Jaffe Dolphin Hunted

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Jonathan Jaffe
Jonathan Jaffe

It won't be back to back WPT titles at Playground for 2014 EPT Montreal champ Jonathan Jaffe.

He ran kings into aces and hung around for a while after, but never got it going again.

Pentefountas Bluffs It Off

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
John Pentefountas
John Pentefountas

After Marvin Rettenmaier and a third player in the hand checked the river of a {8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs} board with about 50,000 in the middle, John Pentefountas took a 22,000-chip stab at the pot.

Rettenmaier took his time about it, but called for most of his chips and when the third player folded, Pentefountas claimed jack-high.

Rettenmaier showed {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and vaulted up the leaderboard as quickly as Pentefountas sunk.

Break!

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

With eight full levels now in the books the players have headed off on the final 15-minute break of the night.

Swennen Maxime
Swennen Maxime

Belgian partypoker qualifier Swennen Maxime, who got in for $5 through an online satellite, has now busted out.

After building up early he couldn't find any traction and shipped it in with top pair and a flush draw.

The issue being he ran into a set, failed to improve and just told PokerNews he plans to play side events for the rest of the week to try and make the trip an even more profitable one.

Treading Water

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Dave Graham
Dave Graham

It appeared dinner-break chip leader Dave Graham was content to tread water over the past level and a half.

However, he dipped his toe in the deep end a moment ago, calling a 1500-chip late position open from the small blind. The big blind came along for the ride and they went three-handed to a {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} flop.

It checked around and both blinds also checked the {10-Hearts} turn before the raiser made it 1,500 again. Graham called, but when the big blind check-raised it up to 4,625 total, the raiser folded and so did Graham.

Code Red: Danger!

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Geoff McNeely
Geoff McNeely

Geoff McNeely built a big stack early on Day 1a but fizzled late.

Now he's back at it again, having fired another bullet today and built up enough to be considered among the chip leaders.

He's also been moved to one of the other leader's tables over the past few minutes, sitting across from Kyle Chang and representing a clear and present danger.

Sexton Out!

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Mike Sexton
Mike Sexton

partypoker Team Pro Mike Sexton has hit the rail.

The WPT commentator and Poker Hall of Famer never really got anything going today and said goodbye running {a-}{Q-} into {A-}{a-}.

All his cards weren't live and the pot wasn't a monster.

Game, Set, Match

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Kyle Chang
Kyle Chang

Kyle Chang keeps on trucking, flopping sets at a torrid pace.

He managed to flop two sets in a row moments ago, and a little earlier, flatted the big blind against a raise with deuces, flopping yet another one.

This time he got paid against what he thought was aces, check-calling all the way down to the river, then pulling out a check-raise that was eventually called.

Chang is now neck in neck for the lead.
