Baumstein Gone

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

Three players were involved in the hand on the flop of {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{8-Spades} with around 5,000 chips in the middle. Olivier Busquet checked as did Matt Affleck. Scott Baumstein bet 5,000 and Busquet made it 11,000. Affleck folded and Baumstein reraised all in. Busquet made the call.

Baumstein: {9-Spades}{6-Spades}
Busquet: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Busquet's two pair was up against the flush draw for Baumstein. The turn brought the {7-Hearts} and gave Baumstein a straight draw as well. The river landed with a spade, but it was the {A-Spades} and Baumstein said, "The ace of spades would be a bad card," as he knew it gave Busquet a full house.

Busquet collected the pot and sent Baumstein to the rail as the first player out the door today.

Ramdin Still Running Good

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

With about 5,000 in the pot on the board of {J-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{A-Hearts}, Victor Ramdin bet 3,400. Jesse Martin called, but mucked when he saw Ramdin's {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

"The heater continues," said Justin Smith after the hand.

Smith is referring to the fact that Ramdin won the $5,000 Main Event here at The Big Event last night for a cool $500,000. It was one of the biggest wins of Ramdin's career and we'll see if he can can stay hot in this event.
