Paul Khoury Eliminated

Paul Khoury = Busto
Paul Khoury = Busto
On one of the last hands of Stud 8, Paul Khoury busted out. He held two pair, Jacks and nines and was all in against his opponents A-2-3-5 gutshot straight and low draw. His opponent's next three cards were 3-Q-Q. Khoury lost to a bigger two pair.

"Can you believe it?" said Khoury. "I lost to runner-runner two pair!"

Mel Judah's Chip Count Error

I incorrectly listed Mel Judah's chip count at 25,000. That was an error and typo. At the time, Judah had 2,500 and not 25,000.

Billy the Croc was following along with the coverage of event #3 at PokerNews.com and nearly jumped out of his seat when he saw that Judah had 25,000. He called up a few of his friends to tell them about Judah's run. One of them mentioned that Judah won two WSOP bracelets in Stud, so they were not surprised with his progress. However, the chip count they saw was incorrect.

Since the error, Mel Judah's stack jumped to 4,600 and is now at 8,500.
