We got to the table with Scott Clements calling a reraise of his opener. The flop came and Clements checked to his opponent who bet 40,000. The multiple WSOP bracelet winner studied his opponent and grabbed a stack of T5,000 chips and broke them down as if he were about to make a bet. He reached back and grabbed a few more chips and pushed out a bet of approximately 125,000. His foe snap-folded to give Clements the pot moving is stack to 420,000 in the process.
We didn't catch the action but Grayson Ramage was all in out of the small blind and at risk on a flop of with against the that Joseph Cheong held from the button.
The turn would give Ramage more outs as it was the . One of those outs would hit on the river as the dealer put out the to give Ramage a straight. That doubled Ramage up to 275,000 while Cheong finds himself sliding quickly down in the chip counts with just 170,000 behind now.
Joseph Cheong opened for a raise to 14,000 and Grayson Ramage reraised to 31,000. It was folded back to Cheong who made the call. Both players would check the flop and Cheong would check-call a 22,000 bet from Ramage on the turn. The river was the and Cheong checked again. Ramage put out a bet of 58,000 and after just a few seconds Cheong put out a single chip to indicate he was calling.
Ramage turned over for air and Cheong would take down the pot with better air — — as his king high was good. The table muttered their appreciation and Cheong is back up to 400,000 in chips while Ramage moved down to 180,000.
The tournament field is down to the final four tables or 40 players. That means after two eliminations the field will go hand-for-hand until the top 37 players are reached.
We found Austin Lewis sitting with 650,000 in chips in front of him which is good enough to move him past Joseph Cheong into the chip lead. Lewis recently took down the Choctaw Card Player Main Event on August 1st for $183,025. A deep run here could top that great result.
With just 38 players remaining, hand-for-hand play has begun. Once one player is eliminated, the field will bag and tag for the evening, each guaranteed a payday on Day 2.
