The best known of that lot must be Brian Hastings who took over $5million from "Isildur" in two controversial on-line sessions 5 years ago.
I think we still have 4 female players left (at least) - Maria Ho, Mikiyo Aoki (runner up in the ladies event), Darlene Lee and Marcia K untz (no sniggering at the back. Bet ESPN are hoping she disappears quietly and they don't have to keep mentioning her name!)
While I was typing the above, Darlene Lee has gone (113th) and so has one of the GB contingent, Christopher Sly. That means we are down to Nelson with 111 players still in contention
With the departure of Greg Himmelbrand in 100th place, the money jumps become more and more significant. The WPT player of the year Mukul Puhuja was also one of the recent departures (his brother Vinny also cashed yesterday). Himmelbrand's exit hand would have been shouted down as "rigged" had it happened online. He had AK, Robert Park had Queens and David Yingling pocket kings. The flop came down J-10-9, turn a 4 and river an 8 to give Park the straight.
91st-99th will win $61,313, there's an 11K jump for the 81st-90th players and another over $13K when you get to the next nine.
Trash talking Curtis Rystadt has gone in 99th and Mats Karlsson has gone as well, and Michael McGonnagal has just bust by running into quads.
I've been looking at Mr Lightbourne's first name - the WSOP are using Iaren, Hendon Mob are split between Iaran & Iaron! However, his twitter feed spells it as Iaron so that's what I'll be going with from here on.

Yikes, he was drawing thin there, with 3 of the Kings out.
Into the last hour of play (they're only playing half of Level 25 tonight).
Mark Newhouse is now the chip leader, retaking that position after knocking out Gianfranco Visalli. The Man of Kent was knocked out despite getting it all in with a dominating AK against last year's November Niner's KQ. The board had both a King and a Queen and Visalli's fate was sealed.
Day 5 is over and our hero has managed to survive with just over a million chips and will return at 8pm our time tonight for Day 6.
79 players remain, with the current payout line at $85K or so, which is almost double what Ryan received for making his final table a couple of weeks ago
Full update later on, out to get some fresh air (yes, curious concept to a poker player I know)
Genuinely excited for Stu - very best of luck Thanks to FCHD for the updates - I am now home after three weeks in hospital and this thread was one of the main highlights of each day. Posted by SoLack
In Response to Re: WSOP 2014 - reports, results and discussions **** Day 5, Stu Rutter in final 93, $61K locked up. 4 other Brits remain **** : hope you're ok paul Posted by aussie09
Thanks for asking - yes still recovering but had cellulitis in the foot which cdnt be treated by oral anti-biotics and as am diabetic can become dangerous if not cleared up.
At the end of Day 5 there are just 79 players chasing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and it is last years 9th placed finisher, Mark Newhouse who has the chip lead overnight. Newhouse has 7.4 million, more than he had at the end of Day 7 when he advanced to last year's November Nine.
Kyle Keranen has been near the top of the listings all day, and he ended up 2nd with 6.7m and Scott Palmer lies third with 6.6m.
Brazilian Bruno Politano held the lead for a while and now is top non-American in 4th, while best of the Euro contingent is Androni Larrabe in 5th.
It's promising to see 4 Brits still in at this late stage - two have good stacks (Iaron Lightbourne, 9th with 5m & Craig McCorkell 11th with 4.3m) and two have a below average stack (Paul Senter (the WSOP have now properly marked him as GB rather than Iran!) 57th with 1.35m and Stuart Rutter 65th with 1.1m). It could easily have been six as Gianfranco Visalli & Lee Taylor were both knocked out in the last 30 minutes of the day.
Also knocked out late on (very very late on) was Mikiyo Aoki. Her departure in 83rd meant that Maria Ho has, for the second time, earned the honoraty sobriquet of "last woman standing". Ho comes back with the shortest stack of all (435k, less than 11 BB).
Others of note still in 6th Dan Smith (5.4m) (not the singer with Bastille) who won a $2million prize in a super high roller at the Bellagio a fortnight ago, has 2 other 7 figure scores on his resumé plus a WPT and an EPT 10th Leif Force (4.7m) - 2012 bracelet winner 14th Martin Jacobsen (3.9m) - the Swede has been in the Top 30 seemingly from the start 24th William Pappaconstantinou (3.4m) - WSOP Chip listings are just showing him as "William"! 28th Isaac Baron (3m) - online player of the year in 2007 29th Brian Hastings (2.9m), best known for his controversial sessions with "Isildur1" 51st Daniel Wilson (1.6m) last Irishman standing 60th Garrett Greer (1.1m) - an accident left him with a broken neck and a quadriplegic 64th Vitaliy Lunkin (1m) - made Day 5 last year, gone one better so far this time around 70th David Yingling (0.7m) Sounds like an Olympic yachting class, but is having the time of his live - his previous total live cashes add up to $18K, he equalled that two days ago with a min cash and is still battling on.
Places 73-82 will all play $85K and change, with all the last 72 players guaranteed a 6-figure payday.
Further eliminations 74 Gabriel Paul 73 Anh Van Nguyen 72 Benjamin Gold 71 Kyle Bowker
70 players left, all will now recieve 6-figure paydays. Only Stuart update so far was at the break, when he was down to a smidgin under a million chips, looks like all he has lost was the blinds and antes
Kyle Keranen continues to build a stack, now over 10 million, with Scott Palmer at just over 8.

Great work Richard, thank you.
What a run by Stu, after being near felted several times early doors.
Your reports have been a delight, especially the "name plays".
Think today's favourite is.....

87 left, $72K guaranteed so far.
Confirmed only 2 women left - Maria Ho and Mikiyo Aoki.

10th Leif Force (4.7m) - 2012 bracelet winner
14th Martin Jacobsen (3.9m) - the Swede has been in the Top 30 seemingly from the start

29th Brian Hastings (2.9m), best known for his controversial sessions with "Isildur1"
51st Daniel Wilson (1.6m) last Irishman standing

64th Vitaliy Lunkin (1m) - made Day 5 last year, gone one better so far this time around
70th David Yingling (0.7m) Sounds like an Olympic yachting class, but is having the time of his live - his previous total live cashes add up to $18K, he equalled that two days ago with a min cash and is still battling on.

So, two of the Top 5 stacks, both to his right. Don't see him getting many unopened spots.
EXCELLENT THREAD MR FCHD, MUST TAKE A LOT OF YOUR TIME.

All the best
