Simoneau Gets River Fold

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player in early position announced a raise of 1,000 as he put in the matching chip and action folded around to the small blind who called. Ryan Simoneau defended his big blind to take action three ways to the flop {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. Action checked to the original raiser and he made a continuation-bet of 1,600. The small blind folded and Simoneau called.

The turn was {8-Clubs} and Simoneau led out for 2,500. His opponent called. The river came {6-Clubs} and Simoneau bet out again for 6,000.

His opponent went into the tank for about two minutes before letting out a groan as he folded and wishing Simoneau a nice hand.

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante
Andrew Peragallo
Andrew Peragallo

Andrew Peragallo was recently seen at a new table and took down a small pot, three-betting over a raise and a call and getting folds preflop. After being eliminated shortly before the final break of the night in yesterday's flight, he is hopeful this shot will be the one that gets him through to tomorrow's Day 2.

Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler arrived in Denver on Friday afternoon fresh off his first career WSOP Main Event cash and has made his way up the mountain to Black Hawk and into the Golden Gates Poker Parlour, having just left the registration desk and taken his seat at the table. Always a personality at the table, Kessler is certain to be a player that will have both eyes and ears on him as the day unfolds.

Chip Counts from Around the Room

Mader Finds Help on River To Double

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

A player in the cutoff raised to 1,500 over limpers from early- and middle position and Phl Mader shoved all in over the top for 7,400 from the button. The two limpers folded and the cutoff made the call.

Phl Mader: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Mader found himself in a coin flip situation that saw his odds decrease as the dealer brought a flop of {3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades}. A turn {4-Spades} gave him extra outs to a wheel on the river but they were unnecessary as the {j-Hearts} fell to give Mader a pair of jacks and secure the double.

Field Surpasses 200

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante

The tournament clock reads 217 entries as the end of Level 3 approaches, meaning the field has already surpassed the total number of runners from Day 1c. With over five hours left of late registration and six-plus levels of play left in that period, the field is sure to continue to grow as the day goes on.
