Harout Ghazarian

Harout Ghazarian (Pictured Above) eliminated Willie Wiggins in 7th place for $139,610 when he turned a flush against the turned two pair of Wiggins to send the final six players home for the evening. Ghazarian showed up halfway through the first level of the day, but that was only a minor hiccup on his way to bagging the chip lead with 17,400,000.

Following closely behind Ghazarian is Jacob Ferro (Pictured Below) in second with 16,400,000, Clayton Maguire in third with 10,325,000, Gediminas Uselis in fourth with 8,900,000, Selahaddin Bedir in fifth with 8,700,000, and Anshul Rai in sixth place with just 875,000, good for just six big blinds.

Day 4 started off with twelve consecutive doubles from the short stacks before the final female in the field Kristen Bicknell fell in 15th place for $40,860. Daniel Rezeai was the next casualty when he fell in 14th place for $48,900.

Start-of-day chip leader Scott Levitt went from having one out of every six chips in play to out the door in 13th place for $48,900 after doubling up four different players throughout the first two levels of play.

One of those players, Steve Buckner, doubled up on the first hand of play and rode that momentum all the way to a 12th place finish for $61,935.

Jakob Miegel was the next to fall in 11th place for $61,935 when his turned two pair fell to the rivered straight of Rai. Joseph Cheong lost most of his stack to Selahaddin Bedir when his ace-jack ran into Bedir’s ace-king and headed out the door in tenth place shortly thereafter for $79,630 to take us to the unofficial final table of nine.

Ari Dinov was the first casualty of the unofficial final table when pocket kings were cracked by the ten-eight of Ferro sending the Florida Native out the door in 9th place for $79,630.

After doubling up four separate times as the short stack during day 4, Nicholas Davidson’s Main Event finally came to an end when his ace-queen fell to the pocket nines of Bedir to finish in 8th place for $109,445.

The remaining six players will venture into the Seminole Salon West Ballroom for the streamed final table beginning at 2:00 p.m. EST on December 1st, and the final table will be streamed in its entirety on Twitch, Facebook, and Youtube beginning at 2:30 P.M. EST. Play begins with 4:34 left in level 29 with the blinds at 75,000-150,000 with a 150,000 big blind ante.
