There has just been a massive double elimination at the final table!
It started with Dylan Honeyman jamming for 375,000 from middle position. Corey Kempson, on Honeyman��s direct left, then jammed for 1.5 million. The action folded around to Vincent Chua in the small blind and he went deep into the tank. He tried to get some information of Kempson, and ultimately decided to call off his stack of 900,000.

Honeyman:
Kempson��s rail were calling for a queen, but when the dealer flipped over a flop, they started calling for a spade.
Turn:
Kempson had made his straight and celebrated with his rail as the dealer rolled over a meaningless on the river. Honeyman officialy finishes in 7th place, collecting $33,500, while Chua takes 6th for $43,800.
Kempson is up to 2,800,000.
The five remaining players have locked up $54,200.
Dylan Honeyman opened with raise to 125,000 on the button before Corey Kempson moved all in for 700,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded but Honeyman snap-called as the cards were on their backs!
Honeyman:
Kempson:
Kempson was in trouble with his tournament life on the line, and received no help on the flop. The turn was an important card as Kempson picked up outs to a straight, and wouldn��t you know it, the peeled off on the river to the roar of delight from Kempson��s entourage!
��F**k you Edison!�� Kempson yelled across the table, in jest, clearly some sort of inside joke. In any case, Kempson copped a pretty firm warning from staff about his language as his stack was doubled to 1.4 million, leaving Honeyman on 245,000.
Gabriel Messo has just been eliminated in 8th place!
He moved all in for 460,000 from under the gun plus one. Luke Spano, on his direct left, took his time before jamming for just 1 million. The rest of the table got out of way and Messo was at risk.

Messo needed some help, but it never came on a board.
Dennis Huntly opened it up to 115,000 from under the gun plus one. Dylan Honeyman then three-bet all in to 440,000 from Huntly's direct left. The action flew around to Edison Nguyen in the big blind and he flat-called. Huntly tank-folded and Honeyman was at risk.
Though the risk wasn't that high considering his was up against Nguyen's... .
The board ran out and it was a chopped pot.
Huntly revealed he folded an ace, which with the run out, meant he would have eliminated both players.
Dylan Honeyman has had an eventful couple of minutes. The next hand following his chopped pot with Edison Nguyen, Honeyman moved all in once again from early position. Action folded around the table to Wayde Rickhuss in the big blind who snap-called!
Honeyman:
Rickhuss:
Honeyman had live cards but couldn��t connect on the flop. The turn was another brick as Honeyman was one card away from elimination.
The dealer burned and revealed the to the roars from the railbirds as Honeyman spiked a pair to double up and stay alive! He��s now up over one million in chips and has a little breathing room as Rickhuss slips back to around 700,000.
Gabriel Messo opened with a raise to 105,000 from middle position and action folded around to Wayde Rickhuss in the big blind who reached for chips and made it 325,000 to go. Messo responded by moving all in, and with most of his stack already in the middle, Rickhuss gave a shrug and called it off.
Messo:
Rickhuss:
The board ran out to give an emphatic double up to Rickhuss, jumping him to over 1.2 million, leaving Messo with just 400,000.
It was slow going for a couple of orbits at the beginning of this level. Then we saw our first river since returning from the break.
It started with Edison Nguyen opening to 115,000 from under the gun. Luke Spano called from the small blind and the dealer spread out a flop. Spano and Nguyen checked here an a was deal on the turn.
