Clements Statys Alive

Scott Clements was just all in for just a couple of chips when he showed {2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. His opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and the board was {6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. We assume the last chips went in on the flop and Clements managed to make a flush to survive.

Clements is still short but staying alive in this tournament so far.

Bari Eliminated

Alex Dovzhenko and Allen Bari raised back and forth on the {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop to get all of Bari's 5,300 into the middle. Bari held the {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Dovzhenko the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. The turn was the {Q-Clubs} and river the {5-Diamonds}.

"F***ing great, he gets three quarters," said Bari, but he was mistaken as Dovzhenko actually scooped the entire pot with the nut low and a six-high straight. "Oh, it's a scoop, f***ing awesome," finished Bari as he grabbed his bag and headed to the exit.

Dovzhenko moved to 18,000 in chips.

Boonie and Mizrachi Chop

We caught the action on a {A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop when Michael Kleist, better known as Boonie, check-called a 600 bet. His opponent was Michael Mizrachi and he face a 1,200 from Kleist when the turn brought out the {10-Diamonds}. Mizrachi raised to 2,400 and Kleist followed with the call.

The river was the {7-Clubs} and both players checked. Mizrachi announced he had aces with a live deuce and showed {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{2-Hearts} while Kleist tabled {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. The pot got chopped and the players moved on like nothing happened.

We are playing a split pot game today and will see a lot of situation like this.

Collopy Struggling

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Jim Collopy feeling the aftermath of a rough night last night

Times are tough for Jim Collopy, who's not been having his best day so far. Last night we saw him try to order as many beers as possible before the end of the day and it looks like he's hurting a bit today.

Collopy came into the Amazon Room about 30 minutes late and has been staring at the floor ever since. The reason why is that he's been hunched over at the table with his forehead resting on the rail. The only time we saw him move was to get up and walk over to one of the big trash cans opposite his table. Collopy made sure to pull one of the trash cans close by so he has easy access when he needs it. He's yet to stack his chips or play many hands, but we'll see how he can progress through Day 2.

We hope Collopy feels better soon, as the tournament plans to go on till right around 2:30 AM. It's already going to be a long day, but could be even longer for Collopy.

Racener Done

John Racener already has three World Series of Poker cashes to his name this year, his biggest coming in the $1,500 Omaha hi/lo event where he finished sixth for $41,121. He will not add another in this event as we just saw him get up and leave his seat.

Racener had shown {A-}{4-}{7-}{Q-} and his chips got chopped against Jimmy Fricke, who was holding {K-}{10-}{9-}{7-}, and Lee Goldman who had {A-}{A-}{3-}{Q-}. The board showed {7-}{8-}{5-}{10-}{2-} and Racener was done.
