John Dutchak Eliminated by Rep Porter

A case of bad timing sent John Dutchak to the rail, as he moved all-in on a flop of A-K-J, while Rep Porter was sitting with the stone cold nuts, Q-10.

Porter made the call and Dutchak failed to improve, as the turn and river blanked out.

After the hand, Porter upped his chip count to 2,050,000.

The Daily Phil Hellmuth Appearance

Phil Hellmuth has just walked around the final 19 tables, wishing good luck to his friends and others who are still alive in the Main Event. Don't be surprised if he reappears tomorrow for the same reason.

He stopped by Chad Brown's table to say hello, and Thor Hansen jokingly asked, "Hey, Phil. How much do you have?" Phil responded, "How much do I have where?" Like most players in the Main Event, Hellmuth busted on Day One.

Hellmuth stopped by most of the tables, talking to Billy Baxter, Berry Johnston, and Huckleberry Seed among others.
