Bill Gazes Eliminated in 24th Place

Bill Gazes - 24th Place
Bill Gazes - 24th Place
After tangling in that monstrous pot with Allen Bari, Bill Gazes was down to under two big blinds. He waited two hands until the big blind hit him before pushing his last 11,000 into the middle. Action had been raised by Bruce Yamron, and Gazes was heads up for his tournament life.

Showdown:
Gazes: {K-Clubs} {9-Hearts}
Yamron: {A-Hearts} {J-Spades}

The board frowned on Gazes, running out {3-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {A-Spades}. With that, our start-of-day chip leader has stunningly been eliminated from the field here in the middle of Day 2. Gazes had trouble getting his big stack moving this afternoon, being chipped down a bit in the early going, with his decline culminating in that crippling confrontation with Allen Bari.
