Evening Chip Counts

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Weng's Straight Leaves Ter-Gabrielyan With Crumbs

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Bin Weng opened to 2,500 on the button and was called by Erik Ter-Gabrielyan in the big blind.

Ter-Gabrielyan check-called a 2,000 bet from Weng on the {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop, a 9,300 bet from Weng on the {5-Clubs} turn, and an all-in shove for 44,600 from Weng on the {j-Diamonds} river.

Weng tabled {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for the nut straight, which had Ter-Gabrielyan's {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs} beat to leave Ter-Gabrielyan with just a few big blinds.

Wingerden Makes The Right Call

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Cottrell van Wingerden
Cottrell van Wingerden

Cottrell van Wingerden was on the button and facing an all-in bet of 44,000 from his opponent in the big blind on a completed board of {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

Wingerden thought it over and eventually called, which got a "Good call," from his opponent, who tabled {q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a missed flush draw. Wingerden held the {a-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a pair of aces — good for the pot and elimination.

Herrera Doubles

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The player under-the-gun opened to 2,500 and action folded to Manuel Herrera on the button, who three-bet to 9,000. The blinds folded back to the initial opener, who called.

The flop came {a-Spades}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts} and it was checked to Herrera, who continued for 6,000. The under-the-gun player then check-raised all in, which was enough to put Herrera all in for his last 30,000. Herrera called and hands were face up.

Manuel Herrera: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Under-the-gun: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The {j-Spades} turn improved Herrera to a straight and the {q-Clubs} river changed nothing — awarding Herrera the full double up.

Herrera, who won Event #4: $500 5-Card PLO High a few days ago, is trying his hand at No-Limit Hold'em today and will be looking to make a deep run.

Arnwine Wins With Ladies

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Justin Arnwine
Justin Arnwine

Justin Arnwine was in the cutoff and had the player in the small blind all-in preflop for their last 20,000 in chips.

Justin Arnwine: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Small blind: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Arnwine was ahead, and the {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts} runout kept him best with queens for the elimination.

Mitich up; Weng Down

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Jacob Mitich raised to 2,000 from the hijack and was called by Sang Kim in the small blind and the player in the big blind.

Both blinds checked to Mitich on the {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop and he bet 1,600. Both his opponents quickly folded and Mitich added to his stack.

At another table, it appeared Bin Weng suffered a set-under-set cooler and lost a considerable amount of chips.

Jeremy Fineman

Sang checked to Fineman on the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop and he bet 3,000. Both Herrera and Kim called.

The {a-Hearts} appeared on the turn and Kim checked to Fineman, who bet 10,000. This time Herrera and Kim quickly folded and Fineman took down the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Dean Phelps
Dean Phelps

Cottrell van Wingerden opened to 2,000 from under-the-gun and was called by the player to his direct left, Dean Phelps in the cutoff, and the player in the big blind.

Action checked to Wingerden on the {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} flop and he bet 2,500. Phelps and the player in the big blind called.

The turn brought the {3-Hearts} and it was checked to Phelps, who bet 7,500. Wingerden got out of the way and the big blind called.

The {8-Hearts} completed the board and it was checked to Phelps once more. This time Phelps bet 15,000 and his opponent folded — awarding the pot to Phelps without a showdown.
