Goodbye, Hearts and Diamonds; Hello, Clubs and Spades!

So much for a drawn-out quarterfinals on the red side of the bracket. Sam Farha and Huck Seed needed just more than fifteen minutes to knock off their opponents. They will meet in the semifinals later this afternoon.

Because of the rapid eliminations of David Williams and David Oppenheim, the entire schedule for the day has been accelerated. The black side quarterfinals, originally scheduled for 1:30pm local time, have been moved up to 12:15pm (assuming that the players can be brought to the set in time). That's in about half an hour.

We'll update the blog with further details on the schedule as they are made known to us by the producers of the tournament.
