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.

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.

Bartelme Holds With Queens

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

Missy Bartelme had bet and was facing an all-in shove worth around 50,000 on a {4-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop. She called with {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} and was pleased to see her opponent roll over a crushed {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. The {10-Spades} and {7-Diamonds} were no threat to the queens and Bartelme surged to six figures.

Five Bills

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

Day 1b has hit a milestone with 500 entries. That pushes the two-flight total to just shy of 850, meaning the prize pool could get within shouting distance of $1 million depending on how the last 90 minutes or so of registration shake out.

Scotter Clark
Scotter Clark

Scotter Clark was all in from an early position for about 30,000 and Missy Bartelme called out of the big blind with {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}. Clark showed a dominated {q-Spades}{j-Spades} and needed help.

He found some with a gutter on the {9-}{k-}{q-} flop but nothing further emerged to help him.

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Tim Garles
Tim Garles

Tim Garles bet 25,000 into a pot of 40,000 from the big blind on {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. According to another player at the table, Garles had defended big blind for 5,000 against an early open and check-raised from 6,000 to 13,000 on the flop.

His opponent stuck in a raise to 62,000 and Garles went deep into the tank. Finally, he shoved for 93,000 or so and was snap-called.

Garles: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Garles got up to leave but the {j-Hearts} arrived to save him.
