Beverly Cheney is up to 40k.

Hamid Izadi opened for 800 in late position, the small blind called and Beverly Cheney called from the big blind. The flop came {7-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {5-Clubs}, the small blind checked, Cheney bet 450 and Izadi raised to 1,450. The small blind called, as did Cheney. The turn came {Q-Diamonds}, the small blind checked, Cheney bet 2,250 and got two calls. The river came {10-Spades}, the small blind checked, Cheney bet 3,000 and Izadi raised to 8,700.

Tryba Loses a Little

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Four players including Chris Tryba saw a flop of {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. One player led out for 1,725 and another got out of the way.

"Seems reasonable," Tryba exclaimed as he tossed in a call. The remaining player folded leaving Tryba and his opponent heads up going to the turn. Fourth street came {9-Diamonds} and Tryba's opponent fired out 3,025. Tryba quietly mucked his hand, dropping down to about 30,000 in chips.

Wiese Hits The Rail

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

We missed the details of Frank Wiese's bust hand, but caught up with him afterward to learn that he moved his last 6,000 in with {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} on a {8-}{10-}{Q-}{X-} board that had two diamonds. The river was an {A-} and his opponent paired his ace and sent Wiese to the rail.

And the Crowd Goes Wild

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

A rupture of applause went through the poker room to compliment the explosion of cheers heard outside on the casino floor. A strong contingent of LSU fans flooded all the bars and restaurants in the casino. Plenty of "L-S-U!" chants were heard.

It's Official, Bigger Field than Last Year

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

There were 218 entrants for Day 1a and 111 entrants for Day 1b for a total of 329 total entrants. Which surpassed the 2010 mark of 270 players.

There could be a slight fluctuation with those numbers with people able to register before the start of play on Day 2.

Long Time for a Chopped Pot

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

J.C. Bryant opened for 2,700 in late position and Robert "E-Dolo" Scott shoved on him from the small blind. Bryant went deep into the tank, with Scott having him covered. Bryant tanked for a few minutes.

"Just fold already," Scott said. "If you had a good enough hand to call with you would have done it by now. The blinds are still low - it's your tournament life, not mine."

With that Bryant called and tabled {A-Clubs} {K-Spades} and Scott turned over {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}.

The board ran {9-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} and the two chopped the pot.
