¡Vamos, Vegas! Sergio Perez Races Down the Strip in Red Bull F1 Promo
Level 4
: 200/400, 400 ante
The Oracle Red Bull Formula One racing team released a promotional video ahead of November’s Las Vegas Grand Prix and it's an action-packed preview of what F1 has to offer when it invades the Strip this fall.
Readers might remember hearing about the race car tearing through the Wynn Las Vegas last November. It appears that was part of the production for Red Bull's epic race through Las Vegas.

Mincher Hangs in for a Win
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was opened under the gun to 1,000. Brandon Mincher called in middle position and the big blind came along too.
The 10♥Q♦J♥ flop quickly checked through to an 8♦ turn. It was checked again to Mincher who put out a bet of 2,200. The big blind folded but the player under the gun opted to check-raise to 10,000. Mincher called and they were off to a river.
The 7♣ landed and surprisingly it quickly checked through. Mincher tabled A♦3♦ for a missed flush draw but he ended up being good and scooped the pot.

First Four-Bet of the Day From Joseph
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Action was opened in middle position by Johanssy Joseph to 700. The button called and then the small blind put in the cold three-bet to 2,200. Action then folded back to Joseph who opted to put in a four-bet to 8,800. The button folded and action was back on the small blind who thought through his options before finding a call.
The K♥6♥K♣ flop hit the felt and the small blind checked. Joseph continued for 5,200. The small blind didn't take long before announcing "all in".
Joseph snap-called and the cards hit their backs.
Small Blind: A♦7♠
Johanssy Joseph: A♥K♠
The turn 7♣ and river 9♣ would not be able to help as the small blind was drawing dead. Joseph scooped a massive pot early in Day 1c.

Garney Takes It Down
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action was opened in late position to 700. It folded to Elias Garney on the button who called and the small blind called too.
The 7♣8♥3♠ flop hit the felt and action checked all the way to Garney on the button who put out a bet of 1,000. The small blind called and the original raiser folded.
The turn brought a J♦ and action checked to Garney again who continued for 2,400. This time the small blind couldn't hold on any longer and folded. Garney scooped a small one.
Garney won his seat by way of a $50 qualifier on PokerStars.com. Over 25 other players found value in these online qualifiers and got a seat. Will one of them win it all? Only time will tell!
