Rodman Busts

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

After a limp, Blair Rodman committed his final 3,700 from the small blind with both the big blind and limper making the call.

The two active players checked down the {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{A-Clubs} board to see Rodman table his {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for aces-up and a 8-7 low.

However his opponent's would table {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} (for a better low) and {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{5-Clubs} (for a better high) to send Rodman to the rail.

"And the beats continued!" added Rodman as he left the table.

Tedeschi Doulbes Kendall

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

We caught up with Tony Kendall and Paul Tedeschi involved in an all in pot. Kendall was holding {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades} against Tedeschi's {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}.

The board read {7-Spades}{Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{q-Hearts} giving Kendall a winning flush with his hand and that was good enough to earn him the pot. Tedeschi was forced to cut out chips and double up Kendall.

Tedeschi is still off to a good start today and has increased his starting stack for the day by just around 30,000 chips.

Woodward Sliding Down

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Matt Woodward began the day as chip leader, but right now he is stuck in the middle of the pack after recently losing another hand to be scooped.

With the board reading {2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades} we found Woodward's opponent betting 5,500 with bets of 2,000 and 3,200 placed in front of each player - most likely placed on previous streets.

Woodward went into the tank for several minutes before making the call only to muck at the sight of his opponent's {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for a low and trips.

Cernuto Fades Everything

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

Catching the action on the {2-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{7-Spades} board we found "Miami" John Cernuto calling Russell Kauffman's all in.

Cernuto: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Kauffman: {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{X-}

Kauffman had the world with his pair, low draw and nut flush draw, but when the brick of the {Q-Hearts} landed on the river, he was out the door as Cernuto moved to 90,000 in chips.

Quads For Hachem

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

We caught up with Joe Hachem on a board of {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs} with just about 15,000 in the pot. On that board he had a bet of roughly 7,000 placed in front of him and was waiting on his opponent to make a decision.

After thinking about it for a while, the player threw in a call and Hachem turned over the {10-Clubs}, for quads, then {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for the rest of his hand. The other player mucked and Hachem was able to pick up a decently sized pot here on Day 2.

"When did you like your hand Joe?" One of the dealers asked Hachem after the hand.

"On the turn," he said. "When he called."
