Michael Binger and Bruno Fitoussi are in no rush to get things over with. Both players are playing small pot poker and taking considerable time with each decision. Each player has at least 40 big blinds at this point, but with their styles of play, the blinds won't factor much into the outcome. It's going to take both players making a relatively strong hand for this one to end.

Shannon Shorr is all in with A-J against the pocket eights of Michael Binger. The board rolls out 9-3-3-9-7 and Shorr is eliminated in 3rd place. Shorr takes home $92,690 for his efforts over the past two days.

The picture, at right, taken moments after being eliminated, pretty much sums up Shannon's attitude at the moment. *

The players are now on a short break before heads up play begins.

* J/K That's a completely different, older photo of Shannon. For all I know he could have been in a good mood when it was taken.

James Mackey is all in and covered by just 8,000 from Michael Binger. Mackey shows K8 and Binger turns over AQ. 

The flop comes K43 and Mackey takes the lead. Binger looks distraught knowing that he will have to come back with just 8,000, but the turn gives him a chance with the 2. Binger must now catch any Ace or Five to win the hand and the river is the 5 giving Binger the wheel and eliminating Mackey in 4th place. Mackey takes home a not too shabby $50,565.
