Dario Sammartino

Dario Sammartino put his remaining 20,000 stack in the middle and was called by Shyam Srinivasan.

Srinivasan: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Sammartino: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Sammartino was well ahead and thought he only had to fade one of the three eights in the deck. To his disappointment, Srinivasan backed into a flush when the board ran out {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and he hit the rail early on Day 2.

Watson Doubles in Battle of Canadians

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

In a hand at the previous level, Sam Greenwood check-called 16,000 in a battle of the blinds with the board reading {q-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. He then checked the {4-Spades} river and Mike Watson put about 50,000 in, leaving himself just over 1,000 back. Greenwood called, and Watson showed the {q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for the big blind special two pair and took the pot.

Last year's PCA Main Event champ had a short run trying to repeat here, but he trying to take the first $25,000 High Roller of the PokerStars Championship Bahamas instead.

Greenwood Flushes Anderson Out on the River

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Calvin Anderson
Calvin Anderson

On a board reading {k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, with about 20,000 in the pot, Calvin Anderson checked from early position. Action was on Luc Greenwood in middle position and he bet 20,000.

Anderson thought about it and began breaking his stack down to see how much he had. After a moment, Anderson called.

The river was the {8-Spades}. Anderson checked, and Greenwood went into the tank. After about a minute, Greenwood slid a tall stack of T5,000 chips forward and Anderson quickly checked back to confirm his cards before calling off his remaining 45,000 chips.

Greenwood tabled {a-Spades}{10-Spades} for the ace-high flush and Anderson frustratingly flung his cards into the muck. The {6-Diamonds} was flashed, and the dealer turned over his other card, revealing the {8-Diamonds}. Anderson had turned the nut straight but Greenwood backed into a flush. Anderson hit the rail early after registering at the start of play today.

Georgios Vrakas shoved all in against three opponents from the big blind with the board reading {a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Stephen Chidwick called for 54,100 on his left, and everyone else mucked, though Bill Perkins said he had an ace.

Chidwick: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Vrakas: {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Chidwick's ace was better though, and he held against the flush draw when a {3-Spades} bricked the river.

Gonzalez Four-Bets, Shows One

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

After a Bertrand Grospellier open to 4,200 in middle position and an Adrian Mateos three-bet to 10,800 in the cutoff, online whiz Fabrizio Gonzalez made it 26,600 to go on the button. Grospellier folded, as did Mateos after some thought. The latter smiled and asked to see one. Gonzalez obliged and turned over the {k-Hearts} after mixing his cards around.
