Eberle Running Over His Table
Despite being the oldest player at the table by at least 20 years, Dale Eberle has been by far the most active player. Eberle just took four of six hands to boost his chip lead even further. Every time, he raised preflop, and was either called or three bet making it a heads up hand. Eberle came along each time, and by the end of the hand, he had the chips each time. Eberle is now up nearly 800,000, and is the early chip leader.

His bet was deemed a call, and due to the discounted price, Dale Eberle, Ari Engel, and Dom Denotaristefani all called. Stephen Bass raised on the button, and it folded back to Jacqmin, who made a proper raise this time. Eberle and Engel got out of the way, and Denotaristefani and Bass called. The flop came out
