Good Luck, Bad Luck

Matt Hansen

Level 13: 3,000/5,000/5,000

Two players are having different experiences in Level 13.

Jake Green was seen picking up the pieces with just 4,000 left as another player stacked up most of his chips while showing A♥J♥. The dealer cleaned up the board and Green found a little bit of life on the next hand with J♦2♠, but he was seen leaving the tournament area just a few moments later.

The good news is that Danny Jessup has found some life after getting his short stack in with A♣A♠. Jessup had two callers and a clean runout for the fresh stack.

Player	Chips	Progress
Danny Jessup	78,000 78,000	78,000

"If You Didn't Call Him, I Was Going to Call Him."

Matt Hansen

A player was already committed for less than Logan Smith's shove of 99,000 and the table gave way to the heads-up battle.

Raiser: A♦Q♠ All in
Logan Smith: J♣J♠

The board ran out 2♠8♦K♥4♥8♥ and Smith's jacks held on as his opponent briskly made his way for the door. Based on the table talk after the hand, it seemed as though the player had built up a reputation for playing loose throughout the evening.

"If you didn't call him, I was going to call him," another player at the table said.

Meanwhile, 2022 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown champion Mark Davis is getting into the higher gears with a stack over the half-million mark.

Player	Chips	Progress
Mark Davis	568,000 225,500	225,500

Logan Smith	242,500 242,500	242,500

Action was heads up with 15,000 in the middle and 8♦J♠Q♠ on the board when Shaun "The Ghost" Emery checked before his opponent across the table shoved for 61,000. Emery went into the tank for a moment and considered his options before he put out exact change to call.

Shaun Emery: A♥A♦

The board finished up J♦4♦ and Emery held on with aces while his opponent broke land speed records towards the rail.

Phan Parks Comeskey

Matt Hansen

Level 10: 1,000/2,000/2,000
