There is a short break while the floor staff sets up the final table in the Pavillion Room. We will be right back.
The players are being announced and play will start shortly.
The cards are in the air. We will continue playing in the current level.
The first two hands go to Ryan Schmidt and Brent Hanks who both take the blinds and antes with uncontested raises.
-
Andrew Badecker raised to 43,000 and Abdyl Konjuhi three-bet to 193,000, one seat to his left, and Badecker mucked his hand.
-
Richard Parks raised to 40,000 in the hijack seat and took the blinds and the antes.
Michael Kaufman just raised to 40,000 from the hi-jack and Vanessa Selbst, who was in the cut-off, opted to three bet to 82,000 right away. Nobody wanted to play with Selbst who took down this pot without seeing a flop.
Jacob Bazeley raised to 40,000 in first position and Vanessa Selbst made the call from mid-position. JP Kelly was seated in the cutoff and he moved all-in. The button folded and Abdyl Konjuhi also moved all in from the small blind. Both Bazeley and Selbst folded and we had our first showdown at the final table.
