Stein:
We've been waiting for the overcards to crack the small pocket pair in these flips for quite some time, but it was not about to happen here. The board ran out clean for Dempsey as it came 
, giving him a much-needed double.

Laak Eliminated by Kagawa
Phil "Unabomber" Laak was all in preflop holding 
against the 
of Masa Kagawa. A small pocket pair has been gold in these situations, and that'd prove to be the case yet again as the board ran out 
.
Just like that, the Unabomber was eliminated from the tournament; however, he is still hanging around the area and chumming it up with the like of Sorel Mizzi and McLean Karr over at Table #295 . . . which actually just broke.

Dempsey:
Obrestad: 
Dempsey was in big trouble and desperately needed a six to improve his tournament outlook. The 
flop was no help, and neither was the turn. Dempsey needed a six in the river to stay alive, but it was the 
that appeared.
Likewise, Vladimir Shchemelev was recently eliminated from the tournament.
