Chip Counts on Final Break

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Here's a look at a few of the notable stacks in the room on the final break.

Final Break of the Night

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The remaining 55 players are headed out for their final break of the night. Action resumes in 20 minutes in Level 15 with blinds at 1200/2400/2400.

Once players return from the break, there will only be two levels left in Day 1a.

Ashling Still Stacking

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ming Ashling
Ming Ashling

Ming Ashling has been on a run of late, and not even a table change could break his run. Shortly after arriving at the new table, Ashling called behind after Shannon Brass raised from under the gun to 4,000.

Adrian Baran also called from late position to see {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{a-Diamonds} on the flop. Brass led out for 3,000 before Ashling made it 15,000 to go. Baran quickly mucked, but Brass called.

When the turn came {3-Spades} Ashling fired 25,000 after a check from Brass. Brass called, and they both checked the {k-Clubs} river. Brass paired the ace on the flop with {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, but Ashling had a better kicker that also paired with {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.

Ashling Limp-Shoves

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ming Ashling limped in from under the gun, and he got a call from a couple seats over before Tyler Williams went all-in for 24,900. Ashling quickly came over top with a larger shove, and after a bit of thought, the other player released his hand.

Ashling was playing kings, against the jacks of WIlliams. The board of {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Spades} ran out clean for kings, and the player who folded told the table he mucked tens.

Level: 14

Blinds: 1,000/2,000

Ante: 2,000

Borsheim Donks the Flop

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Brian Borsheim
Brian Borsheim

It folded to the button and they put in a bet of 3,500. Brian Borsheim called in the small blind, as did the big blind. The flop came {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Borsheim donked out for 3,600 and both other players got out of the way.

Woloshyn Defends His Blind

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Kyle Woloshyn
Kyle Woloshyn

Derek Klimosko opened the betting from the cutoff with a raise to 4,000. He was called by the player in the button, as well a Kyle Woloshyn in the big blind.

Everyone checked the {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop, but when the {10-Diamonds} hit the turn, WOloshyn fired 4,000 into the middle, enough to clear off the other two players.
