On a flop of 
, Jason Mercier led out with a bet of 300. He was heads up, and his lone opponent quickly made the call to see the 
fall on fourth street. Mercier fired another 725 chips there, and 1,650 on the 
river, with his opponent calling the whole way.
Mercier showed up 
, and his top pair was good as his opponent's cards went sliding muckward. That early pot moves Mercier up to about 18,000.
There were about 7,000 chips in the middle of the table when we walked up to a flop of 
. First to speak was Alexia Portal, and she put out a bet of 5,000 chips. Her opponent quickly moved all in, and Portal called all in for the ~3,000 she had behind.
Showdown
Portal: 
Opponent: 
Portal was looking to fade the flush draw to double up, and the turn and river came a friendly 
and 
to keep her around with aces up. She's moved her stack to about 23,000 after shipping that double.
We heard a call for "Floor!" from across the far side of the room, so we scurried over to see what the deal was. When we approached, there was a board of 
on the table, and Jon "apestyles" van Fleet was the subject of the controversy.
An opponent in Seat 10 had bet 3,000, and from what we can gether, van Fleet announced, "Call," but he tossed in 7,000 total chips in the form of one T5,000 chip and two T1,000 chips. This sparked a bit of a debate, and we needed some arbitration from the floor man. He ruled, "I believe his intention was to call. But since he tossed in 7,000, I'm going to rule it as a raise."
Upon hearing the decision, Seat 10 said, "This is so freakin' sad that you're going to win the hand on that." And with that, he promptly folded.
van Fleet - 20,000
Level: 2
Blinds: 50/100
Ante: 0
Barry Shulman found all of his chips in the middle, but he survived as Adam Levy laid his hand down. The board read 
when Levy fired out 3,000. Schulman moved all in over the top as he splashed his stacks into the middle.
Levy deliberated and wasn't too happy about folding, as he claimed to have folded an ace.
Shulman moves up to 20,000 with Levy slipping to about the same amount.
With about 2,000 in the pot on the turn with the board reading 
, Isaac Baron was faced with a 1,600-chip decision from an unknown opponent.
Baron made the call and the 
hit the river. The bet was 3,100 and Baron again paid to see. His opponent revealed 
for a rivered pair of kings which was good as Baron mucked. He slips to 12,400 chips.
How would you feel about a few chip counts? Yeah, you'd like it, wouldn't you? Hundreds more to come.
