Ricardo Eyzaguirre is celebrating his birthday by running deep in the first event of the series. When all is said and done he will have eclipsed the half a million mark in lifetime career earnings as he is currently sitting at $499,610 and is guaranteed at least a cash of $4,010.

Eyzaguirre is near the top of the food chain with his 2,950,000 stack and is in search of his first career six-figure cash as well as a shiny new Borgata trophy.

Arnold Slows Down the Red-Hot Datashvili

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Jackob Datashvili seemed to have caught wind under his sails after the dinner break, jumping well over the two million mark before finding any real hiccups. Pearce-Christian Arnold was that hiccup as Datashvili three-bet jammed and Arnold quickly called for his 1,010,000 stack.

Pearce-Christian Arnold: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Jackob Datashvili: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Arnold was still well in front with his ace-king high. A {3-Hearts} landed on the turn, giving Datashvili a flush draw but the {6-Clubs} river was not it and he was forced to push over 1,010,000 to Arnold who secured a complete double with his big slick.

Butz Lands a Double with Big Slick

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

A player moved all in from under the gun for 465,000 and Brett Butz called his remaining 385,000 all-in from middle position. The rest of the table folded and the two remaining players turned over their hands with Butz at risk.

Brett Butz: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Butz pulled in the pot with his two pair for a complete double through his opponent.

Cappuccio Extracts from Leu

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Joe Cappuccio
Joe Cappuccio

The board showed {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Clubs} and there was just over 400,000 in the pot. Action fell on Joe Cappuccio who fired in 280,000 and Matthew Leu snap-called.

Leu tabled {q-Spades}{10-Spades} for three dimes on the river but it was not good enough as Cappuccio showed his {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, giving him a straight and the best hand as he scooped in the pot, pushing him back over the million mark.
