First Blood to Woods

Most of the world is watching Tiger Woods try to win the Masters today, but there's another Woods trying to take down a big tournament: Mike Woods. He was in the small blind for a hand in which Alistar Melville opened from under the gun to 150,000. Woods re-raised to 350,000, driving Jonathan Aguiar out of the hand. Melville quickly called.

Both players checked an all-paint flop, {Q-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds}. Woods led out for 400,000 on the {2-Clubs} turn and induced a quick fold.

Mike Beasley raised to 125,000 in the cutoff and Michael Woods popped it to 450,000 on the button. Jonathan Aguiar then moved all in from the small blind for 1.47 million. Al Melville gave up his big blind and Mike Beasley got out of the way as well.

Woods went into deep thought, intently staring at Aguiar trying to get a read. After a while in the tank, Woods made the call.

Aguiar: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Woods: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The flop came down {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and Woods maintained his lead. The turn card brought the {4-Clubs} and gave some additional outs to Aguiar. However, it was not meant to be for Aguiar as the {10-Hearts} hit the river and he was eliminated in eighth place.

Woods is up to nearly 4.5 million.

Raise, Re-Raise and Fold

Vanessa' fans.
Vanessa' fans.
Since the elimination of Jon Aguiar, the action has gone raise, re-raise, fold. Surprisingly only one of those pots was won by the highly aggressive Vanessa Selbst. It was the first pot she won at this final table and seemed surprised that her railbirds (about half a dozen strong, and armed with signs that read things like "I'm Gay for Vanessa") didn't applaud. She turned around and saw that they were being interviewed by NAPT hostess Amanda Leatherman.

Seiver Shoves the Short Stack

Scott Seiver raised all in from under the gun for 1.11 million. Action folded to Mike Beasley on the button and he gave a quick thought to the hand before letting it go. Mike Woods did the same from the small blind and then Alistar Melville folded his big blind. Seiver scooped the pot and picked up some chips on the short stack.

The Smallest Possible Flopped Pot for Josephy

Action folded to Scott Seiver, who limped into the pot from the small blind. Cliff Josephy declined his option, taking the players to a flop of {4-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}. Seiver checked. Josephy tried to bet 45,000 until he was informed that the minimum allowable bet was 50,000. Either way, it was enough to fold Seiver.
