11:45pm--Final table to begin at 2pm Friday

Join us here for a live coverage of the final table Friday at 2pm. We'll be back with a full wrap-up in just a bit.

11:30pm--Final table chip counts

Karl Hevroy 1,079,000
Angel Guillén -- 572,000
Oliver Rowe -- 412,000
Alejandro De Arruaballena -- 397,000
Waldermar Cogo -- 263,000
Bolivar Palacios -- 167,000
Magno Aragao 153,000
Ron Wasiel -- 134,000
Andre Ventura -- 103,000


11:15pm--Rommer Prado eliminated 10th place ($18,320)

The final table of nine is set, Rommer Prado was just beat in a dirty, dirty way. He pushed all in for nearly 120,000. Karl Hevoy called with Q-J. Prado asked in Spanish, "How can you call with that?" The board ran out Tc-Ts-2h-7d-Qd. The room exploded and our final table players celebrated around Prado's grief. Prado finishes 10th for $18,320.


11:00pm-- Alejandro Bonanata eliminated in 11th place ($18,320)

Making his last stand with Kd-Th, Alejandro Bonanata moved all in from middle position only to run smack into Karl Hevroy's pocket aces. Though the Ks-Js-8d flop paired him up, the Ah on the turn made Hevroy a set, leaving him drawing only to a queen. The river came the 2s, though and Bonanata's tournament came to an end. He'll go home with $18,320 as well as the autographed fossil he earned yesterday by knocking out Greg Raymer.

10:45pm--Octavio Bernardini eliminated in 12th place ($18,320)

As it looks right now, there's no stopping Karl Hevroy, who just added even more to his massive stack by taking out Octavio Bernardini. Their money went in a flop of Qc-Ts-7s, each having hit a piece of it-- Bernardini with Ah-Td for middle pair and Hevroy the Ac-Qd for top pair. There was no help for Bernardini when a deuce hit the turn and an eight the river, leaving him to hit the rail.

10:30pm-- Blinds up!

The blinds have climbed up once more, with our final twelve playing 6,000/12,000 with a 1,000 ante.
