Field Update

With dinner break just about 15 minutes away, well over half the field has already dropped - 1080 players remain with an average stack of 11,600.

Fluss Hits a Royal Flush

After a flop of {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} Marc Fluss, is all in against two other opponents.

Opponent A: {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} - flush
Opponent B: {K-?}{Q-?} - top two pair
Fluss: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} - a flopped Royal flush!

To add to this prefect set up hand, the player with top two pair also happened to fill up on a later street.

Marc Fluss triples up with his royal flush and is now at 20,000.

Chip and a Chair

Just a few minutes ago Scott Richey was down to his last three green chips; only 75.

The next hand he was all in blind with {9-?} {3-?} against two opponents. One had pocket aces, the other had pocket kings.

He cracked both, wining the small main pot, tripling up.

Fast forward another few hands and Richey is somehow on an amazing comeback with 8,000.

Non "FatalError"

After a flop of {10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs}, Jonathan Aguiar bet 800 and is called by his lone opponent in the hijack.

This brings the {K-Clubs} on the turn and both players check.

The river is the {3-Clubs} and Aguiar checks again. His opponent makes a relatively small bet of 825. Aguiar looks like he wants to make a hero call, but instead decides to fold to the small bet.

Good non-call on Aguiar's part - his opponent shows pocket kings for top full house.

Jonathan Aguiar 12,400

Shaun Deeb Takes Small Hit

Shaun Deeb opens the pot for a raise to 450 from the hijack and receives a call from both of the blinds.

The flop comes {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and all three players check.

The turn is the {8-Clubs}. The small blind checks, the big blind bet 1,000 and Deeb makes the call. The small blind gets out of the way.

The river brings the {A-Spades}. The big blind bets 2,000 and after thinking for few moments, Deeb makes the call.

His opponent shows {Q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for a ten-high straight and Deeb immediately mucks his hand.

Despite taking a small hit, Shaun Deeb is still sitting on a healthy stack of 24,000
