Seat 9: /
Nikolay Evdakov: /
James Mackey (X)(X) /
A player in Seat 8 had made the bring with Seat 9, Nikolay Evdakov and James Mackey calling. On fourth street Seat 9 bet with Evdakov and Mackey calling, but the player who brought in folded.
Fifth street brought the most action on the hand with Evdakov betting, Mackey folding and Seat 9 raising. Evdakov called the raise and we were headed to a heads-up sixth street.
Evdakov called one last bet on sixth street before both players checked the river. The player in Seat 9 showed an eight-low while Evdakov showed a jack-low, apparently having caught pairs on both sixth and seventh street.
Catching up with the action on sixth street, Haxton check-called a bet from Rodman. After both players received their seventh-street cards, Haxton checked. Rodman checked behind and then showed the . Haxton mucked and Rodman picked up the pot to move back to 5,500 in chips. Haxton dropped to 6,575.
With the final board reading , Scott Clements fired a bet of 925 into a pot of between 1,500 and 2,000. After a bit of time in the tank, his opponent made the call. Clements tabled the and his opponent mucked.
Sorel Mizzi has found himself down to just 2,800 chips. His most recent setback occurred when he raised an opponent's completion in a Razz hand and called a bet on fourth street only to wind up with two high cards on fifth street. By the time his opponent bet fifth street, Mizzi's hands were already half-way to the muck.
Valdemar Kwaysser: (X)(X) / - fold
Jason Mercier: (X)(X) / {8c] / (X)
Jason Lester: (X)(X) / / (X)
Kwaysser checked fourth street to Mercier, who bet out. Lester raised and then Kwaysser folded. Mercier made the call. On each street to follow, Mercier led the betting with Lester calling.
Mercier showed the from his holecards for queens full of eights. Lester held the and made a 8-7-5-4-3 low and the two chopped up the pot.
Both Lester and Mercier have a little over 11,000 in chips.
We arrived on fourth street just in time to see Marco Traniello check-call a bet from his opponent. Traniello also check-called on fifth street. He chose to lead out with a bet on sixth street, though, and took down the pot when his opponent folded.
Stud 8/b
Traniello: /
Opponent: (X)(X) / / (X)
Not too long afterwards, Traniello was involved in another pot where he bet on third and fourth streets with his opponent making the call both times.
Traniello's opponent caught the best visible hand on fifth street and made a bet with Traniello raising, and then calling a re-raise.
Action was once again plentiful on sixth street with Traniello's opponent catching two visible pairs and betting. Traniello raised, and his opponent called. The river didn't induce any action with both players checking.
When betting was done, Traniello tabled a better two-pair. With no lows, he scopped the pot when his opponent mucked.
So, there was just an announcement made about the restart for this event tomorrow. The tournament staff announced that because of the WSOP Tournament of Champions event that kicks off tomorrow, this event won't restart until 4:10 p.m. instead of 3:00 p.m. Also, only nine levels will be played tomorrow instead of ten. This means that Day 3 will more than likely be super, super long when they have to play down to a winner. Most of the events this year have come back for their third and final day with many more players than a final table. Only playing nine levels on Day 2 now will result in even more players returning for Day 3 when the schedule is slated to play all the way down to a winner.
