Stonski's Pair Holds

Level 6 : 150/300, 300 ante
Kyle Stronski
Kyle Stronski

Kyke Stronski opened the betting from the middle, with a raise to 700. He was called by both players in the blinds.

Action checked to Stronski on the {3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, and he bet 1,200. Milton J. called from the small blind, while the big blind got out of the way.

When the turn came {9-Diamonds}, the small blind checked again, and Stronski bet 2,500 only to face a check-raise all-in for about 12,000 chips. Stronski called quickly with a bigger stack, and tabled {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} versus the {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} bluff of his opponent. No card came on the river to help Milton, and he was off to reenter the tournament.

Ramsey Gets a Cooler

Level 5 : 100/200, 200 ante

The flop was already down reading {j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and an early position player was all in for a small stack. Ed Ramsey reshoved for 45,500, sending the third player in the hand into the tank.

Eventually he mucked his cards, and it was a cooler spot with Ramsey way out in front playing pocket jacks for the flopped set against the two pair of his opponent's {j-}{9-}.

Back at the Felt

Level 5 : 100/200, 200 ante

The Tatanka Tipi Room is still full, with 170 stacks in play and a waiting list. Numbers are higher than 170 now, but tournament staff haven't updated the board yet. Until registration closes, its likely they won't know how many entries were recorded for today, but an update will be posted as soon as numbers change.

Level: 5

Blinds: 100/200

Ante: 200

First Break of Day 1b

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Players are away from the felt for their first break of Day 1b. Action returns in Level 5 with blinds at 100/200 with a newly introduced big blind ante of 200.

Late registration and rebuys are open until approximately 4:30, or two and a half more hours, though the tournament room is currently full to the brim with 170 stacks in action, so there's a wait list for new entries. Rebuys will get preference over new entries, if the busted player immediately rebuys.

Toth Overbets Flop

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

An early position player limped into the pot before Brian Toth raised it up to 800 from a couple seats over. It folded back to the limper, and he made the call.

After a check on the {5-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{8-Spades} flop, Toth fired 2,000 into a pot of about 1,800, and after a few seconds thought, his opponent folded. Toth showed the table kings as he collected the pot. "Glad you didn't have an ace."
