Giang Scoops a Monster

Chau Giang bet his hand the entire way against Bob Lauria. Lauria was just calling on every street.

On the end, after Lauria called one more time, Giang revealed a seven-high straight, {3-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}. Lauria's board read {Q-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {4-Clubs} and he mucked at the showdown.

Giang is now over 100,000.

Sexton Doubles

Mike Sexton was all in on fourth street and ended up making a pair of sevens and a low of {7-?} {6-?} {4-?} {3-?} {2-?}.

Joe Tehan and Alessio Isaia were also in the hand, but only Isaia made it to the end. His held a pair of threes and a a second-best seven-six-five low.

Sexton is back to 34,000.

A New Big Stack

Sebastian Ruthenberg just took down a monster pot, besting Chris Ferguson and leaving Alex Jacob eliminated in his wake.

Ruthenberg ended the hand with ({5-Hearts} {6-Spades}) {3-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {7-Spades} {A-Hearts} ({Q-Spades}). He got bets in on every street, with Jacob being all in on fifth, and Ferguson calling him all the way to the end. With the big pot added to his stack, he becomes just the second player to touch the 200,000 mark.

Greener Grass for Barry

Barry Greenstein and Kirill Gerasimov raised back and forth on third street. Greenstein then bet each street until the end with Gerasimov calling.

Starting with three low cards, Greenstein was fortunate enough to have the card gods on his side when he caught a seven-high straight on sixth to win both the high and the low.

Gerasimov began with rolled-up eights, but couldn't improve to a full house or make a better low. Greenstein is now at 60,000.

Family Values

Annie Duke just moved to Howard Lederer's table. It was only once upon a time that Duke eliminated Lederer from the WSOP Tournament of Champions and was really upset about it. We'll see if they do similar battle this time around.

Feduniak Cut Down

Bob Feduniak just watched as Barry Greenstein and J.W. Smith chopped him up in a recent pot.

There was a bet in on every street, and two bets on sixth. Greenstein held ({3-Clubs} {6-Hearts}) {5-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {2-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} ({J-Diamonds}), making him the winning six-five low. Smith had ({8-Diamonds} {2-Hearts}) {6-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {8-Spades} ({5-Spades}), and his trip eights were good enough for the high side. Feduniak's up cards were {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {Q-Hearts}, but he failed to catch either half of the pot, and he takes a tumble down the leader board.

Sung Finally Loses One

Steve Sung has been on one hell of a roll lately. According to Mike Matusow, "The kid's been making a flush or full house on every hand that I've been here." It shows with his chip stack swelling to over 300,000.

Marcel Luske is seated right to Sung and his mountain of chips. On this last hand, Marcel was able to make trip deuces against Sung and scoop a big pot. This marked the first hand that we have seen Sung lose in a while.
