Last Break of the Night

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

The players have plowed through 15 levels of play, and they are on their last break of the night. When they return, they will play two 1-hour levels, before bagging their chips up for the night.

Hahn Back Towards the Top

Arthur Hahn raised it up in middle position, and the button raised all in for 30,000. Hahn tanked for about two minutes, before saying "I'm all in", which was a call.

Hahn: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The flop was safe for Hahn, coming down {5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. The turn spiced things up, coming the {j-Diamonds}. Hahn now had to dodge an ace, king, or diamond, and he was able to do that, as the river brought the {q-Hearts}.

Hahn collected the bounty, and after that hand, he is back up to 195,000.

Le Lands The Chip Lead

Allan Le must have read that someone overtook him as the chip leader, because he is playing like there is a fire under him. After shoving earlier on a four high flop with queen high, Le was back at his aggressive ways shortly after.

We saw Le and one other player take a flop of {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. With about 11,000 in the middle, Le's opponent fired out 9,200. Le only took a few moments to put in a raise to 24,400, and his opponent tanked for about 30 seconds before releasing his hand.

Le's table mates tried to get him to show his hand, and while Le looked tempted, he stuck it face down into the muck. After that pot, Lee is flirting with 200,000.

Kuether Continues To Crush

Joseph Kuether has steadily been building his stack up in the latter half of the day, and he is starting to look like a real threat here tonight. We just caught him in a pot that pushed him over the 100k mark.

There was already 9,000 in the pot when the flop came down {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. Kuether's lone opponent bet out 7,100, but Kuether refused to back down, raising to 17,500. His opponent tanked for about a minute before showing the {10-Spades} and mucking his hand.

After that pot, Kuether is now sitting on 105,000.
