Hughes and Volpe Enter Before Break
Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Paul Volpe and Ryan Hughes just entered the tournament in the minutes before the players went on a 15-minute break.
Hughes is the leader in the WSOP Player of the Year standings, and one of the players he's looking to hold off is third-place John Monnette, currently in the chip lead here. That will be an interesting subplot to watch as this tournament rolls on.

Deeb Rocketing Up the Counts
Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Three players checked sixth street with the following boards, each having some strong possibilities:
Todd Brunson: /
Felipe Ramos: /
Shaun Deeb: /
On the river, Deeb bet and got called by Brunson. Ramos thought for about 30 seconds and mucked.
"Very thin," Deeb said. "Queens up."
He revealed 
for a flush, and Brunson did not appear amused. Ramos flashed 
for his own queens in the hole.
"I guess I got lucky then," Deeb said with a smile.
At a neighboring table, Jean "Prince" Gaspard grabbed a seat.
