A Chop but a Good Start for Kampanatsanyakorn

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Defending champion Chane Kampanatsanyakorn has started out quite well on the first day, as his stack's already up to 34,000 right now. Just the Thai pro was involved in another pot that went as following, as we picked up the action on the flop.

The flop showed {Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{A-Clubs} when Kampanatsanyakorn bet 900 and the player on the button made the call. On the turn the {10-Hearts} hit and this time Kampanatsanyakorn check-called 1,800. The river brought out the {J-Spades} and both players opted to check.

Kampanatsanyakorn showed {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and his opponent tabled {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, and both players received half the pot.

Alner Get’s Caught

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

The action folded around to Tom Alner in the cut off who raised it up to 625. His opponent on the button bumped it up to 1,500 as the blinds got out of the way. With the decision back on Alner he raised once more to 3,500 and was called.

The flop came down {3-Spades}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} and Alner check called a bet of 2,000 before both players opted to check as the {2-Hearts} fell on the turn.

The {4-Clubs} on the river prompted Alner to splash out 5,200 in chips and was called shortly after. Alter then smiled to himself and mumbled a few things before mucking his hand as he relinquished the pot to his opponent.

Alner drops down to 20,500 in chips following the hand.

Downward Spiral See’s Wilinofsky Eliminated

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante
Kitty Kuo eliminates Ben Wilinofsky
Kitty Kuo eliminates Ben Wilinofsky

The action started with Yuguang Li raising to 600 and getting called by the player in the cut off as well as Ben Wilinofsky on the button and Chin Kampanatsanyakorn in the big blind.

The flop came down {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades} and the action checked around to WIlinofsky who bet out 1,250. It only interested the player in the cut off as the two other players got out of the way.

Both players then checked the {4-Clubs} on the turn before the {q-Clubs} completed the board. The player in the cut off then quickly led out for 4,000. WIlinofsky sat up from his chair and studied his opponent’s stack before bumping it up to 13,000 in chips. A minute passed before the bet was called only to see Wilinofsky muck his hand when his opponent tabled his {a-Spades}{j-Spades} for two pair.

In the very next hand, Kitty Kuo raised to 700 from under the gun and was called by Wilinofsky in the cut off.

The flop came down {2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and both players checked. The {10-Spades} on the turn saw Kuo check once again prompting Wilinofsky to bet out 1,100 of his remaining 4,600 in chips. Kuo made the call and both players watched as the {3-Clubs} dropped on the river. Kuo checked for the third time but snap called when Wilinofsky committed the last of his chips on the river.

Kuo then tabled her {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for quad tens much to the surprise of Wilinofsky, who could just smile as he stood up from the chair and made his way out of the room.
