Bedell and Hook Hit the Rail
The field is already down to the last six tables after frantic opening two hours and the latest players to fall included Tom-Aksel Bedell and Charlie Hook.
Bedell was all-in after the J♣10♥8♣ flop against Bryce Yockey with the A♠K♣J♠6♦ for top pair and a gutshot while Yockey had the K♦K♠Q♠8♦ for the overpair.
The 7♠ turn and 4♣ river were both blanks.
Soon after, Hook was all-in prior to the 8♣6♠5♣ flop and awaited his fate while Yockey and Jim Collopy checked to the 4♠ turn. Yockey bet 150,000 and Collopy called to see the 9♠ on the river.
Yockey used a time bank to check, and Collopy used a time bank to then bet 375,000. No call by Yockey followed and Collopy tabled the A♠J♠10♣9♣ for the nut flush in spades to send the next opponent to the rail from Table 142. Hook exposed his A♦Q♥10♦7♥ briefly and their table broke right after as the field was reduced to the last 48 hopefuls.
