Jean-Robert Bellande is out of the tournament. Again, details are sparse. We're sending an operative to the heads-up PLO tables downstairs with an offer of spotting Bellande an extra card every hand if he'll give us the story of his elimination.

No sooner had Bellande left the room than Vivek Rajkumar turned up and took his seat. Rajkumar was the winner very late last night of the $10,000 Heads-Up Championship and there was some idle speculation as to whether he would skip the Main Event as a result.
