The Field Just Got Harder

Level 11 : 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
Christian Harder
Christian Harder

Add one more poker pro to the Day 1a mix as Christian Harder has arrived from Maryland and just jumped into action.

Harder has amassed more than $4.5 million in live tournament earnings dating back to 2007, including a career-best $571,965 for finishing fourth in the 2009 WPT $25,000 Championship. In 2017, he had his signature win when he won the PokerStars Championship Bahamas (formerly the PCA) $5,000 Main Event for $429,664.

Toss in a half dozen other six-figure scores and it’s clear to see why Harder should be one of the most feared players in the field.

As far as Parx is concerned, Harder is looking to improve upon his fourth-place finish in the 2018 Parx Big Stax XXIV 1500 event, which was good for $37,311.

"He's a 92% Favorite ... There Ya Go!"

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jeffrey Gross raised to 4,000 under the gun and was met by an all-in three-bet jam to 17,800 from the player in the hijack. The rest of the players folded and Gross asked for a count before making the call.

Jeffrey Gross: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

"He's a 92 percent favorite," the at-risk player said pessimistically.

It was well-founded skepticism though as the flop came down {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{j-Hearts} to pair Gross. The {j-Spades} turn made it trips and the hijack simply added, "There ya go."

The meaningless {4-Clubs} was run out on the river and Gross was pushed the pot.
