Song Eliminated Just Shy of the Money

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Stephen Song raised to 30,000 on the button and Emilien Pitavy called out of the big blind, then nearly grabbed his cards to flip them over before he was warned by other players.

"Yeah don't do it ... actually never mind, just show them," Song joked. The A?7?6? flop came with a min-bet of Pitavy and Song called for the 3,000 he had kept behind.

Stephen Song: K?Q?
Emilien Pitavy: A?9?

The Q? turn gave Song some hope and he flicked his cards closer to the board. However, the J? river was a blank and Song bowed out just shy of the money.

Floor staff then told the dealers to stop after their current hand as they broke a table and verified the open seats. With now confirmed 80 players remaining and 78 set to advance, the tournament will continue in hand-for-hand mode.
