    Bear-ing The Chip Lead...

    Wrap Up

    Play is now over for the day and Barry Greenstein looks to be the chip leader with about 177,200 going into Day 2.

    68 players remain from the 527 that started today, massive carnage for an event. However, 14 players will still come back tomorrow and not get paid with money bubble popping at 54. We'll be playing down to the final table of nine tomorrow night.

    Until 2pm tomorrow then, we'll see you there!

    Shorn Deeb

    Shaun Deeb is down to just a few thousand after a nasty limit spot. Deeb bet the {Q-Spades} {7-Hearts} {10-Clubs} flop before getting check-raised on the {3-Hearts} turn. His opponent bet the {4-Clubs} river too and Deeb called another bet there before mucking when he was shown {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs}.

    The limit is certainly causing some vicious swings tonight.

    Rabstov Almost Trebles...

    UTG raises to 2,400 and Kirill Rabtsov makes it 7,000 in late position. Gavin Griffin reraises to 20,000 and the other two move all in with Griffin making the call for about 7,000 more on top of his 4-bet.

    UTG: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
    Rabstov: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
    Griffin: {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}

    The board comes out {Q-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} and Rabstov is up to 85,000. Griffin has 65,000 and the UTG player is eliminated.

    Super Barry Goes Ballistic, Exits Are Explosive

    Barry Greenstein is wielding the poker equivalent of a massive scythe in a major reaping operation that is just cutting through his table...

    In just over a few hands he's knocked out two players in quick succession.

    First calling the push of the big blind's {K-Clubs} {5-Clubs} with {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}, the board coming {K-Hearts} {A-Spades} {8-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {J-Spades}.

    Scratch one.

    Next his {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} holds against {Q-Clubs} {J-Hearts} on a {A-Spades} {4-Spades} {2-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {K-Hearts} board to bust another.

    Scratch two.

    Greenstein is up to 140,000

    Erick Lind-Gone

    Erick Lindgren pushed the last of his 4,600 stack in with {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} and got looked up by the button's {10-Diamonds} {10-Spades} which won out on a {3-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} board.
