Patrick Longpré – fresh off his 4th place finish in Event #11 last night – has been among the well-stacked players for much of the day, and the rich just got richer as Patrick has removed Nicolas Cimon from the tournament in a pot bloated by and early raise and call.
Action started with a middle position raise to 20K, which was called by Casey Hansen. Action folded around to Patrick in the sb, who decided to raise all-in. Nicolas thought for some time before going all-in under, and both of the initial raisers’ chips went in to the pot.

The board runout had nothing at all for Nicolas, who went out in 16th for $160 – and Patrick’s holdings increased by about 75K.
Since that hand, another 3 players have been eliminated and there are just 12 remaining.
