Back in Las Vegas at the 2006 World Series of Poker:

Earlier today I entered Game #44 of the 2006 World Series of Poker. It was one of those days when I never had a hand to play. The $1500 in chips that I started with lasted long enough to put me in about 240th place out of a starting field of 481. At least I have WSOP Game #45 tomorrow to play before returning to New York.

While I was playing at table 20, the 2006 WSOP Main Event resumed play an hour into Game #44. The goal at the Main Event for today was to play down from 27 players to the 9 players who will be at the Final Table of the 2006 WSOP on Thursday. At this moment there are only 12 players remaining and they are on a dinner break.

While Jaime Gold's lead has continued to grow during the day, the following people left the Main Event today:

13 William Thorsson, won $907,128
14 Luke Chung, won $907,128
15 Kevin Aaronson, won $907,128
16 Sirous Jamshidi, won $659,730
17 Jeff Lisandro, won $659,730
18 David Einhorn, won $659,730
19 Dustin Holmes, won $494,797
20 Parhlad Friedman, won $494,797
21 Kevin O'Donnell, won $494,797
22 Lee Kort, won $494,797
23 Rob Roseman, won $494,797
24 Eric "Rizen" Lynch, won $494,797
25 Mark Garner, won $494,797
26 Siddharth Jain, won $494,797
27 Richard Wyrick, won $494,797
