Mester Doesn't Mess Around

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante
Gerald Mester
Gerald Mester

On Table #41 Gerald Mester was sitting in the under-the-gun position and had limped in. The player on his left did the same. The player in late position raised to 1,600. The cutoff called, so did the players in the blinds. Mester however then decided to shove all in, everyone folded back to the player in the small blind. She decided to call. Mester flipped his cards open but the player in the big blind hadn't acted yet. The dealer quickly tried to cover the exposed cards with his hands but it was too late, everyone had seen Mester's hole cards already. The big blind opted to fold but showed he had {A-Spades}{10-}.

Gerald Mester: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
The small blind: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Spades}{A-Diamonds} - no danger for Mester as he more than doubled.

Dinner Break

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The players have gone for their 30-minute dinner break. At the end of the break, the late registration and/or re-entry period will be over. After that, we'll soon know the final details of how many players will go through to tomorrow. Even if they don't make it through to tomorrow via this flight, there's still one more hyper-turbo tonight in about 45 minutes and another one tomorrow morning at 10am.
