There was a situation on Table 19 moments ago that caught or attention.
A short-stacked player was all in with on a queen-high board and was at risk against a player with aces. Someone at the table pointed out that the dealer forgot to burn a card however, and the floor was called over.
The floor ruled that the dealer must wash the cards back into the deck and generate a new flop. The dealer did so, wrapped the table and delivered a new flop; .
What's even funnier is that the turn was a giving the player a full house. The river bricked with an , and the shorty doubled to 1,300.
Over at Chad Batista's table a player in middle position had raised preflop to 600. The player to his immediate left raised to 1,800 from the hijack. When action folded to Batista in the small blind he went all in for about 24,000, having both players covered. The original raiser called, but the hijack folded.
Batista:
Opponent:
Batista's opponent seemed happy with his call, saying "I'm happy to get it in with kings against an ace anytime." His happiness wouldn't last for long.
The flop came , pairing Batista's queen, but giving his opponent a set. When the came on the river, Batista was still alive and drawing to a couple of outs. He found one when the came on the river.
Immediately after the hand Batista said, "Thats the worst beat I ever put on anyone." He's now up to about 40,000 chips.
When we got to her table Maria Mayrinck had all 3,000 of her chips in the middle and an opponent to her right had just made the call, putting her tournament life in jeopardy.
Mayrinck:
Opponent:
The board ran out and Mayrinck was good for a double up to 6,000
Edit: Moments after we reported this hand, Mayrinck flopped top set over an opponent's middle set and is now at 15,000.
A player opened in early position and another player shoved from middle position for 2,075. Michael Glasser re-shoved having both players covered and the original raiser folded.
Showdown
Glasser:
Middle Position:
The board ran and Glasser's tens held eliminating his opponent and increasing his stack to 16,000 chips.
Tom "durrrr" Dwan opened to 700 and was called by one player at his table in the Pavilion Room.
The flop came jack-high and Dwan checked to his opponent who jammed for over 9,000 chips. Dwan folded and it is very apparent that his opponents do not want to play him in a pot.
The number 23 is sacred in basketball because it was worn by arguably the greatest player ever; Michael Jordan.
It is appropriate then that arguably our toughest table right now is Table 23.
Chad Batista was the first to sit there, and is one of our chipleaders, but now he is tablemates with Tom "durrrr" Dwan and Isaac Haxton.
The three have combined for almost $5,000,000 in live tournament earnings and we don't even want to begin to guess at how much the three have won online.
