Suchanek no More

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

According to Tatjana Zizic, Jan Suchanek lost all the big hands he played early on and word on the street is that the final hand of the Kiwi saw it get in with pocket aces and Amanda De Cesare hit a flush on the river. Suchanek will likely be back in poker action later on, albeit at the higher stakes limit cash game tables in the Crown poker room.

Straight for Taylor

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

With plenty of chips already in the middle, the {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop saw Michael Ryan and Clinton Taylor invest 4,000 each in a battle cutoff versus button. On the {5-Clubs} turn, Ryan check-called a bet of 5,400 and the {6-Spades} river was checked. Ryan flashed red aces and Taylor won the pot with {A-Spades}{2-Spades} for a straight.

Do Hoang also chipped up on the same table soon after when his jacks held up versus {A-Spades}{5-Spades} for a busted straight draw. They are joined by Shivan Abdine and Jonathan Karamalikis.

Doria and Sitbon Chop With a Full

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

On the river of a board {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, [Removed:415] on the button had bet 3,600 and Julien Sitbon in middle position check-raised to 10,600. Doria glanced at his opponent, sighed and said "do you have aces?" without getting any reply.

The call of Doria followed and Sitbon tabled {A-Spades}{10-Spades}, Doria had {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for the equally strong full house. While Doria is up early in chips, Sitbon is down by as many chips.

Karita Chips Up

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

There has been some early action over on table 27 with Jan Suchanek involved, and the biggest pot so far went to Shoshiro Karita. It was without a showdown, as he bet the {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} river for 2,000 into a pot of 4,050. His sole remaining opponent folded and Karita claimed the pot.

Then it was up to Suchanek, who bet the {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} turn for 300 and Nauvneel Kashyap check-called. On the {4-Hearts} river, Kashyap made it 650 to go and Suchanek folded.

Rettenmaier Loses a Small One

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Marvin Rettenmaier has been spotted in the upper tournament area and was immediately involved in three-way action. On the {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, action checked to Rettenmaier on the button and he made it 425 to go. Only the big blind called and the {8-Spades} turn went check, check. On the {Q-Diamonds} river, the big blind made it 1,100 to go and Rettenmaier reluctantly folded.
