2010-11 World Series of Poker Circuit - Harrah's New Orleans
Billie Payne opened to 110,000 in early position, and Jake Bazeley three-bet all in for 450,000 total. Payne could not call, and he folded to leave himself with just about 600,000. Bazely moves just ahead of that now, bumping his stack up to 615,000 and out of the bottom spot.
We've lost another player, and this time it's Billie Payne heading to the rail.
It was the 50th hand of the day when Payne open-shoved for 510,000 from the hijack seat with . He almost made it. The table passed around to the big blind where Jonathan Poche squeezed out and made the easy call with Payne's tournament life in the balance.
There was no help at all on the flop, and the turn and river failed to save Payne's tournament life. He's out in 7th place, pocketing more than $18,000 for three days' work.
Under the gun, Todd Wood opened to 85,000, and Jake Bazeley three-bet shoved for 660,000 from the big blind. Wood didn't waste any time calling with the , and Bazeley's had him in bad shape to stick around.
The flop was not particularly good for "Bazeman", and the turn left him dead to a chop. He needed to pull one of the tens in the deck to make Broadway, but the river was most certainly not one of them.
That marks the end of Bazeley's day in 6th place, good for a payday of $23,416. With that knockout, Wood moves back into second place with 1.94 million now.
Opening the pot under the gun, Josh Evans made it 95,000 to go, and Jonathan Poche reraised to 205,000 in position. Evans answer was a shove all in over the top, and Poche laid his hand in the muck.
Evans moves ahead of Poche with that pot, sitting with 1.32 million to his opponent's 1.21 million.
Scott Zakheim raised to 90,000, and Jonathan Poche three-bet all in with the covering stack. Zakheim called all in for about 700,000 total, and he was flipping for double or nothing.
Showdown
Zakheim:
Poche:
Zakheim could not connect with the board as the dealer ran out . Unable to improve, his day has come to an end in 5th place, good for more than $30,000.
