With respect to Ryan DePaulo's vlog, we've had a great opportunity to pay homage with this shot of popular local player Dave Ouellette and his buddy Jack.

Ouellette and Jack are sitting with a healthy 138,000 chips as the night winds down with a potential hard stop at 31 players looming.

Bekavac Busted by Santi

Mike Patrick

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Dan Bekavac's run in the tournament has come to an end at the hands of Josh Santi.

Bekavac open-jammed his final 53,000 in the hijack and was called by Santi in the cutoff. The rest of the table folded and Bekavac was at risk.

Dan Bekavac:
Josh Santi:

Help came for Bekavac on the flop, but the turn and river ended his chance of making Day 2 late in the day again.

Big Stack Violence!

Mike Patrick

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

The two biggest stacks in the room just got involved in a huge pot that has solidified Ron Kohner's chip lead as the end of night approaches.

With over 100,000 in the pot on the river with the board reading , Michael Williams checked to Kohner, who bet 20,000. Williams then check-raised to 65,000 and was snap-called by Kohner.
