With just under 500 players left, its not too unheard of to see two big name players sitting at the same table. Its another thing though to have four pros at the same table, but that is the case at Table 43, where Ray Henson, Scott Clements, Bill Chen, and Lex Veldhuis are all residing.
Chris Klodnicki had the last of his money in on the board of 
against one opponent. Klodnicki held the 
and his opponent the 
. The river completed the board with the 
and left Klodnicki in the dust as his opponent scooped the pot.

We caught Eric Lindgren heads up on a board of 
and his opponent facing just one bet left. He was forced to wait about a minute before his opponent finally called and the hands were turned up. Lindgren had the lead with 
against the 
of his opponent and the 
would keep him there.
Lindgren recently married fellow pro poker player Erica Shoenberg and after the hand he started playing with his wedding ring. It must have been good luck because the very next hand Lindgren, first into the pot, raised to 800 preflop, and found three callers.
The flop was 
and the action became what you may call, "nontraditional". After one player checked, Lindgren bet 400, the player immediately to his left called and the second player in position raised, forcing the opponent out of position to fold. Lindgren called but the player who initially flatted Lindgren's bet now felt it was a good time to get in three bets and raised. Both players called.
The turn was the and Lindgren fired out, causing the flop three bettor to now fold. The third player called and the two players went heads up to see the river. Again Lindgren bet and the player behind him just called.
"Have eight eight once in your life," Eric said jokingly when he showed his 
for a full house. Not this time Eric. His opponent showed 
for the nut low and the two players chopped the pot.
Eric now sits at about 5,500

Phil Hellmuth is out.
We didn't catch the action but his recent double-up clearly wasn't enough to keep him around.

A player in late position raised to 800 pre-flop with calls from another player in late position and Hellmuth in the big blind.
The flop came

Sorel Mizzi was down to just about 2800 when he won a hand that essentially doubled him up. Mizzi was in the big blind against an early position opponent and Joe Tehan who limped from the button. Mizzi checked his option and the players took a flop of 
. Mizzi led out for 400, the middle position player called, and Tehan raised to 800 on the button. Mizzi called, and the other player folded, leaving the pros heads up. Both players checked the on the turn and Mizzi bet 800 on the river, the , which was nearly his whole stack. Tehan called, and Mizzi said "full house" tabling which was enough to take the pot. Mizzi now has around 5,000.
