Cotton Snuffer Just Went to Bed Late on Day 1c
Cotton Snuffer Just Went to Bed Late on Day 1c

Calls of "seat open!" are ringing through the room, as an epidemic of eliminations has swept through the Borgata.

In the last few minutes we've rushed around to record the grisly details, as straights have felled sets, and overpairs have overcome their undermanned counterparts.

We're not sure whether players are simply getting reckless as a result of fatigue, or the cards are colluding to create collisions, but here on Day 1c, stacks are being seized seemingly every few seconds.

Cotton Snuffer - A.K.A. "Heisenberg" - was one of the recent victims, after his {Q-}{Q-} fell to an opponent's {a-}{q-} on a {a-}{2-}{7-} flop. Snuffer raised before the flop, and responded to the other player's 10,000 flop bet with an all-in shove suspecting he was on a move, but in a rare experience for this series' top earner so far, he held the second-best hand when it was all said and done.

Just 17 tables remain here in Event 9, as the killing fields continue to claim additional casualties.
