Caruso Takes From Nunez

Level 9 : 400/800, 800 ante

Christopher Caruso raised to 2,300 under the gun and Jimmy Nunez called from the big blind.

The turn fell the {k-Diamonds} and both players opted to check it to the {q-Spades} river. Nunez checked once more but Caruso threw in a bet of 3,000. Nunez shook his head, then threw in chips to call. Caruso tabled {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for kings and queens and Nunez showed {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for kings and jacks before throwing his hand in the muck.

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team is at the Horseshoe Baltimore to live report both the $1,700 Main Event and $3,250 High Roller; however, that is just one of more than a dozen gold ring events that have taken place over the past week. As such, we thought we’d profile some of the preliminary tournaments and those who struck it big.

In the $135 buy-in Ladies Event, 65-year-old retired nurse Dorothy Adams topped a 79-entry field to claim a gold ring and the $2,444 first-place prize.

Both she and her husband will continue looking for gold as they plan to travel to the upcoming Cherokee stop. In the past they’ve competed at WSOPC stops in Las Vegas and New Orleans.
