Play resumed on two tables of five players and before long, short-handed play caused confrontation that led to a player elimination. Jason Sagle was pretty short and had a hard time staying afloat with a 100K big blind coming around every five hands. In his last hand, he open shoved the very respectable 
and Michael Watson in the small blind called with 
. To make matters worse, the flop came queen high! Although Sagle picked up a gutshot on the turn, he was ultimately forced to leave the table in 10th, good for $43,000. Congratulations!
Sagle’s departure meant that the 9-handed final table could be formed. Here is the seating assignment:
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Seat | Siège |
|---|---|---|
| Geoffrey | Hum | Table 63 -Seat 1 |
| Kristen | Bicknell | Table 63 -Seat 2 |
| Kelly | Minkin | Table 63 -Seat 3 |
| Mike | Leah | Table 63 -Seat 4 |
| Martin | Jacobson | Table 63 -Seat 5 |
| Michael | Robar | Table 63 -Seat 6 |
| Joseph | Cheong | Table 63 -Seat 7 |
| Adedapo | Ajayi | Table 63 -Seat 8 |
| Michael | Watson | Table 63 -Seat 9 |
Shortly after play resumed, Mike Leah got busted in a hand that we missed. Leah picked up a $10K pay jump by appearing on the final, and leaves with $53,000. Well done!
Michael Robar also reached the end of the road. His 8th place finish netted him $67,000. Excellent work! After the next bust, players will be moved to the official WPT 6-handed final table and a stream will be set up with a 30-minute delay. Stay tuned for more info!
