Adam Lippert Eliminated in 10th Place ($10,661)
Joe Caffrey raised to 50,000 from middle position, then Patrick Houchins, sitting to Caffrey's left, swiftly set out a stack of pink (10,000) chips to raise to 200,000. Adam Lippert was next to act, and after checking his cards and thinking a moment, announced he was reraising all in for his last 448,000.
Jerry Van Strydonck was next in line, and had to think a little while before letting his hand go. It then folded back around to Caffrey who got out, then Houchins quickly called. The pair opened their hands:
Houchins
Lippert
The flop hit Houchins, coming , and the turn and river sealed it. Lippert left the table less than pleased, and after he'd stepped away Strydonck commented it probably was a good idea he didn't mention he'd folded .
Lippert is out in 10th, and Houchins will be our chip leader when play resumes tomorrow, his stack now above 1.6 million.
