Lean Mean Raising Machine
Every time I meander on over to Bruno Fitoussi's table, the Frenchman has chips in the middle and betting like there's no tomorrow. And would you Adam and Eve it, just moments ago I trundled across to find Bruno at it again, check-raising Andreas Frenger's 2k bet to 6k to take the pot on a
flop.It seems to be working for him though as he's now become one of several to surpass the 30k mark with 30,900.
The Rise and Fall of Nikolaus Jedlicka
, and after much consideration, the young Betfair qualifier called, only to see Jedlicka's 
, that had rivered a set. That hand sent Jedlicka's stack up past the 40,000 mark. Only a few moments later, we heard the dealer call out "all in action!" and rushed over to find that Jedlicka's stack had again found its way to the middle, calling an opponent's 6,000 or so chip all-in in a pot that had swelled to nearly 20,000. The board read
. "I think I have two outs here," said Jedlicka as he turned over
. He was right-- his opponent tabled 
. The river was the
, and half of Jedlicka's stack was shipped across the table. He's currently sitting on 17,000.
Sarah Taylor Back on Top
Sarah Taylor is up to 69,000 and jumped back into the chip lead on Day 1a. French actor/singer/poker player Patrick Bruel slipped to 26,000, while Barry Greenstein is around 32,000. Thor Hansen won a couple of pots and increased his stack to 26,000.
Table of Doooooom... Maybe?
I can't speak for the Fifty or Sportsman casinos, but here at the brand spanking new Empire Casino, the table of... drum roll please... certain death has to be Table 1:
Andy Bloch = 14,225
Chris Ferguson = 16,725
Jennifer Harman = 37,300
Paul Jackson = 17,625
Oh, and by the way, I still haven't found a chance to utilise my 'Jenny from the Bloch' pun. Bah, humbug! Those players are just downright selfish!
McShortstack
Bouncing Back
She might not hover over the table like Phil Gordon, but online whiz Annette Obrestad sure looks menacing, her grit focus and determination evident in every move she makes.
After taking a couple of early knocks, the femme fatale has bounced back up to 15,925, her last pot being a 700 to 2.3k re-raise of the equally engaged Steven Van Zadelhoff to take the pot down uncontested.
Terriers vs. Wolfhound
Dean Sanders -- 52,600
Dan Peterson -- 6,200
Todd Brunson -- 11,100
Freddy Deeb -- 7,900
Their tablemate Terry Cook just dropped Freddy Deeb down to his present stack, after his set of Aces was paid off on the river. He was muttering about being glad he'd checked the flop, and immediately terminated the services of his massage lady.
Two World Champs Side by Side
1999 World Champ Noel Furlong, and 2004 Champ Greg Raymer are seated next to each other at table 16. Both are trying to become the first one to win the WSOP Main Event Championship on two continents.
