Baker On the Rise

Just before break, David "Bakes" Baker had raised to 4,800 when a player went all in for 44,000 more. Baker made the call and we were off to the flop.

Baker: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Baker pulled ahead on the flop when it fell {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{j-Spades} and stayed ahead with the {7-Diamonds} on the turn and the {4-Hearts} on the river.

Down to 15 tables

We're almost through Level 14 and we're down to 15 tables and 135 players. We're going to play through another four levels before coming back tomorrow. Stay tuned to see how many players are left at that point. Some huge stacks are emerging as smaller-stacked players are finding themselves having to gamble.

Hamby vs Deeb

Jared Hamby raised to 4,900 from the cutoff and was reraised to 12,700 by Shaun Deeb. Hamby made the call and the two players saw a flop of {K-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.

Both players checked to the turn, which was the {9-Spades}. Hamby bet 13,500 and Deeb called. Once again, both players checked when the {J-Hearts} hit the river.

Hamby turned over {J-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for a rivered pair, which caused Deeb to muck. Hamby was up to 105,300 after the hand.

Guagenti Off to the Races

Nick Guagenti called an opponent's all in with {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. His opponent held {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and the two were off to the races.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, keeping Guagenti in the lead. The {2-Hearts} changed nothing and Guagenti needed to dodge both an ace and queen on the river.

The dealer burned and flipped over the {10-Clubs}, giving Guagenti the pot and bringing his stack to 220,000.

Failla Knocks One Out

Wil Failla was in early position when he raised to 4,500. The player on the button went all in for 21,000 and Failla tanked for a while before calling. Failla showed {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and was ahead of his opponent's {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. The board didn't change a thing, and Failla is up to 130,000.
