Nebraska native, and Mid-States Poker Tour regular Jeff Bryan is at the top of the counts at the moment. Blake Bohn and John Reading are not far behind. Ken Rosheisen and Lance Harris have had great levels post-break and are in the top ten at the moment.
New players to the field include Sherry Hammers, Tom Hammers, DJ Buckley, and Dave Gonia.
Alan Carty raised to 600 in early position. A player in middle position, a player on the button, and Terry Ring in the big blind all called.
The flop came . Terry shoved his remaining 1,150 chips into the middle, and all three players called.
Carty checked the flop, the player in middle position bet 2,200, and only the player on the button called.
All players checked the river.
The player in middle position turned over for the ace high flush. The player on the button said, "I had you all the way to the river," as Ring mucked his cards silently and walked away from the table.
Ring will have one more opportunity to reenter, as all players are allowed one reentry per flight.
A player in middle position checked when the flop came , and Eric Loehr bet 6,000. With action back on the player in middle position, he shoved all in for a total of 11,975. After a moment of thinking about it, Loehr called.
Loehr was ahead when he tabled , but he would need to fade a diamond as his opponent tabled for a flush draw.
The turn and river failed to improve his opponent's hand, and Loehr chipped up to 55,000, while his opponent was eliminated.
As previously reported, Terry Ring was recently eliminated. But Ring has opted to utilize his one reentry, and is officially the 200th player to register in flight 1b.
If we reach 21 more players in the next three levels, we will officially have a $400,000 prize pool for the second time in Mid-States Poker Tour history.
