Yesterday the pressure of the $5,000 event #25: 6-Handed No-Limit Hold’em crushed most headliners except for John Racener that will start the final table with the shortest stack. The remaining players will battle for the top $562K prize.

In the $1,500 event #27: H.O.R.S.E., Anthony Zinno is again in the spotlight as he took the lead. Now 18 players remains in an event that registered 594 entries.
