Greg Raymer, Not Running Good
Losing that pot dropped Raymer down to 64,000 and not long after he was dealt pocket Jacks and lost to a player holding pocket sixes who flopped a set. That dropped Raymer's stack to 44,000.
Daniel Negreanu Busts Cody Slaubaugh
Thank You Dominic!
Moving all-in preflop from the cutoff, the big blind asked the dealer for an exact count of her push. After quickly counting out 23,000, the big blind player contemplated, then eventually tossed his hand into the muck. As the dealer scooped the pot Maridu's way, Maridu flashed a big smile, tossed her hole cards toward the dealer and said, "thank you, Dominic!" - the dealer's name.
After the hand Maridu is up to 25,000 and counting.
