Mohsin On Down

Mohsin Charania: {3-}(XX) / {a-}{6-}{9-}{5-}
Opponent gentleman: {3-}{4-}{7-} / {6-}{2-}{k-}{q-}

Mohsin Charania has taken a hit - insofar as any pot can constitute a serious hit at this stage - after betting on every street with a made nine-low by sixth. His opponent flat-called all the way down, and revealed a rivered seven-low to take the pot.

Charania dipped to 6,200.

Durrrr is Here

Tom "durrrr" Dwan has showed up a little late. He took his seat at the same table as Andy Bloch. Bloch must not have known Dwan was a Razz aficionado as the topic of conversation was centered on his appearance in the tournament.

"I'm really good on fourth and fifth streets catching deuces and threes," Dwan explained, "while my opponent catches kings and queens."

Chiu-ing the Fat

David Chiu: {a-}{6-}{8-} / {2-}{k-}{5-}{3-}
Opponent gent: (mucked) / {6-}{3-}{6-}{7-}

Chiu's opponent called the bring in and then called Chiu's completion as well to see a fourth street, on which he bet out. Chiu made the call.

Chiu then led the betting from fifth street on, betting out on every street and getting flat-called all the way, until his opponent mucked when Chiu turned over a 6-5-2-3-A low.

Chiu, who'd taken a small early hit, recovered to 7,700.

Late Arrivals

There have been a couple of late arrivals including Liv Boeree, Scott Seiver and Robert Williamson III.

Williamson recently sat down at the same table as Annie Duke and Tom McEvoy. In one hand, Duke completed the bet showing the {3-Diamonds}. Williamson, who was showing the {7-Clubs}, was the only one to call.

"Is that the seven of clubs, sir?" asked Duke.

"Yes it is," Williamson responded, "What's with all the formalities . . . sir?"

"It's just that you're very far away," Duke joked as she put in a bet after hitting the {6-Clubs}. Williamson smiled as he mucked his hand.
