Under the gun, Jason Brice puts in a raise to 18,000. The player on the button, Floyd Vanderford, is the sole caller. The two go heads-up and see the flop come out .
Brice checks, and that is the cue for Vanderford to take a stab. He puts in the same amount, another 18,000, and the decision is back on Brice. After a moment of debate, Brice asks for a count, and Vanderford indicates that he has 59,500 remaining.
Brice mishears the amount and says "Fifty thousand," mistakenly thinking he has raised enough to put his opponent all in. He tries to raise an additional amount, but the dealer informs him that he will be held to the original 50,000. It doesn't matter, as Vanderford concedes "Nice bet," and mucks his hand.
Floyd Vanderford, a local from New Orleans, still has that 59,500 in chips in front of him, and he is more than thrilled just to be playing deep into Day Two. Two weeks ago, after a nice day in the poker room here at Harrah's, Vanderford decided to enter a $65 super-satellite for this event, which he won. He then bested 68 players in the entry satellite on Sunday to earn his seat. This is his first tournament, and he is drawing ever closer to the final table.
