Another One Bites The Dust

So I was just sitting here explaining why I thought David “Cheeno” Rheem would come from behind and take the bracelet. At about that time, he went all-in with Ace King against Peter Eastgate’s Ace Queen. Unfortunately, a Queen hit the flop and Cheeno’s Ace King wouldn’t improve. Cheeno was just knocked out.
It’s about 5:20pm and there are now only 6 left at the final table.

So I spent most of the morning just about 30 feet from the final table taking lots and lots of pictures. It’s difficult to keep track of the hands; most of the time I’m not certain which of players are involved. For the most part it’s been pretty low-key. Each player has their contingent of family, friends, and fans who cheer them on.
It’s now 3:00pm, and nobody has busted out yet. That’s probably the most surprising thing for me today. I expected a few people would have busted out by now. I’ve watched as David “Chino” Rheem seems to have lost a few chips. Dennis Phillips has taken a few losses as well, but overall they’re hanging in there.
BREAKING NEWS!
As I was writing this entry, two players just got knocked out: Craig Marquis, and Kelly Kim. Craig was first to get knocked out, followed by Kim on the very next hand.
