A few recent eliminations have brought The Wild $150 into the money, as 117 players remain at their seats with chips in hand, and a cash prize locked in.

We missed the eliminated hand, however we know it is Naghibollah Noori who just missed securing a cash prize, ending his run in 118th place.

Karen Kats

Karen Kats brought the tournament into hand-for-hand play as she made a huge call versus former big-stack Abraham Jungreis, who started the day 3rd in chips. We caught up to the action on the turn, where Karen was looking down at a 3 of Clubs 5 of Diamonds 7 of Diamonds 10 of Clubs board with already over 100K in the pot. She checked first to act, and was met with an over-bet all-in from her opponent. She asked for a count, and the dealer cut out Abraham’s stack of 152K, forcing her into the tank. She weighed out her options, and after some deliberation she finally made the call for around half of her remaining stack. Abraham tabled Ace of Hearts King of Hearts for ace-high, and Karen showed down 5 of Hearts 6 of Hearts for third pair and a gutshot. The river 9 of Clubs was a blank, and Karen scooped the massive pot, sending her opponent to the rail while bringing her chip count up to 645K – good for the current tournament chip lead.

Congratulations to the players in the money!
