Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

The bicentennial mark was nearly reached in Wednesday's Event #3: $360 NLH With $100 Bounties, as 196 entries generated a total prize pool of $40,180. When all was said and done, Patrick Michael and Andrew Dykeman agreed to a heads-up chop with Michael taking the top prize of $9,003 and Dykeman earning $7,886.

A trio of Jacksonville residents in Louis De Pasquale, Andrew Simmonds, and Trammell Evans took the next three places, with Lee Pohle, Shane Scorza, and Russell Dugger also making it to the final table. All eight earned at least a four-figure payday for their efforts.

In total, 25 places were paid for the event, with Michael Smith Jr. being the first to make it past the bubble to earn $301 before payouts jumped to $372 and increased every three places until the final table of nine was reached.

Ajayi Nears Three Starting Stacks

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Dapo Ajayi
Dapo Ajayi

A player in middle position raised to 2,500 over an early-position limp. Dapo Ajayi called in the cutoff and action folded back to the original limper, who also called.

The flop dropped {5-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Spades} and the early-position player checked. The hijack made a continuation-bet of 2,500 and received only a call from Ajayi.

Action was then heads up to the turn {8-Diamonds} and the hijack checked. Ajayi made a bet of 6,500 and the hijack called, bringing the river {2-Spades} where both players checked through to showdown.

The hijack showed {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a pair of kings and Ajayi topped it with {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, earning the pot with his pair of aces.

Van Sanford Sent To Re-Enter

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Ryan Van Sanford
Ryan Van Sanford

Thad McNulty was in the small blind and was in the process of calling a preflop-open from Ryan Van Sanford, who was across the table in middle position. With action heads up, the flop came {q-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and McNulty checked. Sanford made a continuation-bet of 1,600 and McNulty called.

The turn came {j-Clubs} and McNulty checked again. Van Sanford announced he was all in, putting forward his remaining 9,000. McNulty immediately announced a call and flipped over the nuts.

Ryan Van Sanford: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Thad McNulty: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Van Sanford had shoved after turning two pair but the same turn gave McNulty Broadway. Van Sanford needed an ace or a jack to double and he failed to find either on the river {k-Clubs}, resulting in his remaining chips being sent over to McNulty.

Van Sanford wasted no time heading to re-enter, and is next in line to rejoin the tournament with a fresh stack of 25,000.

A Preflop Raising War

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Gary Herstein
Gary Herstein

Gary Herstein was under the gun and opened to 2,500. Action folded around to Hal Rotholz, who was on the button and three-bet to 7,000. Both blinds folded, sending action back to Herstein and he wasted no time sliding his stack of around 49,000 forward.

Faced with a decision for more or less his entire stack, Rotholz thought for a few moments, studying Herstein before giving up his cards to bring about the won pot for Herstein.

Hart Dubs Through Walters

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was three handed in a single-raised pot between the small blind, David Walters in the big blind, and Reed Hart in early position. On the flop {3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, the small blind checked and Walters bet 8,000. Hart called and the small blind folded.

The turn came {4-Spades} and Walters slid forward all of his 5,000-chips. Hart had just 9,000 back and called it off.

Reed Hart: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
David Walters: {q-Spades}{9-Spades}

Hart had too many outs to miss as the river {8-Diamonds} gave him a flush and earned him the double. Meanwhile, Walters has chipped up above 100,000 and still remains there despite the lost pot.
