A Flurry of Activity
There's been a flurry of activity since the players came back from dinner. Vietnam was crippled by Team Israel on Outer Table 4, survived two double-ups but then was finally eliminated by Team Israel.
Then on the other side of the set, Tony G subbed in for Gary Benson and got Team Australia's last chips in on a board with a club draw. Team Israel, represented by Michael Mizrachi and a team which had even fewer chips than Team Australia, had flipped trip kings and called.
"Of course Tony G got his chips in on a draw!" said host Robert Williamson III. The problem for Tony G was that Mizrachi had two blockers to the club draw. The board blanked out, forcing Team Australia to pay off another double-up.
The G looks a little disappointed.
