Just in front of the blogging desk we have Neil Channing (23,000), Kelly Kim (69,000), Marco Johnson (140,000), Clark Hamagami (46,000) and Christian de Leon (32,000) all seated together.
With this table unlikely to break until well after dinner break, it should provide for plenty of fireworks!
With the action folding round to Mehdi Alaei in the small blind, he found himself in a raising war with Jonathan Evans (in the big blind) and eventually find himself all in.
Alaei:
Evans:
The board ran out to see Alaei double through to 160,000 as Evans was left crippled with only 10,000 in chips.
Facing a raise in late position, Joe Simmons made the call before Howard Boyd put in a hefty reraise. Both players made the call, and by the turn Boyd had all his chips in the pot.
Boyd, holding a pair of fours, was drawing to just two outs after Simmons had flopped a set of deuces.
No help came on the turn and Boyd exited to the rail as Simmons continued his rampage as he soars to 396,000 in chips.
