Play folded to David Pham in middle position who moved all in for his last 155,000. Isaac Baron moved all in from the button and Christian Iacobellis announced he was also all in from the small blind!

Pham: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Baron: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Iacobellis: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}

The board fell {8-Spades}{J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} and the pocket tens of Baron hold. He has both opponents covered with Pham being eliminated in 10th place for $47,501 and Iacobellis in 9th place for $66,403.

Our First Flop

It took almost 10 hands before we saw our first flop on the feature table. Action started when Brian Lemke raised to 76,000 from early position. It folded back to Fabian Quoss who re-raised to 250,000 from the small blind and lemke made the call.

On a flop of {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}, Quoss bet 300,000 and Lemke took nearly a minute before making the call. Quoss then shoved his remaining 1.4 million into the middle when the {4-Diamonds} arrived on the turn. Lemke tanked again before finally releasing his hand.

Lemke is down to about 600,000.

Still Tight

Play on the televised table hasn't changed. We've yet to see a flop as a single preflop raise remains enough to steal the blinds and antes.

The nature of TV production is that things take time. The players have been miked up, completed bio sheets, cameras have been prepared and lighting checked. The players have taken their seats and hopefully we're not too far away from recommencing this final table. Stay tuned!
