Brown Doubles Opponent

Level 5 : 75/250, 50 ante

Four players saw fourth street; two of which were Chad Brown and Daniel Negreanu.

The latter would fold as Brown went heads-up against one opponent with all his money going in on fifth street with both player's boards placed as following.

Brown: {X-}{X-} / {K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {X-}{X-} / {J-Spades}{7-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Brown tabled his {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} to be trailing his opponent's {J-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Brown caught the {A-Spades}, while his opponent snagged the {9-Clubs}. Brown failed to improve when the {6-Spades} fell on seventh as his opponent claimed the {Q-Hearts}. With that pot, Brown slips to 3,600 in chips.

Monnette Takes a Hit

Level 5 : 75/250, 50 ante

Catching the action on fourth street we found John Monnette committing chips against an opponent. On all the subsequent streets, Monnette took a back seat as his opponent fired out bets and he smooth-called.

Monnette: {X-}{X-} / {7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} / {X-}
Opponent: {X-}{X-} / {4-Spades}{A-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Spades} / {X-}

Monnette called the final bet on seventh, but would be forced to fold when his opponent tabled his {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} / {Q-Hearts} for a set.

Plenty of Extras Being Given Away at This Year's WSOP

Level 5 : 75/250, 50 ante

The buzz inside the walls of the Rio extends beyond just the tournaments on the 2013 World Series of Poker schedule. Online poker in Nevada is a very, very hot topic right now, and WSOP.com is making a lot of noise.

While the site has yet to launch, you can head to the Lambada Room of the Rio or look for one of the beautiful and friendly WSOP.com ladies walking the hallways to sign up for a free, personal WSOP.com online poker account. This is a great way to get a jump on the site's registration, and plenty of people have already taken this opportunity.

What's more is that the WSOP will be hosting daily raffles for everyone that has taken the time to register for WSOP.com at the Rio. What can you win? Plenty of fantastic prizes including 36 WSOP seats!

Players 21 years of age and older who sign up for a WSOP.com account will automatically be entered into the “36-Seat Giveaway” where a randomly-selected winner will win a seat into the next day’s first WSOP gold bracelet event. One of the events eligible in this promotion is the $111,111 One Drop High Roller No-Limit Hold’em tournament that is expected to feature a $10,000,000 prize pool and allow you to play poker with the biggest names in the game. In total, $182,333 in WSOP seats, including a seat to the WSOP Main Event, are being given away during this one-of-a-kind WSOP.com promotion.

In addition to the 36-Seat Giveaway, a “Hot Seat” promotion will allow any player who signs up for a WSOP.com online account and wears their WSOP.com patch on their chest at the table while playing an event to be randomly selected to receive 500 bonus dollars deposited directly into their WSOP.com online account once the site has received all regulatory approvals and launches.

With 62 WSOP gold bracelet events and three winners promised for the Main Event, this promotion includes $32,000 worth of value to those participating.

Prize Pool and Payouts Announced

Level 5 : 75/250, 50 ante

The prize pool and payouts have been announced for Event #23: $2,500 Seven-Card Stud here at the 2013 World Series of Poker. With 246 entrants coming out, a prize pool of $559,650 was generated. Of that, $145,520 will go to the winner and the top 32 spots will earn a minimum of $3,889.

Reunion on 387

Level 5 : 75/250, 50 ante

With a table breaking, an interesting dilemma has developed on table 387.

John Monnette and his 6,000-chip stack was moved to join the likes of Perry Friedman and Huu Vinh. This may not sound interesting but in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud at last year's World Series, Monnette, Vinh and Friedman went 1st, 2nd and 4th.

Could we see a repeat performance?
