Burchfield Building

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 300 ante

Picking action up in a raised pot on the Q62 flop, Kris Burchfield checked his small blind to Ike Nlemchi in the big blind who bet 5,500.

Alejandro Armas called from middle position and Burchfield now came back with a check-raise to 25,000, committing about half of his stack.

Nlemchi folded, as did Armas to send the pot to Burchfield.

Daly Rockets up the Counts With Huge Four-Way All-In

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 300 ante
Jason Daly
Jason Daly

The PokerNews live reporting team arrived at Table 5 just in time to see a massive four-way all-in preflop involving Christopher Chomenko in the small blind, Julius Threadgill in early position, Jason Daly in middle position, and Han Feng in the cutoff.

Feng, Daly, and Chomenko were all in for about 40,000 each, while Threadgill would still be alive if he lost the pot.

Christopher Chomenko: 8764
Jason Daly: K865
Han Feng: QJ109
Julius Threadgill: AK107

The dealer spread a board of 652A5, giving Daly a full house of sixes over fives to take down the massive pot while eliminating Feng and Chomenko.

Chomenko has since re-entered, while Feng has left the tournament area. If he chooses, he'll have another 90 minutes approximately to hop back into the field before registration closes.

Sundara into Six Figures

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 200 ante

Picking action up on the turn with about 15,000 in the middle and a board of Q758, Liam McDonough checked from the small blind, Kai Yang did likewise in middle position, and Ravee Sundara allowed a free river card from the button.

On that river, the A fell, prompting a bet of 3,500 from McDonough. Yang folded, but Sundara now raised to 20,000.

McDonough thought for a moment and then folded, telling Sundara, "sneaky, good check back on the turn" as the pot was pushed to Sundara.
