Bekavac Doubles Through Myers

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Just before break, a player opened early for an unknown amount and Dan Bekavac shoved all in for about 50,000 in middle position. Former MSPT champ Carter Myers dropped in calling chips on his left and the opener tank-folded.

Myers: {a-}{k-}
Bekavac: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Bekavac got the dream flop as {j-}{6-}{6-} hit but Myers did pick up a chance with the {k-} on the turn. The river was safe for Bekavac, though.

Sudar Still Climbing

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A short-stacked player was all in for about 10,000 and at risk against Jovan Sudar, who had {a-}{q-} in front of him. His opponent showed {2-}{2-} and was ahead but not for long as the board ran {q-}{k-}{j-}{j-}{a-}.

The Nebraska native appears to be pacing the field as the players prepare for another break.

Chad Holloway

Chad Holloway had a freshly doubled stack and he relayed the details of his come-up.

He said he opened early to 2,500 and Bekavac made it 7,200 a couple of seat to his left. Holloway peeled to bring a {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop. Holloway checked, Bekavac bet 8,500 and Holloway shoved for 41,000.

Bekavac looked him up with {5-}{4-} but was smashed by {4-}{4-} and Holloway collected a sizable double.

Rieck Finds a Call and Dubs

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Mike Rieck appeared to have put in a three-bet from the button with a T10,000 chip and was facing an all-in shove from a middle-position opener. The shove was worth about 29,000 with Rieck barely covered. He let out a whistle as he considered the wager.

After awhile in the tank, someone called a clock. The tournament supervisor said Rieck had 30 seconds and he opted to call it off about halfway through that.

Rieck: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} flop was perfect for Rieck, and the {7-Spades} and {8-Diamonds} didn't change anything. He collected nearly all of his opponent's chips.
