Messing A-Round

Mike Caro has just doubled up, and the match continues.

The staff has just told the players that the Round 4 restart will take off on schedule in the Amazon Room (meaning that it should be starting as we speak). The winner of this last match will join the action over there as soon as they finish up.

The blog is going to cover Round 4 now, but we'll update you on the result of this match as soon as it becomes final.

Caro vs. Popov: Not Done Yet

Alexey Popov moved all in for 84,400 before the flop with {Q-Clubs} {10-Spades}. The Mad Genius made the call with {K-Hearts} {J-Spades}.

The dealer spread out the board: {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} {6-Spades} {2-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}. Popov's queens are the winner, and he has now taken back the chip lead.

Still Going Strong

The tournament staff is scrambling just a bit, as they didn't expect to still have one match running at this point. There will be a new chip set in play when this round concludes, and there is the whole matter of moving over to the Amazon Room to deal with. The Round of 32 is scheduled to get underway at 6:00pm, just 17 minutes from now. There's no word just yet, but we may be delayed by a few minutes.

This round had a shot to be all over just now though. Mike Caro was all in for his final 78,800 before the flop. He showed down {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}, and Alexey Popov looked him up with {A-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. A dry board meant a double up for Mike Caro, and play continues. Caro has the lead with 157,600 to Popov's 82,400. There isn't much play left with the astronomical blinds, and this should wrap up in just a few hands.
