Break It Out
![[user140525]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Break time, and not a moment too soon for Chino. Back in 20.
Getting Loopy
Chino Rheem may have snapped. He's started announcing his bets in song form. Jean-Robert Bellande just came over to the table, and Rheem got up to shadow box against Bobby's chest. We'll cut him some slack. It's been a long day of 2-7.
Pair For Snyder
Yan Chen opened to 6,000 and Sean Snyder made the call from the button.
Both players drew two and Chen checked to Snyder to see him fire out 9,500.
After nearly two minutes of deliberating, Chen made the call.
"Pair of eights" stated Snyder as Chen quickly spread his 
for a king-ten low to rake in the pot and move to 85,000 in chips.
Bui Takes One from Micon
Bryan Micon raised his small blind to 5,700, and Todd Bui called in the big blind. Both took a card, and Micon checked. Bui slowly slid out a 10,000-chip stack. Micon didn't like the looks of it, but he talked himself into a call. "Nine smooth," Bui said. Micon grunted "Ten," and mucked.
Railbird Spotting
The action has fallen off here, and many of the railers have gone in search of more interesting spectacles. But the always sleepy Ashton Griffin just appeared on the sidelines to yawn and watch. This isn't likely to wake him up.
Snyder Still Building
Things were looking pretty gloomy for Sean Snyder after he called Nick Binger's all in drawing dead. He was down to 32,000 when he pulled out a triple up through Scott Seiver and Chino Rheem. That wasn't enough for Snyder, however. A few hands later, he fought for more chips in a big hand with Chino and Yan Chen.
Chen raised to 6,000, and Snyder and Chino both called and drew one. Chen took two. Rheem checked first, and Chen followed suit. Snyder bet 13,900, and Rheem looked him up. Chen folded, and Snyder flipped over a very tidy 
. Rheem dropped his jaw and mucked, boosting Snyder to 98,000. Rheem has fallen to a still quite impressive 162,000.
Snyder x Three
Chino Rheem raised to 6,200 from the hijack, and Scott Seiver called. Then in the small blind, Sean Snyder moved all in. "I call whatever that is," Chino said, waving off the dealer who was starting to count it. "Yes, but I need to know what it is," Seiver said. It was 24,600, and Chino and Seiver both called. Rheem stood pat while Snyder and Seiver both drew one. Chino and Scott checked after the draw. "An ace," said Seiver in disgust. Snyder turned over 
, and Chino shook his head. His jack couldn't beat it, and neither could the 
Seiver said he had. Ship a triple up in Snyder's direction. He went from the short stack to 80,000 in one convenient hand.
Nicewander Draws To Stay Alive
Todd Bui opened to 6,000 from the button and Daniel Nicewander moved all in for his last 11,800.
Bui instantly called standing pat with his while Nicewander drew one to his .
Fortunately for Nicewander he caught the to keep him alive in the tournament with over 24,000 as Bui slipped to 40,000 in chips.
Big Double Up for Binger
Sean Snyder raised to 5,000 from the cutoff, and Nick Binger kicked it up to 17,500 in the small blind. Snyder promptly moved all in, and Binger called all in for the rest of his 67,800.
Binger stood pat with an . That was pretty awful news for Snyder, who was drawing one to a . No card in the deck could keep him from doubling Binger. He flipped over the meaningless and went back to counting out Binger's nice new stack. Nick had a healthy 139,000 after the double up, while Snyder was left with 32,000.
