2010-11 World Series of Poker Circuit - Harrah's Atlantic City
Micah Raskin was all in preflop for about 60,000, and he found action from Wooyang Lin. Raskin was working with
, and he was dominated by the
of Lin.
Things would improve for Raskin by the time the river card rolled around. The board ran
, and the at-risk player chased down his flush. Lin didn't realize it at first:
"Yesssss! ... Noooo! ... Ahhhh, shit!" he finished.
Raskin is back to 124,000 or so now, while Lin falls to 65,000 with that loss.
There was a big pot up for grabs when we joined heads-up action on a
. There had to be at least 130,000 piled in the middle of the table, and Chris Klodnicki fired out a bet of about 100,000. He was up against Seth Fischer, and Mr. Fischer made the call for the vast majority of his own stack.
We'd never see Klodnicki's cards as Fischer turned up
, and it was the best hand. The pot gives Fischer the chip lead now, approaching a milestone with 395,000 chips. Klodnicki, on the other hand, is down to 106,000.
There was about 40,000 in the pot when we walked up the
flop. It was three-handed, and Dan Kelly led out with the first bet. Jay Nair called, but Eugene Katchalov squeezed in a raise to 50,000. When Kelly folded, Nair moved in for 86,300, and Katchalov made the quick call to put him to the test.
Showdown
Nair:

Katchalov:

Katchalov had flopped the joint, but Nair was drawing live to eight of the nine remaining hearts in the deck.
Turn: 
Nair drills his flush right on fourth street, and now it's Katchalov needing to catch up. He's got one out; the
would make him the winning straight flush.
River: 
It's the right suit but the wrong rank for Katchalov, and he's sent a big double up over to Nair. The latter is up to 210,000 now, dropping the former chip leader down to about 158,000.
Chris Bell raised to 4,500 from the button, and "Miami" John Cernuto three-bet shoved for his 32,000 remaining chips. Bell made the call, and it was pair-versus-pair. The at-risk Cernuto was not on the good end:
Bell:

Cernuto:

The board ran out
, and Bell's overpair holds to earn him the knockout. Miami John is the victim, and with the addition of his chips, Bell is up to 273,000 now.
Frank Vizza was just eliminated from the tournament, but not before his buddy Will "The Thrill" Failla needled him a bit on the way out the door.
Level: 14
Blinds: 800/1,600
Ante: 200
We've reached the end of the level and the beginning of our scheduled dinner break. The tournament is on recess until 7:30 P.M when we'll return for three more levels of poker. We'll see you then.
We wish we'd seen more of this hand develop, but there's action all over the room right now. In any event, there was more than 50,000 in the pot when we joined this hand, the full board showing
in the middle of the felt. Bobby Wisiak made a river bet of 25,000, and Eugene Katchalov flat-called with
. It was good; Wisiak's
was not, and he's fallen down to about 70,000 now.
Katchalov is once again closing in on the chip lead, sitting pretty with about 260,000 in front of him.
