End of Level Six News: Eames & Carter Out; Miles & Walsworth Over 30k

The tournament has peaked at 2,949 entries and at present there are 1,089 players left. That attendance figure surpasses that of last years event meaning that our prize money is a little bit larger.

We have $2,654,100 in the prize fund and 297 players will receive a guaranteed $1,937 for their troubles. The top prize is going to be $464,464, but we are going to have wait a few days more before we find out whose bank balance that will be displayed on.

In other news the Englishman Mathew Frankland has late regged and doubled up immediately. Frankland found {A-} {K-}, Jay Perkins found {Q-} {Q-} and Frankland out-flipped and out-flopped him. Two Englishmen who are no longer in the tournament are Daniel Carter and John Eames. Both players refusing to tell us how they were eliminated because their departures were too embarrassing. There you are then.

Timothy Miles and Peter Walsworth are two players in the Gold section with over 30,000 in chips. Miles just eliminated an opponent holding {A-Hearts} {8-Hearts} versus {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} when the board ran out {K-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {5-Spades} {3-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} moving Miles up to 30,000. Walsworth has 36,000.
