The three remaining players have returned from their dinner break and everyone left has a decent shot at adding some sweet, sweet wrist candy to their poker collection.

Here’s a look at the chip counts, courtesy of www.worldseriesofpoker.com:

1. Kyle Kloeckner	$1.1 million
2. Max Pescatori	$690,000
3. Greg Hurst	$500,000

 

 

After waiting hours for the seventh elimination we have our fourth, fifth and sixth place bustouts less than an hour later. Kyle Hegeman, who has several WSOP cashes to his name, will not be getting his first WSOP bracelet in this event. Same goes for Chicago native Jonathan Depa. Finally, one of the most well-known names at the final table, Allen Cunningham, has also been eliminated.

Depa D-Listed (Sixth)

Jonathan Depa was extremely short-stacked while playing Hold’em and with approximately half his chips in the small blind he decided to go all-in. Max Pescatori called and showed K-J. All Depa could manage was 6-3.

The board came down Q-J-4-6-10 to give Depa his walking papers. He will receive $48,876 for coming in sixth place.

Hegeman Hacked (Fifth)

The Kyle Hegeman tangled with Kyle Kloeckner and ended up on the rail when all was done and said. In his final hand Hegeman bet $80,000 from the small blind and both Kyle Kloeckner and Max Pescatori called. The flop came J 5 4 and Hegeman opted to move all-in for his last $120,000.

Kloeckner called and Pescatori got out of the way. The players flipped over their cards:

Hegeman: A K J 9

Kloeckner: 6 3 9 8

The dealer turned the 7 to give Kloeckner a straight and the rest was history. Hegeman will receive $62,015 for making it to fifth place.

Cunningham Crushed (Fourth)

Persistent WSOP bracelet winner Allen Cunningham will not be adding another one today. Cunningham was crippled in a large pot against Max Pescatori where there was no showdown and then got all-in several hands later against Kyle Kloeckner.

Cunningham had J-9-7-2 while Kloeckner threw down A-A-10-3. The board came A 7 6 5 3 and that was enough to finish Cunningham's day. Cunningham will receive $76,205 for coming in fourth. 

Players are now on a 60 minute dinner break.
