Action was picked up with cards on their backs with players having gotten their entire stacks in for a pot worth about 600,000.

Timothy Mulroy: {k-}{k-}
Brady Wieland: {a-}{a-}

Wieland's aces held up against the kings and last spring's seventh place finisher was eliminated just short of the money.

Alsup Doubles Up

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Rich Alsup
Rich Alsup

Action was picked up on the turn in a three way pot between Rich Alsup in second position, a player in early position, and a player in the big blind.

The board read {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and action checked to Alsup who bet 20,000. The early position player raised to 60,000, folding out the big blind, and Alsup moved all in for 97,000 total which was called.

Rich Alsup: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

His opponent was drawing dead by the turn and the river {5-Diamonds} did nothing to change the board, giving the MSPT hall of famer a double up.

Chris Anderson

Donnie Phan moved in his final 41,000 from the hijack and in the small blind, Chris Anderson called to put Phan at risk.

Donnie Phan: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Chris Anderson: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} and despite the added equity on the turn with the straight draw, he was unable to improve and found his tournament ending just shy of the money.
