Tom "durrrr" Dwan and Jason Mercier have headed over to the Amazon Room to play Day 2 of Event #19: $10,000 2-7 Draw Lowball Championship.
Mercier went by choice though, Dwan is busto from Event #20.
According to Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis, Dwan potted every hand after he was moved to Veldhuis' table and that led to his demise. Luckily for Veldhuis, a lot of those chips gravitated to his stack putting him at 20,000.
Other recent bustouts include Keven "stammdogg" Stammen, Jon "PearlJammer" Turner and Noah Boeken.
James Akenhead reached a flop of where he led out for 650. His neighbour called. Once both players had checked the turn, Akenhead check-folded to a bet of 700 on the river, before showing what I believe was pocket aces. His opponent returned the favour by revealing pocket kings in the hole for the flopped set.
Akenhead still has his head well above water, however, with 9,500.
With the fast-paced nature of low-stacked Omaha tournaments, we're beginning to see a few potential chip leaders emerge, one of which is Charles Alexandre Sylvestre who has just over 37,000.
A dominant and foreboding figure on his table with his four or five towering columns, Sylvestre just eliminated two more opponents, both of whom were all in on a flop with and .
However, Sylvestre is running hotter than a freshly made apple pie at the moment, and duly evaded any bad beats with on a turn and river, despite both opponents thinking they'd rivered the winning hand with a flush.
I joined the action on the flop, Richard Ashby leading out for 750 on a board. Another player raised, only for Yuval Bronstein (who boasted the biggest stack of the three) to immediately slide his stack all in from one seat down. Ashby made the call with , as did the sandwiched player with . Bronstein tabled .
The turn changed little, but the river didn't, a giving Ashby a last-ditch straight, and leaving Bronstein to collect second prize: the side pot.
On a flop of , Nenad Medic bet 1,500 into a pot of 2,075 and received a call from seat one. The turn came the and Medic, as deliberate as ever, counting out his stack numerous times before firing again, this time to the tune of 5,000 and leaving himself just 4,000 behind. His opponent appeared tempted at first, but ultimately made the fold. Medic now on 14,500.
