Uhlmann Applies Pressure

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Samuel Uhlmann limped from under the gun and saw Rich Dixon and Ben Keeline follow suit from middle position and the hijack, respectively. Joe Bartholdi was in the cutoff and pumped it up to 8,000. Uhlman folded, Dixon called, and Keeline folded.

With action heads up, the flop came {j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} and Dixon checked. Bartholdi bet 10,000 and it was good to get a fold from Dixon, earning him the pot in the process.

Trips Good for Zoller

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Nate Zoller had just bet 7,500 into a pot of around 21,000 from the small blind on a board of {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and been called by the big blind. He tabled {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for trip threes and his opponent mucked.

According to Zoller, there were three limps in front of him prior to completing from the small blind. The big blind checked his option to take action five ways to the aforementioned flop. All five players checked.

Zoller bet 5,000 on the turn got two calls from the big blind and a player in early position before only receiving one call on his river bet.

Geller Smashes the Flop

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mike Wheeler opened from under the gun to 3,200 and action folded around to Greg Geller, who three-bet to 10,000 from the cutoff. Wheeler made the call.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{j-Spades} and Wheeler checked. Geller announced he was all in, putting forward a large stack of yellow, T1,000 chips. In total, his shove was for about 35,000, which was far too much for Wheeler to commit as he let his cards go and the pot was shipped to Geller.

There was around 11,000 in the pot as the dealer fanned a flop of {5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Hearts} and both Mike Wheeler, who was in middle position, and the player in the hijack checked. The player on the button bet 6,000 and both players called.

The turn fell {j-Spades} and all three players checked. The river came {6-Spades} and Wheeler bet 6,500. The hijack folded and the player on the button thought for a few moments before matching the bet.

Wheeler tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for aces up and his opponent sent his cards to the muck, tapping the felt to give Wheeler recognition for a nice hand.

Dea Nearing 200K

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andrew Dea
Andrew Dea

Andrew Dea was at 52,000 coming back from dinner break and chipped up to around 120,000 in Level 10. He was since heard saying he had 200,000 and currently appears to be just shy of that figure, albeit one of the largest stacks in the room as play continues into the evening.
