. Darryl shoved and after a little thought, Benny made the call.

There are just 10 players remaining in the $1,500 + $150 Second Chance event in the Playground Poker Fall Classic, and that means that it’s time for the Final Table. The new seat assignments are as follows, and during the break in less than 10 minutes we’ll get full counts for all of the players.

The eliminations have been coming almost every hand now that the bubble has burst in the Second Chance. Marco Caza, Sergio Ianetti, Garen Galanti, and Michael Noor have all hit the rail. This means there are just 10 players left – the final table!
We’ll have an update with the redraw momentarily.
Alex Guerrera has been eliminated in 16th place and the other 15 players still in the tournament are all now in the money. The period of hand for hand play on the bubble was quite long, and in the process several players became very short-stacked so we expect the first few players to be eliminated relatively quickly now that they’re in the money.
In fact, during the very next hand, Andrew Macdonald was also eliminated in 15th place ($3,160.00).
The 16 remaining players of Event 14 are on a short chip-up break, as the T500 chips are being raced off. The tournament is now hand-for-hand, as we are on the money-bubble, and Marco Caza is the current big stack, sitting on 488,000.
Here is a look at full chips counts of the final 16 players:
| First Name | Last Name | Seat | Stack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Giancarlo | Santolin | Table 62 - Seat 1 | 200,000 |
| Andrew | Macdonald | Table 62 - Seat 2 | 121,000 |
| Benny | Chen | Table 62 - Seat 3 | 225,000 |
| Alex | Guerrera | Table 62 - Seat 4 | 57,000 |
| Noy | U | Table 62 - Seat 5 | 373,000 |
| Pierre-Paul | Paulin | Table 62 - Seat 6 | 174,000 |
| Michael | Noor | Table 62 - Seat 7 | 191,000 |

Erwan Palanque
Erwan Palanque was holding only a few short blinds when he found himself in the big blind, facing a button-open from Pierre-Paul Paulin. He looked down at a pair and committed the rest of his chips.
Erwan: 
Pierre-Paul: 
The board was not favourable for the small pair, and Pierre-Paul scooped the pot on the 
board to bring Event 14 on the bubble.
Paul Sokoloff
Sergio Iannetti opened to 20,000 from middle position, to which Jason Mandanici-Turcot responded with a 3bet all-in of 84,500. Paul Sokoloff quickly followed up with an all-in for 127,000 from the button, forcing the original raiser out of the hand.
Jason: 
Paul: 
The board of 
stayed clean for Jason and his pair of jacks, and picked up a pot of roughly 200,000 to keep him in the game as we near the bubble.
Paul Sokoloff was left quite short after the hand, and was eliminated in the following hands.
With the recent eliminations of Francois Goulet and Marc-Olivier Carpentier-Perrault, Event 14 has dropped to 18 players, bringing on a full seating redraw. 15 players are scheduled to be paid in this event, so the money bubble is close!
