The RG Main Event field is now down to the final two tables with the elimination of Norm Glueckert (pictured below) in 19th place. Glueckert lost his last 80,000 to Todd Kennedy when his 1010♠ did not catch up to Kennedy's AA in a preflop confrontation.

The field drew for seats and when play resumed, Rudy Schultz (pictured) was eliminated by Rodney Spriggs on when he called all-in with the "highway hand." Spriggs shoved the button for 195,000 holding 109♣ and Schultz thought for a moment before calling for 150,000 with A10♠.

The Q♠85 flop gave Spriggs extra outs and he hit the J turn to pull ahead. The 3♣ river bricked and Schultz is out. Below are the chip counts and seating assignments for the final 17 players.
