Frame Knocks Player Out, Breaks Table
![[user196975]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
We found this developing on the flop of 
and Sean Frame bet 2,200 from the big blind. His opponent behind him moved all in for about 7,000 more. Frame called and the hands were turned up.
Frame: 
Opponent: 
The turn card locked the hand up for Frame with 
. An irrelevant and ugly deuce came on the river and Frame's opponent gathered his things and left with a quickness. With the elimination the table became short handed and was broke.

Mr. Tanker Has Clock Called. Again.
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
The player we've referred to earlier, Mr. Tanker, for having the clock repeatedly called him has struck again. This time action was on the river and the board read 
. His opponent checked to him with a decent sized pot already in the middle. After another agonizingly long thought process, another player at the table called the clock.
While waiting for a floorman to arrive and start the countdown Mr. Tanker finally checked behind and tabled 
. The floorman arrived and Mr. Tanker told him everything was all good.
Kroon-ing About New Chips
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
It was a limped pot that let several players take a 
flop, but we didn't pick up the action until the turn 
. It was three-handed by then, and Drew Caseri checked. Mark "P0ker H0" Kroon fired out into the pot with 1,100, and the third gentleman raised to 8,500 total. That folded Caseri, but Kroon shoved all in for 15,400. There was no snap-call, but Mr. Opponent eventually did put Kroon to the test.
Showdown
Kroon: 
Opponent: 
Kroon already had his opponent drawing dead, and the river was too little, too late for the other gentleman. That's a big double for the H0, moving him up to about 36,000.

No Sengphet This Time
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
Earlier in the day, we saw Circuit regular and friend of PokerNews La Sengphet meandering around the casino. She wasn't looking very well, frankly, and she told us she wasn't sure she would be able to play the Main Event today.
It seems the bug has gotten the best of La this time around. She's not made it down for Day 1b yet, and word on the street is she's going to sit this one out. And that's a real bummer.
So get well soon, La!
"What'd You Think I Have?"
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
We found Jason Sy and Robert Castoire in a hand at the river. The board showed 
and Castoire bet 2,000. Sy raised to 5,500 and Castoire took a few moments to think.
Castoire called and asked Sy if he had an eight. Sy tabled 
and said, "Yeah. What'd you think I have?"
Castoire nodded and turned over 
and they chopped the pot.

And That's a Break
Level 9

We're one third of the way through the evening session, and the players are off for a 15-minute break.
Clocking Up a Storm
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
There is a player at Table 36 that is acting quite, quite slowly on every decision. We tend to be a little impatient as tournament reporters, so we use the other players as our barometer. And the other players are not happy. Mr. Tanker has been clocked at least three different times, and frustration is being passed around the table like the blinds and button.
Floorman Dennis has just reduced the player's clock to 30 seconds, and he had a few snide words for his table mates as he was informed of the reduction.
