4:10pm: Where they came from...

With more than 900 people in the Main Event, you might be wondering where all these people came from. This chart should sort you out.
4:02pm: Shahade making most of what's she has
Level 11 - Blinds 600-1,200 (200 ante)
Jen Shahade was one of the shortest stacks at her table, but she eliminated a player nonetheless.
Josh Goodman moved all-in for 12,900 from the cutoff and Shahade reshoved for 25,000 from the button.
The blinds folded and we had a showdown. Shahade tabled [ac][9c] but Goodman had a dominating [as][qh].
The [Th][9s][5c] flop quickly changed that and Shahade improved to a flush when the [kc] fell on the river. Goodman was eliminated while Shahade chipped up to about 40,000. --AV
3:54pm: Ortiz on the move
Level 11 - Blinds 600-1,200 (200 ante)
Fabian Ortiz comes to this year's PCA a two-time LAPT Main Event champion and with memories of past success here at the Atlantis, having final-tabled the PCA Main Event in 2014 where he finished eighth. The Argentinian is doing well here today, too, having just collected a pot from fellow LAPT player Pedro Madeiras of Brazil.
The hand began with Madeiras opening from late position and Ortiz calling from the cutoff. The flop came [8c][Ah][Td], and after Madeiras continued for 2,800, Ortiz called, bringing the pot to about 14,000. Both checked the [Tc] turn, then Madeiras checked when the [Ts] appeared on the river. Ortiz tossed out a chip to bet 5,000 and Madeiras called, and when Ortiz turned over [Ad][7d] for tens full of aces, Madeiras mucked.
Ortiz is up to 184,000 now -- well over twice the average with 370 players left, while Madeiras has 85,000. --MH
