Play at the final table has undoubtedly slowed as players are thinking twice before making any big moves. John Helou was the first to be eliminated at the final table to finish 9th for $540. David Tazbaz went home next in 8th place for $740.

Francois Semaan went heads up against Mykyta Kurilenko, shoving with queen-ten against Kurilenko’s pocket fives. The board read to give Kurilenko two pairs and send Semaan home in 7th for $1,010.

Six players remain.
