Sengphet Falls

We're not sure of the details, but we can confirm that La Sengphet, last year's National Championship fourth-place finisher, has been eliminated from the WSOP-Circuit Hammond Main Event. Sengphet had some luck last night as she qualified for today's event in a satellite, but she never seemed to get much going in the early levels.

Jaka Drops 6K Without a Flop

A woman who was in the under-the-gun position limped before Faraz Jaka raised to 475 from middle position. The player on the button called, as did Jake Toole in the small blind, and then the UTG woman woke up with a three-bet to 2,500. Jaka thought long and hard before announcing a raise and putting in 6,000, which cleared out the button and Tool, but the woman instantly moved all in for 26,500.

Jaka, who had 11,800 behind, folded just as quickly.

Jaka Makes Some Back

Faraz Jaka limped from under the gun and Jake Toole raised to 750 from late position. Jaka called and went heads up to the flop of {2-Spades} {K-Spades} {7-Diamonds}. Both players checked and the {4-Diamonds} came on the turn. Jaka check-called 1,075 and the river came {3-Spades}. Jaka checked, Toole bet 2,400 and Jaka check-raised to 6,000.

Toole sat for a short while shuffling his chips before kicking his cards back to the dealer.

A Small One for Verrett

Chad Holloway

With 5,600 in the pot and a board reading {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts}, an early-position player checked to Madison, Wisconsin native Steve Verrett, who happily bet 3,200. His opponent thought for a solid minute before flicking his cards to the muck, allowing Verrett, affectionately known as "Low Chicago", so take down the pot without further resistance. Verrett is up to 23,500.
