How's My Image?

Shamus

Torrey Reily had dropped to 294,000 -- less than ten big blinds -- when he just now pushed all in from the cutoff. That was the first time in 40 hands he'd voluntarily entered a pot.

Angel Guillen looked him over for a while from the button before folding. Shawn Glines folded quickly from the small blind. And Keven Stammen smiled for a moment, then gave up his big blind.

Reily Wins a Couple

Shamus

Bahador Ahmadi open-raised on the button to 72,000, and Torrey Reily reraised all in from the small blind for 312,000 total. Angel Guillen folded, then Ahmadi thought a bit before making the call.

Ahmadi wasn't pleased when he saw Reily's hand -- {A-Hearts}

. That's because Guillen had {A-Diamonds}

.

The board came {9-Diamonds}

, and Reily doubled up.

On the next hand, Reily came over the top of a Keven Stammen raise and took another pot. Reily is now up to 775,000.

Stammen Takes Huge Pot from Ahmadi

Shamus

Bahado Ahmadi raised to 77,000 from under the gun, and it folded to Keven Stammen who made the call from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}

. Stammen checked, Ahmadi bet 110,000, and Stammen called.

The turn was the {A-Hearts}

, and Stammen again checked. This time Ahmadi bet 175,000, and Stammen promptly check-raised to 600,000. Ahmadi called.

The river was the {4-Hearts}

. Stammen fired out 600,000, and Ahmadi called.

Stammen showed {9-Diamonds}

for the flopped two pair, and Ahmadi mucked. Stammen is the overwhelming chip leader now with 3.7 million, while Ahmadi tumbles to 670,000.

Glines Gets Guillen

Shamus

This was the last hand before the break, a battle-of-the-blinds hand in which Shawn Glines and Angel Guillen fought for what turned out to be a decent-sized pot.

It folded to Guillen who limped in from the small blind, and Glines checked behind. The flop came {Q-Spades}

. Guillen bet 40,000, and Glines called. The turn was the {A-Clubs}

. This time Guillen bet 105,000, and Glines again called.

The river was the {4-Clubs}

. Guillen bet 200,000, and once again, Glines made the call.

Glines showed {K-Spades}

for queens and sevens, and Guillen mucked, showing a four as he did.
