Assorted Pre Dinner Counts

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Nguyen Sends Ulmer to the Rail

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

With the flop showing {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}, Chi Thinh Nguyen moved all in and Timothy Ulmer eventually called it off for his last 7,650.

Timothy Ulmer: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Chi Thinh Nguyen: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

The {6-Diamonds} turn gave Ulmer a straight but he still needed to dodge hearts on the river, which unfortunately wasn't the case with the {8-Hearts} as final card.

Young Over Karlic After Some Thought

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Gerald Karlic opened on the button and Max Young made it 2,200 in the big blind. Karlic peeled to see {2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop. Young bet 1,300 and Karlic called. Both checked the {q-Spades} and the {9-Clubs} completed the board. Young bet big with 6,000 and Karlic went into the tank. After a couple of minutes, he opted to call, but Young had flopped top set with {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}.

Kuo Gets Caught

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

With the board reading {7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, Kitty Kuo bet 1,100 and her opponent called. On the {3-Diamonds} river, Kuo opted for a bet of 2,300 and her opponent called without much hesitation.

Sheepishly, Kuo was forced to show {A-Hearts}{5-Spades} for a mere ace-high hand. Her opponent rolled over {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} for a flush and scooped up the pot.

Hope Busts One

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a raise by Daniel Hope and a call by Lawrence Ma on the button, the big blind moved all in for 6,925 in total. Hope asked for a count and called, as did Ma. On the {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, Hope continued for 3,500 and was called before a second barrel worth 3,500 on the {5-Hearts} turn was for 4,500.

Again Ma tossed in calling chips to see the {Q-Spades} on the river. Hope bet 11,500 and Ma eventually folded, Hope turned over {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a straight and dragged in the pot while the all in player briefly showed his cards before they ended up in the muck.

"I thought you had a set and was hoiping the board doesn't pair," Hope said and Ma replied "I had pocket jacks."

Pham Busts One with Drama Included

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Four tables in the satellite / secondary cash game section are also in use and among those to be seated there are Martin Jacobson, Gianluca Speranza, Marc Macdonnell, Jan-Eric Schwippert and Toby Joyce. On the table of the Irishman, some drama took place after a player insisted he had announced call to a reraise, which the dealer and other players said had not been the case and two chips worth 5,500 were tossed out already.

It was ruled as a forced reraise to 5,400 and Tien Pham then moved all in to see the other player call it off for around 17,500 in chips with the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Pham had the dominating {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and the board came {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. Pham was involved in the next two hands, losing the first and taking down the other, and appears to be one of the biggest stacks in the section.

Greenwood Wastes No Time Getting There

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

We found Sam Greenwood with 3,500 in front of him in the big bind and thinking of whether to call a shove for about 15,500 from an early-position player. Greenwood dropped in a chip to call and turned over {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}. He was behind {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} but that changed quickly as {3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flopped, giving him the nut flush. The {4-Hearts} turn ended what little chance Greenwood's foe had.

Glaser Commands Respect

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

No-Limit Hold'em may not be the game British mixed game specialist Benny Glaser is known for, the three-time bracelet still commands respect at the table. It showed in a blind battle with Glaser and a short-stacked opponent.

On an {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}{5-Spades} flop, the big blind had 2,500 in front of him with 6,700 behind. Glaser moved all in and the big blind tanked for over two minutes before calling off with {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Glaser frowned and tabled {K-Spades}{J-Spades} for the nut flush draw, which bricked on the {2-Clubs} turn and {Q-Diamonds} river.
