We caught up with Rincon Main Event Final Tablist David Randall on the turn with the board reading . Randall fired out 2,700, and his lone opponent made the call. The river was the , and Randall continued to fire, this time for 5,050.
His opponent made the call, and Randall said "good call" and showed . His opponent showed for a pair of eights, and it was good enough to take the pot. After that hand, Randall was knocked down to 9,000, though we saw that he has since worked it back up to 19,000.
Former Circuit Champion Doug Lee has also joined us in the Pavillion Room of the Bicycle Casino.
We caught up with Lee playing a hand against a middle position opponent. With several hundred chips in the pot, Lee checked to his opponent who bet 600 on the pot. Lee folded and his opponent took the pot.
After the hand Lee looked towards us and jokingly said, "Make sure you let them know I shoved all in on that one."
Lee still has a healthy stack with around 19000 chips.
David Tuchman must know karate, because he's been doing some chopping.
We caught up to Tuchman in a pot with a player on the button. With the board reading Tuchman bet out 450 and was snap called by the player on the button.
The turn came the and this time Tuchman bet out 725. He was quickly called once again.
The river fell the and this time Tuchman pulled out the big guns with a bet of 2,100. Again, the player on the button snap called and turned up for a rivered straight. But it was only good enough for a chop because Tuchman turned up for a rivered straight as well.
The two players seem to be building some repertoire between them because after the hand the woman on the button said, "Who got lucky this time?"
We'll keep an eye out for any more of Tuchman's karate moves.
Matt Affleck is in a bit of trouble after losing a recent hand at his table and falling below 15000 chips.
Preflop, Affleck raised to 300 under the gun and was called by three players. The flop fell and action checked to Affleck, who bet 800. Affleck was only called by the big blind and they both saw the turn.
The small blind checked and Affleck took the opportunity to bet 2,000. The player in the big blind called and they went to the river.
Action went check, check on the river and the big blind showed for a turned straight. Affleck mucked his cards and fell to 14,000 in chips.
Some of the players who are busting out of flight 1a are now buying into flight 1b. Among those buying back is Ben Yu who is looking for a fresh start.
Along side the reentrants are some fresh faces as well coming in late. Among the new faces are actor James Woods, David Tran, Phi Nguyen, John "The Razor" Phan, and recent WSOPC ring winner Michael Taylor.
