Lor Gets a River Raise Through

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

There was around 4,000 in the middle with a board of {q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Vue Lor was under the gun in a heads up pot against the player on the button. Lor had checked and his opponent had 2,000 out in front of him.

"Five," said Lor, throwing in a check-raise to 5,000. The dealer confirmed the amount.

The player on the button went into the tank for just over a minute before deciding to let his hand go, resulting in the dealer shipping Lor the pot.

Massey and Rogowski Enter

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante
Andy Rogowski in Day 1b action
Andy Rogowski in Day 1b action

Both Aaron Massey and Andy Rogowski were seen at the same table during yesterday's Day 1b flight with the two playing several pots and exhibiting a handful of friendly verbal exchanges. Both players were knocked out of the tournament late in the evening after the last break of the night.

Rogowski was just spotted getting back in on the action and moments later, Massey was standing behind him. The two exchanged more pleasantries, laughing about some of the instances from the night before. Massey then walked to an adjacent table and sat back down at his seat, proving that both players have some unfinished business and are ready to get back at it.

Jacobs Toasted

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

Jeremy Jacobs was down to 1,200 and three-bet all in from the small blind over a cutoff open to 400 from Paul Welke. The big blind cold-called and Welke called as well.

No side pot was necessary as both Welke and the big blind checked through the runout of {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and all three hands were tabled

Jeremy Jacobs: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}
Big Blind: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Paul Welke: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Welke's tens up were best over the other two player's ace kicker to the board's two pair of nines and sevens, earning him the pot and sending Jacobs to the rail.

Gahan Finds a Hero Call for Stacks

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante
Kyle Gahan
Kyle Gahan

The board read {j-Spades}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs} in a heads up pot with around 20,000 in the middle and the cutoff was all in for 10,400. Action was on Kyle Gahan in the big blind, who was facing a decision for all of his chips.

After at least two minutes, Gahan called and hands were tabled.

Cutoff: {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Kyle Gahan: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Gahan found a call with nothing more than top pair, second kicker, and it wound up being the correct decision as he found his opponent had pure air. Gahan's stack was totaled to 10,300, scoring him the full double and leaving his opponent with a stack totaling one chip of the smallest denomination.

Scorsone WIns an Early Pot

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante
Michael Scorsone
Michael Scorsone

The player on the button opened to 200 and Michael Scorsone put in a three-bet to 800 from the small blind. The opener called and action went heads up to a flop of {5-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}. Scorsone made a continuation-bet of 1,300 and the player on the button quickly called.

The turn was {5-Diamonds} and Scorsone continued, firing out another 3,000. The player on the button slowed down, thinking for 30 seconds before putting in chips to call.

The river fell {10-Spades} and Scorsone tapped the felt, looking over to his opponent on his right. The player looked down at his stack and then over at Scorsone's. He thought for a few moments afterward and then threw in a purple T5,000 chip. Scorsone quickly tossed one in behind him.

The player on the button showed {j-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a jack-high flush. Scorsone out-pipped him, tabling {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} for a queen-high flush to earn him the pot.

Jacobs Four-Bets Preflop

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

Jeremy Jacobs was in the cutoff and saw action folded to him. He opened to 300 and received a call from the player on the button. Kyna England was next to act in the small blind and three-bet to 1,400.

The big blind folded to put action back onto Jacobs, who announced a four-bet to 2,800. The player on the button quickly folded and England thought for about 15 seconds before following suit, resulting in a won pot preflop for Jacobs.
