The 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event is dwindling down and some big names still remain.

Among those who are all-in with just 282 players left:  Daniel Negreanu, Vanessa Selbst, Jason Somerville, Sorel Mizzi, Eric Cloutier, Freddy Deeb, John Juanda, Dan Shak and Matt Marifioti.

The later you might recall for his Twitter meltdown last week targeting ex girlfriend Lauren Kling whereby he called her every not-so-nice name in the book.  We won’t repeat what he said here being that Gambling911.com is a family site and all.

Everyone is going home with at least $38,453.
