Romer's Overbet Works

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Loki Abboud
Loki Abboud

in early position, Bill Romer shoved for well more than the pot on a {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop against three opponents. The first two quickly folded, but Loki Abboud, who was under the gun, called for about 10,000.

Abboud: {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Romer: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Romer's aces held against the straight draw as a {k-Spades} turn was followed by a {4-Clubs} river.

Count Up the Money

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

...because registration had ended for the tournament with the start of Level 10. The unofficial count for today is at 193 entrants, which would put the tournament at 354 total, surpassing the 338 who showed up in September here at Running Aces.

Mike Lang Doubles Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Mike Lang shoved for 11,200 from the cutoff over an under-the-gun open to 3,000 and received a call.

Under the gun: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Lang: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Lang looked done after the first four cards came {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, but a {5-Diamonds} river saved his bacon.

Lang's one of the more recognizable faces on the tour, with a pair of runner-up finishes to his credit.
