. . . . moments worth recalling
Karam Crushed: Action folded around to Dan Dizenzo on the button and he raised to 16,000 with 
, which prompted Marc Karam to move all in for 169,000 from the big blind with 
. Dizenzo made a quick call and was primed to score the knock out.
“My first time all in this tournament,” Karam said. That was followed by an “Ouch,” when the flop fell 
. The 
turn left Karam drawing dead, while the 
river sent him home in 378th place for $32,871.
God Save the Moorman: At an outer table, there was 1,021,000 in the pot on a flop of 
. Chris Moorman held the 
but was up and preparing to exit as Patrick Halter held the far superior 
. Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Moorman, and the Brit gave us a wave as he made his way to the payout desk in 358th place to collect $32,871.
The Legendary Johnny Chan: In another hand at the outer tables, two-time Main Event winner Johnny Chan was all in preflop holding 
and in bad shape against the of Isaac Baron. With 1,085,000 on the line, the dealer burned and put out the flop — 
, a disaster for Chan as Baron flopped top set. The 
turn gave Chan a little hope for a chop, but the 
river was not what he needed. Chan took a swig of his water, grabbed
his humongous red bag, and then exited the Amazon Room in 353rd place.
A New Chip Leader: Paul Volpe, a 30-year old
from Philadelphia with $113,633 in WSOP cashes, began Day 4 10th in
chips, and things only seemed to go his way as the day progressed. For
example, with 254,000 in the pot and a flop of 
, Volpe checked 
to Sean Rice, who held 
on the button. The latter checked, the 
turned, and Volpe fired out 150,000 with his flush. Rice made the call drawing dead, and the
river was danger as it gave him useless trips. Volpe wasted little time
moving all in, and after thinking for a few moments, Rice called off
his last 481,000. With that hand, Volpe became the new chip leader with
3.184 million and was primed to improve upon his 192nd-place finish in
the 2011 WSOP Main Event.
Deeb Dusted; Buchman Looking for Another November Nine: A short-stacked Shaun Deeb was all in preflop for 114,000 holding 
and out in front of the 
of Eric Buchman, who you may recall as a member of the November Nine in 2009. Deeb sat silently while receiving a massage and didn’t react much when the flop fell 
followed by the on the turn; however, when the
spiked on the river to give Buchman the win, Deeb shot out of his chair
and exited in 319th place for $32,871. Meanwhile, Buchman was looking
to become the first repeat November Niner — or in this case an October
Niner.
