Wolfe Takes One from Negreanu

From the button, Daniel Negreanu made it 9,500 to go. Zachary Wolfe made the call from the small blind.

Flop: {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The two players checked. The {q-Clubs} came on the turn and Wolfe made it 8,600 and Negreanu called.

River: {k-Clubs}

Wolfe checked once more and Negreanu followed suit.

Wolfe showed {q-Spades}{6-Spades} to take down the pot.

"Oh I had my flush draw hand," Negreanu said tossing in {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.

Over for Robl

Andrew Robl was just eliminated by Jimmy Ostensson on Table 375.

We missed the specifics, but when we reached the table {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} was laying in front of Ostensson and the board read {4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}. Robl's hand was already in the muck and he was waiting for a Rio staff member to escort him to the pay out area.

Fuggedaboutit

Brock "T Soprano" Parker, our reigning champion of this event, is on the rail to support a friend. He is at Table 369 and we don't know exactly who he's pulling for.

We do know the table is stacked with online players including David "Raptor" Benefield, David "dpeters17" Peters, Darryll "DFish" Fish and Jeffrey "jpapola" Papola.

Rocketing Up

From the cutoff, Daniel Negreanu made it 9,500. Taylor Caby then bumped it up to 26,500 from the button. Negreanu raised it 35,000 more and Caby moved all in. Negreanu snap-called with his tournament life on the line. He showed {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} to be well ahead of Caby's {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.

The rail all leaned in closer to take a look and some players at the surrounding tables jumped out of their seats and made their way to Table 374 Red to see what the fuss was about.

The board rolled out {7-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Negreanu's stack bloomed to 370,000 while Caby's wilted down to 48,000.

Fish is up to 200,000 chips.

Lusk Dusted

There were four players in a hand including Brian "Lusky" Lusk and Jeffrey "jpapola" Papola when the dealer flopped {J-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

The action checked to Lusk who bet 25,000 and Papola min-raised to 50,000. The other two players folded and Lusk moved all in for 75,000. Papola made the call.

Showdown
Lusk: {A-Diamonds}{J-}
Papola: {A-Spades}{q-Spades}

The {6-Diamonds} on the turn was a brick, but the {4-Spades} on the river gave Papola a winning flush. The dealer was confused for a moment and thought Lusk was the winner.

"I have a flush," Papola blurted. "I get all the chips."

Indeed you do Mr. Papola, you are now our chip leader with 520,000 of them.
