Day: 1c
Nali "Iraqi Nick" Kaselias Eliminates a Player
The turn and river were no help for Kaselias' opponent, who was eliminated.
Juanda Stuck in the Gate
On the flop, Juanda bet 2,800. His opponent thought things through for about 15 seconds and then pushed all in. Juanda was the one who would be at risk of elimination if he called. Instead he folded and lived to see another hand. He's on 6,100 chips now.
The Ladies Love Nenad
Nenad loves chips. He's got 32,000 after taking down a nice pot with a turned nut flush against a flopped set on a board of . The total pot was 8,000 chips headed to the river, where Medic bet 6,550 and got the call out of his opponent. Medic's was the boss hand, besting his opponent's .
Vartan Gets Sold Down the River
As long as a diamond didn't hit the board Vartan would be safe. The was a fine turn card, but the river card was a nasty eliminating the Hollywood actor from the 2009 Aussie Millions Poker Championship Main Event.
"Down Under" Producer at It Again
If that's true, it's no wonder that Huntly has ordered himself a table massage while working his way through the Day 1c field. His chair is turned around to give the massage therapist full access to his upper back and shoulders. It also gives the rest of the field a full view of several inches of Huntly's rear end.
"Dennis! Surely that's a five-minute penalty for exposing yourself!" shouted Dan Shak from one table over. Clonie Gowen, seated at the same table as Shak and directly in line of the protruding tuchus, could hardly contain her laughter even as she desperately looked for some other point in the room on which to focus. Van Marcus also got in on the action, running around behind Huntly and sticking a Coke bottle down his pants.
Given Huntly's past, we figure a Coke bottle is probably the least offensive thing that's been that close to his ass.
Where's Dwan?
Obviously tournaments are not Dwan's thing, but he is believed to be looking forward to the AU$1,000,000 buy-in cash game, to be played on Sunday here at Crown.
Tran Clips Tasmaniac
JC Tran was his opponent in position who put in the raise to 5,500. Mamacas deliberated before making the call.
The river was the and Mamacas checked to Tran who quickly checked behind. "Queen high," said Mamacas as Tran revealed for top pair.
Mamacas is down to 12,000 with Tran now sitting with over 45,000 chips.
Gowen's Set Goes Down in Flames
On a board of , Gowen was last to act and put in the second raise to 15,000 after the small blind opened for 1,000 and was raised by a second player to 5,000. The small blind called all in with and found himself up against Gowen's . Gowen was in great shape to eliminate the small blind, but the board went runner-runner clubs and to give him the nut flush.
Gowen is still in the tournament but she's down to 7,000 chips.
