Jacobson Hits the Century Mark

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Martin Jacobson
Martin Jacobson

Martin Jacobson, winner of the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas for $10,000,000, fired a bet of 2,600 on the {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} board into two opponents after action checked around on the flop. His first opponent called, and the second one folded.

The river was the {4-Clubs} to put two pair on the board, and Jacobson checked. His opponent bet 6,000, and Jacobson called.

After seeing his opponent turn over the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, Jacobson tabled the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} to win the pot.

A Round of Chip Counts

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Seidel Loses a Bit

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

With 10,150 in the middle we just witnessed Seidel check from the small blind. His neighbor, chip leader Patrick Zellweger, bet 3,800. Seidel quickly called but mucked upon seeing Zellweger's {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}. A small loss for Seidel who's still on a way above average chip stack.

Fedor Holz Eliminated

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Fedor Holz's seat was empty and his stack nowhere to be found. Former table mate Tom Hall told us what had happened.

Holz had gotten short and found {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} with just 9 big blinds left. He shoved those in but got called by a player in middle position holding {A-Spades}{K-Spades}. Holz got a flush draw but it remained a draw, it never materialized.

Exit for the German high roller who'll take place at the $100,000 Challenge final table later this week.

Rubie Fails to Make the Dinner Break

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Brendon Rubie
Brendon Rubie

Minutes before the dinner break, Brendon Rubie, who is just two days removed from winning the 2016 Aussie Millions Event #10: $1,650 No-Limit Hold'em Bounty for AU$116,680, was eliminated from the Main Event.

We didn't see the hand as it happened, but Rubie informed us he busted after flopping trip jacks holding {k-}{j-}. Unfortunately for him, an opponent held {a-}{j-} and his short run came to an end in Level 4.

Kaverman Doubles Through Sylvia

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Jesse Sylvia just raised before the flop and got one caller, on the button, before Byron Kaverman moved all in from the big blind for 6,950. Sylvia tanked for quite some time before calling, and the player on the button folded.

Sylvia: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Kaverman: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Kaverman was granted another chance in this event.

Mason Rivers Two Pair

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

As we walked up to Chance Kornuth's new table (he had been moved and had brought 67,000 in chips with him), we saw a big pot brewing. The board read {3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Ashley Mason (small blind) and his opponent (big blind) sat there in silence for a moment.

Ashley "DYBYDX" Mason, SCOOP 2011 High Roller champion for $430,000, bet out 5,500. His neighbor instantly called, but couldn't beat Mason's {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} for the rivered two pair. The big blind open mucked his {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs} with a disgusted look on his face, and had to leave the pot to Mason.

Abernathy on the Up and Up

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a player in early position raised to 800 action folded to Samantha Abernathy in the big blind. She defended and then both players checked the {6-Spades} turn as well as the {J-Hearts} river. That's when Abernathy bet 1,100, which did the trick as her opponent folded.

That was a small pot, but just one of many Abernathy has collected as of late. As you can see, she's nearly doubled her stack in the last 30 minutes.
