The eliminations are mounting at a rapid pace. "Payout," has become the word of the day as the dealers inform the floors of each elimination. Here are some more players who've added their name to the list of Level 12 eliminations:

Jared Hamby opened for 2,800 from early position and received a call from Terrance Suyama in the hijack. The latter called a bet from Hamby on the flop, which lead to the on the turn.

This time Hamby opted to slow down with a check, only to check-raise all in when Suyama bet 8,500. To call would cost Suyama his remaining 28K, but he thought better of it and laid down his hand. With that, Hamby broke 90K.
