Make sure to check back tomorrow at 3pm PDT where we will play down until just the final nine remain. There's no time cap for tomorrow, which means it could be a very long, or possibly short, day of play.

Instead the player instantly mucked and the dealer moved the button and dealt out one final hand. One that included the last of Negreanu's chips in the middle. "He's a Daniel hater," Erick Lindgren said about the player who didn't give Negreanu a chance to possibly play tomorrow. There was some discussion about whether Negreanu's hand would be turned over to see if he might win the hand, but you have to be at the table to play your hand. If you aren't, your cards go in the muck, and that's what happened to Negreanu's final hand.
Still, the million-plus chips Negreanu has in the PLO w/rebuys event might provide some consolation for the handful he lost at the end of play in the $10,000 Limit Hold'em event.

Brodie turned over for the set on the river and when Binger slapped his cards down on the felt it sure looked like he held pocket fives. Meaning he'd flopped a full house and Brodie hit his two-outer on the river. Brodie now sits with 43,000 while Binger was crippled and now has just 6,000.
