Nguyen Gets It In Draw vs. Draw

With the flop reading {J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, Andrew Nguyen bet 1,450 only to have his opponent move all in for 7,725 total. Nguyen shuffled the necessary chips to call before finally decided to plop them down in the center of the table.

Nguyen: {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Both players were on draws and Nguyen's opponent got there immediately when the {2-Diamonds} struck the turn and filled his flush draw. The {A-Hearts} fell on the river but Nguyen's wheel was irrelevant. With this loss Nguyen is now down to about 23,000.

Daryanani Busts Ingles

A series of preflop raises culminated with Jared Ingles calling all in for about 18,000 total with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Unfortunately for the Day 1a bubble boy, Bobby Daryanani had him in bad shape with {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

The flop came down {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} to give Ingles a few extra outs, but neither the {3-Spades} nor the {9-Clubs} river was what he was looking for, ending his Main Event.

Pushing Back Against Selbst

Action folded to Vanessa Selbst on the button and she raised to 400. The small blind called and the big blind decided to throw out a three-bet to 1,225. Selbst called with little hesitation and the small blind tagged along as well.

The dealer produced a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and there were two checked to Selbst. Selbst reached for chips and bet 1,400. The small blind called and the big blind decided to let the two tango alone.

Fourth street was the {2-Hearts} and the small blind checked for a second time. Selbst put 1,900 in the middle and the small blind immediately raised to 6,100. Selbst folded just as quickly and watched as the chips were pushed to her opponent. She's currently sporting a stack of about 19,000 after that loss.

Nguyen Doubles Up

After Andrew Nguyen opened the action and found a three-bet from an opponent, action folded back to him. Nguyen four-bet to 2,325 only to have his opponent come over the top once again with a five-bet to 4,550.

Action was back on Nguyen and he pulled his bet back and came out with even more chips. Nguyen six-bet to 8,050 and after about a minute his opponent announced that he was all in. Nguyen snapped for 15,450 total and the hands were tabled:

Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Opponent: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The board fell {K-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Nguyen's aces were able to hold, scoring him a double up to about 31,000.

Burbick's Raise Takes It

Picking up the action on a {K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop, an opponent bet 1,000 into Corey Burbick who called to see the {6-Spades} turn. A bet of 1,400 came this time from Burbick's opponent and after a few moments, Burbick called to see the {10-Spades} river.

A third bet came from his opponent in the form of 1,800. Burbick spent about 30 seconds in the tank before raising to 5,600, taking it down after his opponent folded.
