See Tom (Se)Go

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

With the board reading {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades}{4-Clubs} by the turn, Tom Sego elected to make his stand with an all-in shove for 17,500, moving in over the top of a bet.

Sego's opponent quickly called with the {A-Spades}{q-Hearts}, but he found himself drawing exactly dead against Sego's {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for a set of fours. After the {8-Clubs} dropped on the river to make things official, Sego secured the double up to survive as Day 1b marches towards its conclusion.

You Call, It's Gonna Be All Over Baby!

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Scotty Nguyen Has Been Busted From the 2013 Main Event
Scotty Nguyen Has Been Busted From the 2013 Main Event

The champion of the 1998 edition of this event, Scotty Nguyen, will not be making history this year with by winning a second Main Event title, as he has just been eliminated from the field in particularly painful fashion.

The action began when Nguyen opened for 1,200 from under the gun, and Tyler Denson three-bet to 3,500. After Nguyen flatted, the flop fell {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{q-Spades}, and the former champ checked the action.

Denson fired out a bet of 3,500, and Nguyen decided to make his stand, reraising for the rest of his stack. Denson snap-called and revealed the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} with a flourish, while Nguyen was left to table his {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} slowly and in silence, knowing that the end was near.

The turn ({5-Diamonds}) and river ({j-Diamonds}) failed to deliver the case ten to Nguyen, and he quickly walked away from the tournament floor in a daze, a cooler canning him from the most important tournament of the year.

Jungleman Swings into the Chip Lead

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Daniel Cates
Daniel Cates

Online superstar Daniel "Jungleman" Cates has been among the big stacks all day, and so has Danny Illingworth. The two were seated at the same table, and while they stayed out of each other's way for four levels, they just collided in what is by far the biggest pot of the day.

It began when opened for 1,000 and Illington three-bet to 3,100. Action folded back to Cates and he pushed back with a four-bet to 7,000, which Illingworth called. When the flop fell {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, Cates checked and Illingworth bet 8,100. Cates made the call and then checked after the dealer burned and turned the {5-Spades}.

Illingworth took the opportunity to bet again, this time 12,000, and then Cates woke up with a check-raise to 30,000. Illingworth thought for a few moments before making the call and the {K-Spades} was put out on the river. Cates, who barely had his opponent covered, proceeded to move all in and Illingworth quickly called off for roughly 45,000.

Cates tabled the {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for trips fives with an ace kicker, and disheartened Illingworth rolled over the {5-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for trips fives but with an inferior kicker. The table was stunned at the sudden turn of events, and as Cates stacked a hefty pile of chips, Illingworth made a beeline for the door.

Lodden Found Short; Doubles

Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden

The action folded around to the player on the button, who opened to 800. The small blind got out of the way, before Johnny Lodden opted to move all in for his last 6,350 from the big blind. He was called, and both players tabled their cards.

Lodden: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{q-Spades}{k-Spades}, to see Lodden win with a straight, and double up.

The Big Stack

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

We've spotted potentially the biggest stack in the Brasilia Room, but after sticking around to hopefully catch a hand, we've concluded that he is happy for now with the stack that he has.
