Ak-Khatri Jams Into Watts

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Steve Watts check-called a bet worth 6,000 by Husseni Al-Khatri on the heads-up turn of {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and then checked again the {a-Spades} on the river. Al-Khatri then jammed for 7,900 and Watts reluctantly folded. When the hand was over, Watts asked "king-queen no good?" but received no reply from his table neighbour.

Bob Malvasi can also be found at the same table as well.

Argelazi Chips Up Early on Day 1b

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

Eliran Argelazi found himself back at the very same table that he spent most of Day 1a on before he was eliminated and he started well once more. In a heads-up hand to the {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds} river, he raised a bet to 7,600 and his opponent went deep into the tank. The clock was called on the opponent, who then called and Argelazi tabled {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for the nuts.

Arthur Runs Away With the Lead

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante
Karen Arthur
Karen Arthur

At least three players have been eliminated already and that also includes Hasmukh Khodiyara as well as Dritan Arapi. The former appears to have vanished from the same seat as Valdir Cordeiro Dos Santos and Karen Arthur was stacking up even more chips.

"It's the seat of death, set over set queens versus eights," she remarked. Her stack has already hit two and a half times of what she started with and barely 45 minutes have passed so far. Cordeiro Dos Santos is back in the field already for attempt number two.

Arovaara Chips Up Early On

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

On the tail end of a medium-sized pot, Tom Arovaara bet 2,300 and his sole remaining opponent called with the board showing {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. Arovaara tabled the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for aces full of kings and won the chips to consolidate a decent start into the day. Arovaara had already been among the early big stacks on Day 1a before he bowed out in the late stages.

Arthur Off to a Good Start

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

On the tail end of a bigger pot between Husseni Al-Khatri and Karen Arthur, the completed board showed {4-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{a-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Arthur was facing a bet worth 7,500 by Al-Khatri and tanked for a while before making the call. Her opponent tabled the {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} which Arthur had beat with the {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} to win a seizable pot in the first level of the day.

Alon Beats Ward in Showdown

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante
Ido Alon
Ido Alon

Ido Alon raised to 300 and Phil Ward then three-bet to 1,000, which Alon called. The {j-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop went check, check, and Alon led the {3-Spades} turn for 800. Ward called and both checked again the {4-Diamonds} on the river. Alon turned over the {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and the mighty ducks were good enough to win the pot.

It appears that both had already clashed earlier as Alon has already increased his stack by quite some margin while Ward is down nearly one third of the starting stack.
