While I was doing the pictures, there were a few players to hit the rail. Shortly after the FT started, Julius Roque (10th) and Brian Mennis (9th) both went out to big stack Tony Melowsky. Roque was on ace-five and the shortest stack against Mennis with queens and Melowsky with eights. The board ran out to four hearts with Melowsky holding the 8♥ for the double knockout.
A few hands later, Michael Khan also hit the rail for 8th place, but I missed the action. He found a few doubles early on, including winning a race with ace-king over nines, but he bowed out in 8th place.
