Lee Abramson Eliminated in 11th Place ($24,949)

We're down to one table here in Choctaw as Lee Abramson was just eliminated in 11th place by chip leader Jeff Fielder.

It happened when action folded to Abramson on the button and he raised to 110,000. Fielder then three-bet to 240,000 from the small blind, the big got out of the way, and Abramson made the call.

When the flop came down , Fielder bet 200,000, Abramson raised to 450,000, and Fielder moved all in. Abramson, who had about 975,000 back, thought for about 45 seconds before committing his entire stack.

Abramson:
Fielder:

Fielder flopped trips, but Abramson was drawing live with his flush draw. The turn missed Abramson, and the did the same to send him home in 11th place. You may recall that Abramson was involved in a controversial slowroll on Day 1a, though Abramson later cleared up the matter when he told PokerNews:

"I did not intent to slow roll my opponent. I believed there was still action behind as he had shoved many times after previous action and had raised when there was no action. Because of a hand within the hour, where not asking for a chip count was part of the reason action was affected, I asked for the count. Once action was over, I turned over my cards before my opponent. While I play in few WSOP events, I play poker regularly and am very familiar about poker ettiquette. If I was incorrect about the action behind me then I agree my action was improper and wrong. It was not my intention to play anything but honorable poker. I am sorry for the way I handled the call."

Kristi McFarland opened for a raise from the cutoff, making it 250,000 to go. Drazen Ilich three-bet all in for effectively 615,000 on her direct left, and the action folded back to McFarland.

McFarland put both hands on her head and stared down at the felt. Finally, after 90 seconds of agonizing thought, she committed the rest of her chips.

McFarland:
Ilich:

The flop came , giving McFarland a fairly meaningless pair of fives and Ilich an open-ended straight draw. The on the turn was very meaningful though, because it gave McFarland trips and took away six of Ilich's outs.

The bricked on the river, and McFarland let out a long sigh of relief. She doubled to 1.275 million chips, while Ilich slipped to 1.045 million.

Player	Chips	Progress
Krissi McFarland	1,275,000 550,000	550,000
Drazen Ilich	1,045,000 -590,000	-590,000

Cliff Stewart opened to 105,000 from under the gun, Bryan Campanello three-bet to 215,000 on his direct left, and the action folded back to Stewart, who double-fisted 550,000 across the betting line. Campanello studied the bet, then turned his glance to his own stack.

Campanello removed his hand away from his mouth, then uttered, "All in."

Stewart screwed up his face, then rechecked his cards. He took no more than 10 seconds to think, then folded.

The very next hand, Drazen Ilich raised to 125,000 out of the small blind. Stewart three-bet to 350,000 from the big blind, and Ilich tank-folded.

We just saw back-to-back hands that resulted in Jeff Fielder's stack balloon to over 5 million while Dale Roesel's dropped to nearly 2 million.

In the first, Fielder opened for 105,000 from the cutoff and then called when Roesel three-bet to 215,000 from the small blind. Both players checked the flop, and then Fielder called a bet of 235,000 on the turn. When the completed the board on the river, Roesel slowed down with a check and then called when Fielder bet 345,000. The latter tabled for a straight and a frustrated Roesel mucked his cards.

In the next hand, Fielder opened for 105,000 under the gun and then called Roesel's three-bet to 235,000 from the button. Fielder proceeded to check the flop, prompting Roesel to bet 240,00 and say, "You can't fold. You know you'll get there."

Sure enough, Fielder called and then both players checked the turn. They did the same on the river and Fielder revealed , which prompted Roesel to muck. "I had kings back to back," Roesel said. "Awesome."

Player	Chips	Progress
Jeff Fielder	5,550,000 2,000,000	2,000,000
Dale Roesel	2,050,000 -1,225,000	-1,225,000
