Event 13 (Day 2): Diaz Bubbles, Field Now ITM

Event 13 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Championship Event)
$500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool
Level 18 (Blinds 4,000/8,000/1,000)
Total Entries: 466
Players Remaining: 45
Chip Average: 310,000

The 2016 Isle Poker Open Championship Event is now in the money!  With (47) players remaining, Ira Silverman would shove his stack of less than (10) bigs in a blind versus blind scenario.  DD Kim would call him from the big, and her A♠ K would best Silverman's 10♣ 6 on a runout of 4 J♠ 4♠ 8 8♠.

Play would then be hand-for-hand, which lasted (14) hands, and approximately (50) minutes.  There were only two hands over that time span where a player was at risk for their tournament life, both times the short stack survived.  Then just a few minutes ago, Ronald Tourony opened to 12,000, with David Diaz shoving from the button for just over 70,000.  Action folded around and Tourony made the call:

Tourony: A K♠
Diaz: A♣ J♣

Runout: 7 4 3♣ 8 8♠

Diaz quickly exited the tournament area, and after all of the hands were finished at the other tables, the "in the money" announcement was made to the players remaining.  There will be another (45) minutes of play before those still in head on dinner break (6:30-7:30pm).
