Marcel Luske, a member of PokerStars Team Netherlands, tried his best to pick up a pot with air, but sometimes players just refuse to fold. His opponent bet at an 

flop, and Luske called. When his opponent checked the
on the turn, the Flying Dutchman bet. The player called, then checked again when the
peeled off on the river. Luske took the invitation to bet one more time, but when his opponent called, all he could show was 
. The other guy's 
could beat queen-high, and Luske sank back to starting stack. But stay tuned. The pro will probably use the shown bluff to his advantage in another hand.
2010 World Series of Poker
Eric "EFro" Froehlich was down to his last 300 chips when he moved them in blind preflop. There were a series of raises and calls from three players including Gavin Griffin and Svetlana Gromenkova.
Gromenkova was checked to in position on every street, and she bet every street.
In the end the board read 



and Gromenkova tabled 
for a pair aces.
EFro slowly sweated his cards finally and the first was an ace we presume because his face lit up. After sweating the second hard he quickly turned over 
for a worse ace, and exited the tournament area.
Jimmy "Gobboboy" Fricke is also MIA and we presume he's hit the rail as well.
Justin Bonomo is holding it down for the Shout Box Parents though, he's sitting with about 14,000 chips.
And it's not because Teddy "Iceman" Monroe is in the building.
There is a serious vent problem in the back right corner of the White Section of the Pavilion Room. It's so bad that some players have blankets to go along with their hoodies, jackets, gloves, scarves and long johns.
OK, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration...but people really do have blankets.
Hopefully the problem can be resolved and the temperature in the room can push back above 32° Fahrenheit.
Phil Ivey did not play a single hand today and has been eliminated from Event #18.
His stack was alone the entire day and just blinded out in Level 6.
GG Phil.
Level 6 is over and that mean's it's supper time.
We'll be back in 90 minutes!
Players are back in their seats and have been ready to go for a few minutes now. We're just waiting on the color up of the T25 chips, and then it will be time for Level 7.
Level: 7
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 0
We missed the hand unfortunately, but Gavin Griffin just grabbed his backpack and headed towards the door signifying that he is busto.
A player raised from the cutoff, and Daniel Negreanu called on the button. They went heads up to a 

flop, and Negreanu called a bet. After the
put four diamonds on the board, Negreanu called all in for his last 500 and tabled 
. His king-high flush was more than god against his opponent, who was drawing dead with 
. The
on the river gave both players a flush, but Negreanu's was better and good enough to double him up.
Here's how the stacks look halfway into the first level after dinner:
