Ace-Deuce, Ace-Deuce, Ace-Deuce (Part II)

[user75032]

It happened again. This time the table in question was that of Marsha Waggoner. Waggoner led the betting the whole way on a board of {Q-Diamonds}

. At showdown she produced {A-Diamonds}

. Waggoner had flopped the nut flush and backed into the nut low. Each of her opponents also had ace-deuce for the nut low. They each received one-sixth of the pot while Waggoner got two-thirds.

Rouhani Still Here

[user46392]

Farzad Rouhani is making a bit of a comeback -- he made an ace-high flush to scoop a pot, and is back up to a still half-the-average 15,000.

Racing Ahead

[user46392]

John Racener has doubled up somewhere along the the way -- he's up to 20,000 and out of the immediate danger zone.

Shuffle, Shuffle, Box, Shuffle

[user75032]

What is it about this tournament that has players so angry? After the two earlier incidents where players tried to claim half the pot without tabling their cards, we now have a player accusing a dealer of purposefully cold-decking him. It's to the point where the player is angrily mucking his cards every time. We thought at first that the comments by the player might have been tongue-in-cheek, but now we're not so sure.

That rain shower earlier in the afternoon did nothing to cool off the tempers of today's players.

Mel Judah Eliminated

[user75032]

There's one less Aussie in the field. Mel Judah called all in against Frankie O'Dell on a board of {7-Clubs}

. O'Dell was in the lead with {A-Spades}

, two pair aces and fives; Judah was drawing at high and low hands with {A-Clubs}

. He missed everything when the river bricked out {J-?}

Interesting Pre-Dinner Hand

[user46392]

Five players including John Monnette on the cutoff, Vanessa Selbst on the button and Michael Keiner in the big blind limp/checked their way to a {9-Clubs}

flop.

The gent in the small blind bet out, and everyone flat-called.

Come the {6-Spades}

turn the small blind bet out again and this time Monnette laid it down but everyone else called.

The river came down the {J-Hearts}

and this time it checked around to Selbst, who bet. Everyone called, including a gent in mid-position who called all in for his last 300, and they proceeded to showdown.

Mr Mid Position: mucked and made his exit
Keiner: {A-Diamonds}
