Odds and Ends

I took a quick stroll through the tournament area, here's what has been going on...

Zach "Umbrella Man" Hall is sitting on 9,500.

Dennis Phillips told me that he has 12,000 in chips. He was moved to Roberto Brenes' table.

Roberto Brenes (Humberto's son) lost a pot with {A-Spades} {J-Hearts}. The board read {A-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {9-Hearts}. Roberto checked and his opponent bet 3,000 on the river. Brenes made a crying call with two pair, aces and sevens. His opponent tabled {Q-Hearts} {7-Hearts} for trip sevens and he won the pot. Roberto slipped to under 9,000.

Eddie Sabat, APPT Macau Champion, took a hit and his stack is under 4,000.

And what's a poker tournament without Humberto Brenes crooning to his table?
