The red section of the Brasilia room has been completely broken and the remaining players have now been condensed to the gold, silver, or bronze sections of the room. This means we are down to the final 64 tables.
Athanasios Polychronopoulos won this very event last year and has managed to outlast about 2,500 competitors again this year.
We caught up with Polychronopoulous looking down at a board of . His opponent checked and Polychronopoulous moved 3,375 into the middle. What he was not expecting was that his opponent would check-raise and it suddenly was 6,900 back to him. Polychronopoulous mucked his hand and the pot was awarded to his opponent.
Polychronopoulous is still healthy, however, sitting on a stack of 46,000.

Dutch Boyd told us that he had 8,600 chips when we came to his table, but when we left, he had a slightly smaller stack.
Action folded to Boyd in the hijack who raised to 1,500. Then, the player in the cutoff moved all-in with a covering stack.
After a short time in the tank, Boyd showed his opponent the and folded.
His opponent also showed Boyd a card, which we couldn't see, but he made a disgusted face, so it must not have been good.

We just saw David 'Doc Sands lose a substantial pot at his table. Before the hand, Sands was sitting on about 34,000 chips.
We know that preflop, an under the gun player put in a fourth bet for 8800, and Sands was left with a decision to call for 5150 more. Eventually, Sands put in the chips and the two players were off to the flop.
The dealer rolled out on the flop, and the under the gun player bet out 8,400. Sands tanked for a little while before folding, and dropping down to 26,000 in chips.
