Dunbar Departs

Level 25 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

James Martini in the small blind min-raised which was enough to put Mark Dunbar in the big blind all in. Dunbar was at risk for 60,000.

Mark Dunbar: 62
James Martini: QQ

Dunbar had little chance against Martini's ladies, especially when the all-spade board of A6579 gave Martini the best flush. Martini is among the chip leaders.

Richard Kerman Eliminated in 27th Place ($11,613)

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Richard Kerman in the small blind moved all in for 1,600,000. Kevin Durgin in the big blind made the call.

Richard Kerman: AJ
Kevin Durgin: AK

It was bad timing by Kerman to apply pressure on the big blind as Durgin had big slick. A king in the window on the board of K76102 confirmed the win for Durgin as Kerman exited the tournament arena.
