Ana Galajian Takes a Pot

The UTG player raised to 1800 and Ana Galajian re-raised to 5000. The table folded back to the UTG player, who called. The flop was {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} and Galajian bet 10K, over half of her remaining stack. After a long think, the UTG player folded. Galajian is now up to 31K.

30 More Minutes of Play

There are roughly 30 more minutes of play left in Day 1. The ballroom is somewhat quiet for a poker tournament as the remaining players are conserving what little energy they have left for the final stretch. Media row is amost empty and the real action is downstairs in the poker room where the side cash games are in full swing for a Saturday night in the City of Angels. The cash games are always juicy at Commerce, but during the L.A. Poker Classic, the games get a little more interesting when all the Las Vegas pros come to town along with pros from all over the world who want to feast on the local fish with deep pockets.
