Hawkins Makes a Prediction

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Maurice Hawkins has been his usual chatty self over on Pavilion #121.

He recently predicted when he was going to bust a player sitting to his right.

"1,000-2,000 blind level is when you are going to leave," Hawkins said. "You think I'm joking but I'm telling the truth."

Hawkins has the rest of his table laughing over his boasting. He currently sits just below the starting stack.

Raymer Gone

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Greg Raymer
Greg Raymer

The action was recapped at Greg Raymer's table about what had happened.

Raymer had opened under the gun to 800 only for Hong Li to three-bet to 2,500 which Raymer matched to see a flop.

The flop came out {q-}{j-}{8-Diamonds} and Raymer check-called a bet of 4,500.

The turn came a {7-} and Hong Li pushed all in which Raymer called for his tournament life.

Greg Raymer: {a-}{j-}
Hong Li: {a-}{a-}

Raymer could not find the jack on the river, he signed a fossil for Li, and left the tournament area.

Quads Over Quads

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

One of the dealers at the Rio came over to the PokerNews booth to share a wild hand. She said that the "table bully" shoved all-in on the river for 17,300 with {5-}{5-} on a board of {5-}{5-}{9-}{9-}{x-} for quads but ran into higher quads as their opponent held {9-}{9-}.

Lauson Hits Case Ten to Score a Bounty

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Travis Lauson shoved all in pre-flop and his opponent, with about 15,000 behind, made the call. Lauson had him covered.

Lauson tabled {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and was up against {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Lauson didn't need it, but the flop still gave him the last ten in the deck for a set.

He's up to around 50,000 and collected his opponent's $300 bounty.

Stoll Earns a Double

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player in early position raised to 1,000 and Ryan Stoll moved all-in for 8,300. The original raiser called with {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and the all-in player showed {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {3-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Stoll earned a full double up and moved close to his original starting stack.

Kalisek Knocks One Out Amid Controversy

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Joseph Kalisek jammed on the river with the board showing {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts}.

His opponent in the seat to his direct right tanked for several minutes before making the call with a shorter stack. Kalisek turned over {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} for a full house and his opponent went to muck.

The rest of the table was adamant that the all-in player needed to show his cards, but he refused. The floor had to be called over, and eventually his hand of {8-Spades}{3-Clubs} was shown.
