Beasley "Flopped It"

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

The player in the hijack opened to 800 and Jason Beasley defended his big blind. The flop came {4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Beasley checked. The hijack made a continuation-bet of 800 and Beasley called.

The turn came {6-Hearts} and Beasley led out for 2,100. The hijack called. The river came {3-Clubs} and Beasley led out again for 3,500. His opponent thought for a bit and relinquished his hand.

"I flopped it," said Beasley as he turned over {q-Spades}{2-Spades} and collected the chips from the pot that was sent his way.

Roller Coaster Start for Keeline

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Ben Keeline registered the tournament a while before the first break and is currently sitting with a stack of 37,000. According to Keeline, the journey from the starting stack of 30,000 was far from linear. He said in two orbits of play he watched his stack go from 30,000 up to 32,300 before losing a pot with {q-}{q-} on a {j-}{10-}{7-}{9-}{k-} board versus {a-}{q-}. From there, he chipped up to 11,000 and then to 18,000 before finding a double up before the break to reach his current total. Keeline is looking to make Day 2 in today's heat after failing to do so yesterday.

Skrzelowski Hits the Nuts

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante

A player in early position raised to 900 and David Skrzelowski three-bet to 1,900 from middle position. Action folded back to the original raiser and he made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of {4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{a-Spades} and Skrzelowski saw his continuation-bet of 1,000 check-raised to 2,200. He made the call and the dealer brought the turn {9-Clubs}. Skrzelowski's opponent slowed down and checked to him. He then ade a bet of 1,500 and was called.

The river came {k-Hearts} and Skrzelowski's opponent checked to him once again. He fired a bet of 4,000 into the middle and his opponent went into the tank for over a minute before calling.

Skrzelowski tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} for the nut flush and took down the pot upon his opponent mucking.

Wyant Makes a Wheel

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante

A player limped in from under the gun and Jeff Fielder limped in behind him from middle position. Another player limped behind Fielder from the hijack and Michael Wyant pumped it up to 3,00. Only Fielder called and the two saw a flop of {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Fielder checked and Wyant made a continuation-bet of 5,000. Fielder called.

The turn came {4-Clubs} and Fielder checked to Wyant, who continued for 6,000. Fielder made the call. Both players checked the river {5-Spades} to take the hand to showdown.

Wyant showed {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a wheel and Fielder looked back at his cards before mucking.
