Event 13 (Day 2): Newman's Twitter Departure

Event 13 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Championship Event)

$500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool

Level 20 (Blinds 6,000/12,000/2,000)

Total Entries: 466

Players Remaining: 23

Chip Average: 607,000

The field continues to shrink, as we are coming up on our first re-draw of the tournament (when 18 players remain).  A lot of the talk at the table has been about the WSOP Main Event final table, with a handful of the players streaming the action on their phone or tablets.  Stewart Newman (Coral Gables, FL) was one of the most recent departures, and his send off was spotted on Twitter seconds ago:

Busto 26th @IsleCasinoPP ME -- didn't really get it going after dinner - @RyanTYFL got me for final nail in coffin
