Pictured is Greg Raymer, still holding his own although dwindling in chips (I estimate him on 370k).  He just lost quite a few to Gabe Kaplan:

On fifth street they went from threeway to heads up, with Raymer (who on the first round of betting was the raiser) calling Kaplan's 60k bet.
Raymer:  X X
Kaplan:  X X
Sixth street brought a for Raymer, who checked to Kaplan who'd received a and bet it without hesitation a second time.  Quite a bit of hesitation from the former Main Event Champion - this is when I took this photo - before a call of the 60k and a reluctant pass when the river brought him whatever unhelpful card it brought him.

Note that his Pokerstars-covered getup is of the .net rather than .com variety over here...

Freddy Deeb - looking like he may be the frontrunner in the Tour de France.

The players in this $50k HORSE event are just coming to the end of a short 20 minute (I think) break.

Meanwhile, another event is coming to a close, albeit it on a standard table and away from the limelight, and Chad Brown is one of the 4 or 5 remaining players.

As the only 'big name' left, and I know this sounds like an odd question, can anyone guess which of these seats is his?

[snoopy1239]

Still 14 players left, Mark Gregorich (a well known American cash player) is the current shortstack.

Greg Raymer is OUT.

Watching the outer table earlier was one Mr Dave Colclough, seemingly in good spirits chatting away to his Daniel-san, Brian 'The Rookie' Wilson.

Whilst I was nattering away with Dave, a random lady approached and asked to shake Dave's hand due to seeing him on TV.

Dave was a highly embarrassed and I inquired as to how much he paid her.

She didn't request an autograph though, just human contact.

and the second is John Hanson, who I know nothing about except that he was the end of Day 2 chip leader.

If my memory is correct, and I think it is, I saw him playing the Bellagio Big Game (yes, THAT game) last December. Problably not a tournament player by any means, since his Hendon Mob Database record sheet is almost empty.

Before you ask how Woody Deck is doing, look who I found. Yep, the Deckster is here in the flesh, eagerly supporting his buddy who is currently in the last four of the Omaha Hi-Lo Freezeout with The Chad.

Cooeee Mr Deck.

Freddy Deeb - looking like he may be the frontrunner in the Tour de France.

He looks like Mini Me from austin powers.

H  blinds 20k/40k

Bruno Fitoussi raises Kenny Tran's big blind, getting a call.  Flop:  Double check.  Turn: and the Frenchman, seemingly in disguise, foregoing his usual suave look for a red T-shirt and a fisherman's hat (why not go the whole hog, I say, and add the fake nose and glasses), takes it with an 80k bet.

David Singer raises on the button to 80k.  Small blind Kenny Tran calls. 
Flop:  .  Tran checks, Singer bets 40k and gets instacalled.
Turn:    Tran bets out 80k now, and Singer calls after some brief deliberation.
River:    Check-check
Kenny Tran shows the
David Singer shows the , which pair of fours takes it down.  The double check on the river was very quick - I wonder if David Singer could have called a second bet on the end from the persistent small blind...
