Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Level 18 is in the books, which means there's just one more level left in Day 4. Before we get to that, the remaining players will take a 20-minute break.

Here's a look at some Level 18 highlights:

Paul Volpe closes in on two million.
Jeremy Allen, Teddy Sheringham, Michael "Timex" McDonald, Micah Raskin, Chris Moorman, Christina Lindley, Johnny Chan and Terrence Chan all hit the rail.
The field was reduced to just a dozen women remaining.

Be back in 20 minutes as we look to knock off another level of the Main Event and bring a close to Day 4. While you wait, take a look at what we'll be doing.

Negreanu Slipping, Young Doubles

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user196975]

A very short-stacked Ryan Young moved all in for 28,000 and Daniel Negreanu called.

Negreanu: {A-Hearts} {6-Spades}
Young: {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}

The board ran {J-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} and Young doubled up.

"Make sure he pays me," Young said jokingly to the dealer.

"I paid you," Negreanu said smiling.

Baron's Kings Sink Johnny Chan

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Shamus

Preflop betting between Johnny Chan and Isaac Baron left the two-time WSOP Main Event champion all in with {7-Clubs} {7-Spades} and in dire straits against Baron's {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} .

The dealer burned a card and delivered the flop — {10-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {K-Hearts} — Top set for Baron, and very bad news for Chan. The dealer went through the motions of dealing the {9-Spades} turn and {6-Spades} river, ending thigs for Chan. Meanwhile, Baron has now chipped up over 1 million.

With Huck Seed's bustout earlier today, Chan's knockout means the last former WSOP Main Event champion in the field has been eliminated.

Isaac Baron	1,070,000 765,000	765,000

Johnny Chan	Busted

Moorman No More, Man

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user196676]

The player under the gun opened to 16,000 only to have Patrick Halter three-bet to 41,000. Action folded all of the way around the table to Chris Moorman in the big blind. Moorman thought for a bit before pushing out a four-bet to 98,000 total.

The original raiser got out of the way and Halter announced that he was all in. Moorman tanked for about two minutes before announcing a call and moving his remaining 455,000 into the center.

Moorman: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Halter: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}

Moorman was behind and in need of help. The camera crews flocked to the area and once they were in place, the board was dealt out quickly. It came down {6-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {2-Spades} {4-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and Chris Moorman was sent to the rail. Halter's stack has now jumped over a million, as he is sitting on 1,350,000.

River: {j-Clubs}

Lindley's Run Ends

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Shamus

Christina Lindley has been playing a short stack all day, having barely survived the bubble bursting earlier in the afternoon. Meanwhile Ben Alcober has been on Lindley's left all day. Alcober was the first player to 1 million on Day 3, and entered today with nearly 790,000. He's struggled on Day 4 and had a below average stack himself when the following hand took place.

It folded around to Lindley in the small blind who checked her cards then set out her remaining stack of about 85,000. Alcober then checked his and announced a call. Lindley had {A-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} and would need help against Alcober's {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds} . But the board came {J-Spades} {8-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {7-Spades} {9-Hearts} , and Lindley is out, around 300 other players having cashed before she finally ran out of chips.
