Boatman Busts Thurber

Level 25
Barny Boatman
Barny Boatman

Big O

Barny Boatman in early position bet 30,000 and was met with a pot-sized bet of 108,000 from Laurette Thurber in middle position. Boatman made the call.

Boatman checked the flop of {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Thurber bet pot before instantly receiving a pot bet back from Boatman, Thurber called to go all in for 325,000.

Laurette Thurber: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Barny Boatman: {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

Boatman was ahead with trip nines but Thurber had an up and down straight draw. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave Thurber additional flush outs but the {10-Hearts} river was a brick and Boatman scooped the pot and increased his dominant lead.

Slaght Gets Three-Quarters of Huge Pot; Joins Chip Leaders

Level 24

Big O

A commotion was noticed at table 145 as a massive cooler has sent William Slaght toward the chip lead, while leaving Igor Zektser short.

On a {3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop, pot-sized bets were exchanged and an over one million chip pot was in progress, with Slaght all in and in rough shape.

William Slaght: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Igor Zektser: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Slaght had flopped trip fours, but Zektser had flopped threes full of fours.

The turn {5-Hearts} gave Slaght half the pot with his ace-seven low, but then he got the best possible card to counterfeit that low in the {7-Clubs} on the river to give him a better full house than Zektser, with each player sharing the low.

Lenekit Sends Ortiz to the Rail

Level 24

Big O

Christian Ortiz moved all in for 75,000 from under the gun and was called by Paul Lenekit on the button.

Christian Ortiz: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Paul Lenekit: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Ortiz needed help, but the board of {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds} danced around his sixes and didn't improve. Lenekit took the whole pot with the high, and ace-three was good for the low.

Zable Doubles His Short Stack

Level 24

Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better

Stanley Krimerman raised to 12,000 in the hijack and was called by Esther Taylor in the cutoff. John Zable then potted it from the small blind from his roughly 120,000 chip stack.

Krimerman then re-potted and Taylor folded. Zable called to put himself at risk.

John Zable: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Stanley Krimerman: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}

The board came {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and Zable's aces held to double up through "Stan Diego".

WSOP Main Event Railbird Pays Back Daniel Negreanu Three-Year "Debt"

Level 23
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu has had a disappointing 2022 World Series of Poker, and that didn't change on Day 1c of the Main Event, but he did receive a good luck charm from one player on the rail, so there's that.

A wholesome moment took place Tuesday evening inside Bally's when Arash Shahi, a fellow Canadian from Toronto, approached the GGPoker ambassador who was seated at his table during the $10,000 buy-in world championship event.
