Freddie Ellis keeps climbing the counts. His latest chips came at the expense of Jan Sorenson, who folded on the river to a raise from Ellis after leading the betting the whole way. Sorenson felt his board of (X-X) / / (X) was no match for Ellis' (X-X) / / (X) and folded, preserving just 600 chips. They went into the middle the next hand. Sorenson survived but has only 4,000 chips.
