Play in the $1000 + $100 WPT Warm-up shows no signs of slowing down as players are being eliminated at a very quick rate. In just the last level and a half the field has diminished to 12 players and the final table is now in sight.
Here are the most recent eliminations:
- 17th place: Chanracy Khun, $2,260.00
- 16th place: Ami Alibay, $2,260.00
- 15th place: Grant Fallis, $2,670.00
- 14th place: Griffin Benger, $2,670.00
- 13th place: Ari Engel, $2,670.00
