Trevallion Rolling

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

A preflop raising war resulted in an unknown player getting his stack of 12,000 in the middle and in dire straits against Alex Trevallion, who if you recall won the AU$25,000 Challenge last week and is at the currently-on-hiatus AU$100,000 Challenge final table.

Trevallion: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Trevallion had the goods, but the dealer made him work for it with the {9-Spades}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop, which gave the at-risk player an open-ended straight draw. Fortunately for Trevallion, the board ran out the {2-Spades} and {6-Hearts} to give him the knockout.

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

The man who is the chip leader of the $100,000 Challenge that will recommence on Saturday four-bet to 4,150. From there, everyone folded, and Schemion won the pot.

Rast Busts a Shorty; Polk's Day is Done

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante
Doug Polk
Doug Polk

Brian Rast has been quietly building his stack here on Day 1c. Most recently he sent a shorty home by winning a race. Rast held the {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and was up against an opponent, who was in for roughly 7,000, holding the {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. The {5-Spades}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop contained a jack, but it was alright for Rast as it also had a third five. Neither the {7-Diamonds} turn nor {K-Clubs} river changed a thing, and Rast climbed over 50K.

Meanwhile, we saw World Series of Poker bracelet winner and online pro Doug "WCGRider" Polk wandering the tournament floor.

"How goes it?" we inquired.

"Lost. I removed my my chips," Polk offered. "I removed all of them."

Schiffbauer Can't Bluff Kho

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Rob Schiffbauer is coming off a 72nd-place finish in the 2015 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event for $20,580. He's looking to make it back-to-back main event cashes in this one, but his work will certainly be cut out for him after a failed bluff attempt saw him drop down to 8,000 in chips.

On the final board of {A-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{J-Spades} and about 9,000 in the middle, Kitson Kho checked to Schiffbauer. Schiffbauer bet 5,100, and Kho went into the tank. After some deep thought, Kho made the call, and Schiffbauer turned over the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} for two pair. Kho showed the {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} for a flush, and he won the pot.

"Nice call," complimented Schiffbauer to Kho after the hand.

Seidel Sliding

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

With approximately 8,000 in the pot and a board reading {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, Poker Hall of Famer Erik Seidel bet 5,800 from the big blind into his opponent in the hijack. A call was made, and then the dealer burned one last time before putting out the {6-Diamonds} river, which double-paired the board.

Seidel opted to check, and his opponent did the same. Seidel showed the {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for two pair with an ace kicker, but it was no good as the hijack held a bigger two pair with the {j-Spades}{a-Spades}.
