Justin Smith is calling it quits after losing $200k during today's session. Phil Ivey is taking his place.
Wang Qiang and Paul Phua just entered the studio. Tom Dwan did his best to get them to join the game, and they may return later.
Mike Matusow bet $5,000 at a 
flop. Justin Smith raised him, sending Matusow into deep thought. He eventually decided to move all in. And Smith called quickly, asking if they could run it twice.
Matusow: 
for an overpair
Smith: 
for a flush draw with a gutshot
The floor brought over a card that said "Run it 2 Times" and it was time to go. The first board finished 
, sending the first half of the pot to Mike. "I feel pretty good right now," he said. The dealer laid out the 
and 
below the first turn and river. "I feel really good right now," Matusow said. He's up to $275,000 now while Smith is out $200,000.
Somehow the conversation turned to a cash game where someone got completely naked to win $500. Tom Dwan said $500 was barely worth the effort it would take to remove his clothes.
"At some cash games, there are guys who would pay $500 to take off their clothes. Depends on what part of town you're in," joked David Benyamine.
Then Dwan started telling a story about streaking with Cole South. Dwan said South only got paid $1,000 while he earned $6,000. We want to know how much they paid the poor folks who had to witness that.
There is now chips worth more than a million dollars on the table. Usually when we write about these amounts, we're talking tournament chips. But this is cold, plastic cash. Each of the eight players bought in for $100,000. Now Erik Cajelais, Justin Smith, and Tom Dwan have each reloaded once. So this is currently the $1.1 Million Cash Game.
The next hand after folding to Erik Cajelais' big preflop raise, Justin Smith got himself into another bad spot. He got his whole stack in on a 
flop with 
. Patrik Antonius showed 
for the flopped nut straight. The board filled out with a 
and 
. Antonius reached to his left to slide Boosted J's whole stack into his while Smith got up to get more chips.
Erik Cajelais hasn't been involved much since he got stacked in the first orbit. He opened from early position here, and David Oppenheim called. Patrik Antonius three-bet. Then Justin Smith either called or four-bet (we couldn't see the denomination of chips in front of him). So Cajelais responded by making it $60,000 to see a flop. Oppenheim and Antonius snap-folded, and Smith only took a minute longer to reach the same decision.
Cajelais took his chips back without a word. He's rivaling PA for bald stoicism today.
You don't need a HUD to spot the pattern here. Every time action folds to Tom Dwan in the cutoff, he's going to raise. And every time durrrr raises the cutoff, Andrew Feldman is going to three-bet his button. But sometimes they actually have hands. This time Feldman three-bet to $7,400, and Dwan surprised him by moving all in.
Feldman agonized, saying he just couldn't fold his hand. Eventually he paid the extra $38,800. "All these eights, they're killing me."
Dwan: 
Feldman:
The dealer laid the 
flop and the turn. He was burning before the river when David Oppenheim said, "Feel a little better now, Tom?" "There's still a --." Dwan didn't get to finish his sentence before the 
materialized on the river. Ouch.
"How dare you speak before it was done," David Benyamine chided Oppenheim.
With that $80k pot, Feldman is up on the day at the moment and durrrr rebought for another $100k.
At long last, a menu. David Benyamine recommends the ravioli at the Italian restaurant downstairs in the Crown Casino.
Patrik Antonius raised to $2,500. But shock. Andrew Feldman three-bet his button, making it $7,600 total. Antonius called, then checked the 
flop. Feldman kept up his end with a $9,300 bet. Antonius called again. The 
turn put two red flush draws out there. Both players checked to the river, which filled diamonds with the 
. It went check-check again, and Patrik Antonius took it down with 
.
For those of you worried about poor, starving Patrik Antonius, you can rest easy. He opted to fuel himself with a protein drink in a juice box. Guess he Doesn'tHateJuice.
