Chip Counts

Stout's Stacking

Matt Stout opened to 11,500 from middle position, and both Michele Tocci (small blind) and John Gordon (big blind) called.

The dealer fanned {4-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, and the action checked to Stout who continued for 15,000. Tocci moved all in for what looked like 50,000 or so, and Gordon folded. Stout instantly called.

Tocci: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Stout: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Stout held as the turn and river came {9-Diamonds}, {5-Diamonds} respectively, and Tocci was eliminated.

After the hand, Stout was very happy to be stacking a few newfound chips.

"Back in the right direction," he said, smiling.

Magnil Doubles Through Tremzin

Fredrik Magnil found himself all in preflop from the button for 129,000 holding {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and up against Gleb Tremzin, who held the inferior {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} on the button. The {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{J-Hearts} flop wasn't particularly interesting as neither player held a heart, and the {7-Diamonds} turn meant Tremzin needed a king on the river to stay alive. Much to Magnil's delight, it wasn't in the cards as the {3-Hearts} peeled off.

Jelle Boekema was all in and at risk preflop for his last 118,000 holding {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, and Robert Mizrachi had him crushed with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

The {9-Spades}{a-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop gave Boekema a leading pair of aces however, and he successfully doubled when the turn and river came {8-Diamonds}, {7-Diamonds} respectively.

Serock Vaults Into Chip Lead

Joe Serock has just taken the chip lead with 1.3 million in chips.

We found Serock and Antonio Matias engaged in a pot where the board read {10-Clubs}{2-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. After an unknown series of bets, Matias announced that he was all in for roughly 255,000. Serock called quickly to find out that he was ahead.

Serock: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Matias: {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The river was four-across, but it was not the one Matias was looking for, as it was the {9-Diamonds}, ensuring that Serock would score an elimination. After dragging in this pot we clocked Serock around 1.3 million for the top stack in the room.

Benger Doubles Through Grishin

Griffin Benger opened to 10,000 in the hijack and was called by Christian Niederhauser on the button. Dmitry Grishin squeezed to 30,000 from the big blind, only to see Benger shove for 123,000. Niederhauser folded, Grishin called, and the hands were revealed.

Benger: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Grishin: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} to secure the double up for Benger.

Calvin's Got a Job

Calvin Anderson (Day 1a)
Calvin Anderson (Day 1a)

Calvin Anderson and Jerry Wong were heads up on a flop of {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Anderson led out for 10,000, and Wong called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}, Anderson led again - this time for 17,500 - and Wong tank-called.

The river was a repeat seven (the {7-Clubs}), and Anderson checked. Wong examined the board for a bit, then tossed out 26,000. Anderson thought for 30 seconds or so then called.

"Good call," Wong muttered, showing {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for effectively queen-high.

Anderson flipped over {10-Spades}{6-Hearts} for sevens and sixes, raking in the pot.

Stopka. Hammer Time

We caught up to find Dominik Stopka all in and at risk before the flop. Day 1a chip leader Maxim Lobzhanidze called the all in and the two were racing with five cards to come.

Stopka: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Lobzhanidze: {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

Lobzhanidze paired up when the flop brought {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Stopka shook his head as the turn was the {8-Hearts} and the river the {7-Hearts}, sealing his fate in this tournament. Lobzhanidze, on the other hand, is now sitting around 190,000 in chips.

Reed Doubles Through Katchalov

Matthew Reed was all in for 87,000 with {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} against Eugene Katchalov's {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{2-Spades} as Reed improved to quad aces to secure the double up.
