Cards are back in the air. We had a special "Shuffle up and deal" to re-commence the action from PokerStars Team Australia Pro Tony Hachem, who got engaged last night. Lynn caught up with him during the break:
Tommy Le Straightens Out Ramil Tandoc
.But he didn't like it near as much, when all the money went in on the
flop and Tommy Le rolled over 
.The board blanked out
turn and 
river to ship Tandoc's stack to Le.Le moves up to 35,000 and Tandoc hits the rail.
Tan Can't Buy the Pot
. By the time we came to the table he had 3,050 chips out as a bet, but we're not sure if he bet that amount or raised that amount after his opponent bet. Regardless, his opponent seemed agonized by his decision on such a straighting and flushing board. Finally, he called.Tan was clearly not happy to see the call. "King-high," he said, showing a red king. His opponent turned over
for top set and dragged the pot."I guess that was a good river for me," he joked afterwards.
"Not really," Tan replied. "I was going to bet the river anyway!"
Tan has slipped to 15,000 in chips.
"Like the Underwear"
Hanes is an incongrous guy, as he's dressed in a Montreal Expos baseball jersey and a University of Texas cap but claims to hail from Alabama. Hanes took shot at playing one of the hyper-turbo super-satellites on PokerStars that funneled into a qualifier tournament for this event. He said he managed to double up early in the qualifier and then coasted from there.
Hanes arrived earlier in the week and played in the Cebu Cup, finishing as the bubble boy. He's hoping to cash in the Main Event so that he can claim that he is the first player from Alabama to cash in the Philippines.
Hanes is off to a good start, having already managed to double his stack.
