Sklanski is still, very much alive at this point.
Another thing to chew on: Hellmuth is up to 18,000 right now and sat out for about the first 2 odd hours. During that time a LOT of dead money left the tournament. I wonder where he would be if he would have been there and capitalized on some of that action instead of having to make the grand entrance. He actually pulled up to the front of the Rio in a Limousine and ESPN cameras were there to film his exiting the car and entering the building. That seems to me like a very costly publicity stunt (possibly).

update
The dinner break is actually over at 11:15pm EST (now as I type this). Noteable developments; Men Nguyen and Evelyn Ng both busted out before the break at 7:00pm PST. Phil Hellmuth is now the chip leader at the ESPN Feature Table with over 30,000 in chips. And according to Cardplayer, "Action" Dan Harrington is having a petit Filet Mignon from the Rio Steakhouse for dinner. I kid not, that was an actual update. There are approximately 1550 players left in this round. They will play to 65 tables, or 650 players or less.
After the dinner break the structure is 150/300 with a 25 ante

More noteable eliminations:
Antonio Esfandiari
Eric "Edog" Lindgren
Erin Ness (The Maxim Magazine hottie from 2004)
Two big stacks took a beating. Mike "the grinder" Mizrachi just got trounced leaving him with 5,600 in chips, well below what he started with after the dinner break.
Also Sammy Farha who was estimated runner-up in chips had someone double-up through his stack leaving him with 33,000.

John Hennigan is all in against Tim Strayer with a board of 24554. Hennigan turns over 7-4, Strayer A-4, out-kicking Hennigan and sending him packing.
I belive Lederer does play tomorrow, ill have to double check. And I also know Carlos Mortensen was eliminated yesterday, is he South American? With 5600 entrants there is bound to be a few South Americans playing in the main event.

I got the Hennigan update from cardplayer, they may have gotten the hand a bit mixed up. They have done that a few times during yesterday and today leaving you thinking why the hell a pro made such a bad call, only to find out the cards weren't exactly right.
So far, they haven't messed up any actual eliminations though. So Hennigan is most definately out. Ill keep a closer eye on the updates and warn when one seems wrong.

Hennigan´s best 5 were: 44455Poker Player 100 said:
Strayer´s best 5 were: 44455
So no kicker involved.
I think that diablo committed a mistake. Maybe the river wasn´t a 5 or maybe Strayer´s hand was A5.
*edit
Thanks for the correction diablo. There are lots of hands played at the moment and it´s difficult to keep accuracy on every card, so i understand. Anyway what it matters is that Hennigan is out (maybe really they both had the same full house and he didn´t realize. lol).

Oh, and like I posted earlier, they are scheduled to play down to 65 tables. Last night it was somewhere around 2:45am PST. However, at the dinner break tonight, they were 4 tables or 40 players behind the pace. So there's a good chance it could be longer than that this round. Yesterday was about 15 hours.
See post #39 for the explaination of the mistake on the Hennigan hand.
Noteable eliminations: 9:33pm PST
David Williams went out on the first hand following the dinner break. Other eliminations are:
Perry Friedman
Barry Boatman
Max Pescatori
The pace, according to those on site, is starting to pick up pretty good since re-starting following the dinner break.
9:44pm PST
Dewey Tomko eliminated, they're dropping like flies.
9:45pm PST
Phil Gordon nearly doubles up with a set of sevens bringing his chip count to just over 15,000.
Hasan Habib, goes all-in with pocket Queens and is called by A-7. An Ace on the turn sends him to the rail.

I don't know if ill make it all the way, but I'm gonna do what I can. I'm following it for me mainly, just posting here for the rest of you.
9:56pm PST
End of level 5 with 99 tables remaining (990 players). Twenty minute break then level 6 begins.
Cardplayer was wrong about the Hennigan hand. The turn was a J, making the board 245J4. Hennigan had 7-4 for a hand of 444J7, winner had a hand of 444JA from A-4 hole cards. They have done that a lot during the series.
During level 6 play, the blinds are 200/400 with a $50 ante, and the 990 players remaining would make the average stack going into the 6th level 19,000. Some of the better known pros are well above that benchmark at this point.
10:05pm PST-Feature Table
Hellmuth still has a firm grip on the table and has amassed 57,000 in chips at the start of level 6.
10:32pm PST
Cindy Violette is eliminated by a club Flush on the river.
Alright kids, I'm off to bed. I will be checking during the next few hours periodically and will post the good stuff.

Alright guys, I just woke up. The worst news I got was that just after midnight, Phil Hellmuth, Jr. had a terrible hour that culminated in him being all-in against Paul "x-22" Magriel's pocket 7's. Hellmuth didn't improve his A-Qos and was sent packing. Ill post end leader, notebale chipcounts in a few minutes.
Dammit Phil, why? WHY?!?

I am going to start another thread for todays field in this same forum (general). I kinda got the hang of updating toward the middle of this thread so the next one should seem a bit more coherent all the way through, as this one did toward the middle and end.

At cardplayer.com I saw that Jennifer Harman ran into not one, but TWO straight flushes yesterday. Ouch.
Anybody know which site is more accurate concerning the chip counts? I have been following the logs at cardplayer.com, but I noticed that they are different than the one at the official wsop site. One would assume that the official site is correct, but I don't want to assume. Anyone know for sure?

I go to a few different sites along with a couple of forums. Cardplayer is one, but like you said, they have gotten a few numbers wrong and also messed up the hands on a few of their updates.
Jennifer Harman did run into a straight flush, I believe it was runner, runner also. Her husband Marco (I think is his name) Tranielli also ran into runner, runner to be eliminated. Both were strong favorites when their money went into the pot, and both got bad beats laid on them.

Just wondered if anyone knows which, if any, celebrities are still in it? The only ones I have heard mentioned without a subsequent mention of their departure is Rob Mariano from Survivor and Shannon Elizabeth. He wasn't listed in yesterday's chip count, but I don't know if they are listing each and every name. Shannon was listed as surviving the first day at cardplayer.com, but her name isn't on the list at the official website. By the way, I haven't seen Mena Suvari's name any of the three days. I thought she would play for sure. She might have prior commitments.
