Event 4 - $1,000 No Limit Hold'em

Day 2 Completed

Last Five Hands

Players are winding down and playing the last five hands.

Phong Huynh has doubled up a short stack after calling an all-in on a {2-?} {3-?} {5-?} board with {A-?} {9-?} against {A-?} {A-?} and failing to improve. Huynh is down to about 250,000.

Pohl Dances Off the Stage

Jason Pohl raised to 33,000 in midposition and Eric Chhor called from the big blind. Both players checked the {Q-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {5-Spades} flop before Chhor check-raised a 55,000 bet to 165,000 on the {9-Spades} turn. Pohl pushed all-in and was snap-called by Chhor's {J-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}. Pohl was only able to split with {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs}. The river was the ultimate blank, the {2-Clubs}, and Chhor is now one of the chip leaders.

Seven Figures

We have our first player who has managed to turn his 3,000 starting stack in to over a million in less than two day's play. Danny Fuhs just won a race with {A-?} {K-?} versus an opponent's {6-?} {6-?} when a {10-Spades} {10-Clubs} {A-Spades} {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} fell down.

He's sitting on a cool 1,100,000 now.

In the Genes

Eric Mizrachi must've shared some of those grinding genes of his brother as he's been struggling with a short stack all day. He has just managed to double up to 125,000, which will give him a little breathing room.

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

White's Still Alright

Adam White made it 25,000 to go before a player in the small blind three bet all in for 123,000. White called with {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts} and was ahead of the SB's {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades}.

The board came {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {6-Spades}. White's still in great shape with 535,000.

Tran-gedy

JC Tran has just been knocked out of the tournament. He was all-in with {A-?} {10-?} against {Q-Spades} {J-Hearts}, but lost out on the river of a {K-?} X {8-?} {2-?} {Q-?} board.

John Myung has also been knocked out, all-in on the turn of a {10-?} {9-?} {9-?} {J-?} with {Q-Hearts} {8-Hearts}, but ran into {K-?} {Q-?}.
