There were a flurry of eliminations right after dinner, but then action slowed down to a crawl for most of Level 24.  We then lost Ryan Bunes after he and Tom Gity got it all-in with similar sized stacks, with Bunes's Q Q losing a race on the river to Gity's A Q (ace on the river).  Ryan Gianquitti busted just moments afterwards, and the field was consolidated to three tables:
