Kenny Nguyen
Kenny Nguyen

WSOP-C Chester Main Event Champion Kenny Nguyen passed our media booth to tell us that he was eliminated. His flopped two pair ran into an opponent's set on the flop, bringing his tournament to an end.

Three Eighty-Two

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

The number on the board has been frozen at 382 players for a good while now, and we'll venture to guess that's within one or two of the official number. We'll have the exact count and the prize pool as soon as it's available to us.

Level: 5

Blinds: 100/200

Scott Returns, Departs

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante
Robert Scott
Robert Scott

Robert Scott did make it back to the table for a few hands, but his chips have run out. With a limp and a raise in front of him, Scott shoved his last 1,025 into the middle. The player next door reraised, successfully isolating the all-in player and putting Scott heads up for his tournament life.

Showdown
Scott: {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Opponent: {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}

The board ran {4-Spades} {6-Spades} {2-Spades} {5-Spades} {7-Diamonds}, and Scott could not catch up to stay alive. He's gone for now, but you'll see him again in Las Vegas in a few weeks. By virtue of his performance at Harrah's Chester last week, Scott earned the title of Casino Champion for that stop and his golden ticket into the $1 million WSOP-C National Championship freeroll.

Scott Surrenders?

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

After stumbling in that big pot at the end of Level 3, Robert Scott ducked away from the table to tell his story to his friends scattered around the room. Returning from break, Scott's chair is empty, and his ~1,300 remaining chips aren't going to last long.

Scott Stumbles

Robert Scott had built his stack up to about 30,000 during level three, but a costly mistake has dented his stack severely.

On a {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} board with about 22,000 in the pot, Robert Scott put in a re-raise all in against Joshua Evans. Evans announced, "count," motioning to the dealer to count out what Scott's re-raise amount what for. Scott, however, thought Evans announced, "call," and tabled {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}.

The decision was on Evans, knowing exactly what he was up against. After about a minute, he called for his tournament life and tabled {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}, holding up through the {8-Hearts} river to win the huge pot just as Level 3 came to an end.
