Boobekov Very Active

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Earlier today we witnessed Nurlan Boobekov double through Joey Lovelady. Boobekov could've sat back to make the money before getting aggressive, but he decided against that.

Boobekov just raised from the small blind to 7,300 and Steven Silverman three-bet to 18,000 from the big blind. Boobekov tanked for a while but eventually he made it 37,100 and took the pot down.

On the very next hand Salman Behbehani riased to 6,500 from the cutoff and Boobekov three-bet to 14,100. The action was folded back to Behbehani who made it 34,000. This time Boobekov folded and Behbehani took down the pot.

After it was all said and done all three players are up from their previous chip count.

Jan on Jan Crime

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

After a series of bets on a flop of {3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, Jan Sjavik was all in and at risk for 134,900 holding {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Jan Bendik called with {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}, and begin muttering under his breath when the {9-Diamonds} turned, giving Sjavik a straight.

The {4-Clubs} completed the board, giving Sjavik a six-card straight for kicks and giggles, and he doubled to 320,000 chips. Bendik fell to 167,000.

Kitai Gets Cracked

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Davidi Kitai
Davidi Kitai

Timothy Adams opened to 6,500 preflop and Dan Smith called before Davidi Kitai moved all in from the blinds for about 37,000.

Adams made the call and Smith folded.

"I have a good hand" said the Belgian.
"So do I," said Adams.

Kitai: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Adams: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

The board came {J-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds} to give Adams a full house and crack Kitai's aces just a few spots from the money.

Moseley Finally Shows Up

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Andy Moseley on Day 2
Andy Moseley on Day 2

Andy Mosely is known to be a high stakes cash game player but you would almost assume he would take it easy being deep in this tournament.

Assume again.

"How many walks did I get?" Moseley asked jokingly when he just showed up an hour late to Day 3 of this event.

"Quite a lot actually," Salman Behbehani replied with a smile as Moseley started counting his stack.

"I lost only 25,000 actually," Moseley said with a smile and that made Joey Lovelady, to his immediate left, also reconsider his decision of showing up on time.

"I lost a lot more in the hour you were gone," Lovelady said as he's lost almost half his stack during the first hour of play.

We later overheard Moseley say he was in a very juicy cash game all night and didn't get to bed until 7:30 in the morning. On the question if he won Moseley gave some quick cliff notes about his session indicating he lost quite a lot. Good thing Moseley still has a lot of chips in this tournament and eventually he could make up for his losses with a good result here.

Geilich Over 600K

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Ludovic Geilich (Day 2)
Ludovic Geilich (Day 2)

When we arrived at Table 32, Ludovic Geilich had what looked like a four-bet of 24,000 or so in front of him. The three-bettor, Dhru Patel, called in position, and the flop fell {3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Geilich check-called a bet of 25,300, and both players checked it down as the turn and river came {3-Clubs}, {7-Spades} respectively.

Geilich turned over {a-Clubs}{j-Spades} for effectively ace-high, and Patel mucked his hand.

Julius and Glazier Hit the Rail

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Jackie Glazer
Jackie Glazer

On the outer feature table Kyle Julius was eliminated. He was all in with {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} against Javier Etayo's {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} and the flop came {8-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}! Julius was already packing his stuff and getting ready to leave as the turn came the {K-Diamonds} and the river was the {A-Diamonds}.

Jackie Glazier has also been knocked out, she raised preflop from late position and then called off with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} against Jamil Kanji's {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. She picked up a flush draw on the flop but couldn't hit on the {Q-Spades}{2-Spades}{A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} board.

The money bubble is looming...

Mueller Doubles Through Sabini

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

On a {4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} board, [Removed:203] check-raised Carla Sabini's flop bet to 62,000. Sabini called to see a {10-Hearts} on the turn where Mueller moved all in.

Sabini shook her head, “I don't believe you, that's the thing...”

She made the call.

Mueller: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Sabini: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The {8-Diamonds} river changed nothing and Mueller doubled up to about 300,000 while Sabini was left super short.
