Bubble Bursts
Level 18 has just begun, and the field has snuck into the money. There are 21 players left, each of them guaranteed to earn at least $658 this evening.
Seven-time ring winner Cory Waaland is among the remaining field, and another victory would move him within one of the all-time Circuit lead. Carlos Loving is also still alive, just a few hours removed from a runner-up finish in Event #3. The man who beat him, Martin Ryan, was eliminated in 23rd place.
Blinds are 2,500/5,000 with a 500 ante in the current level, putting the average stack just shy of 19 big blinds. Play will continue tonight until a winner is determined.
