Abraham Plows Field; Leads Again
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
John Abraham continues to plow his way through the field here thanks to a few key set ups and some cagey moves.
A moment ago he made it 4,000 before the flop from early position, getting just one call from the big blind with 12,700 behind.
The flop fell 
and after a check from the big blind, Abraham confirmed his stack size and checked as well. The turn was the 
and when the big blind led for 5,000, Abraham set him all in. The big blind called happily with the 
, but his turned set was no good.
Abraham had flopped one with the 
and now has the chip lead closing in on the 200,000-chip mark.

On The Chopping Block
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
A healthy Rick Block bet 5,000 chips into a three-way pot of about 12,000 facing a check and a player behind on a 
flop. The player on the button bumped it to 15,000 and after the third player folded, Block called.
He checked the 
turn, then tank-called a 20,000-chip bet from the button. Both players checked the river and when the button turned over 
, Block showed disappointment and the 
for a chopped pot.

Swing Low
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Jeffery Hobrecker was the first player past the 100,000-chip post, but spent the past few levels running through all those chips.
The swings continue, however, as he just bet 5,000 into a 10,000-chip pot with the board reading 
. His heads-up opponent pushed in for some 12,000 more and Hobrecker made the call with the 
.
He was miles ahead of his opponent's 
and held after the 
turn and 
river, putting him above 100,000 again and his opponent on the outside looking in.

The 100,000 Chip Club
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Brett "Roscoe" Short has joined the 100,000-chip club now after he goaded one opponent into calling off all her stack.
With about 22,000 in the middle head up on a 
flop, Short shoved, effectively putting his opponent all in for her last 36,000.
She tank-called with 
after trying several verbal tactics to get a read only to find out she had two outs against Short's 
. The 
turn made the river a moot point.
