Back We Go

Cards are back in the air.

The plan is to play the next two levels out and then call it a night, returning tomorrow with however many players we have left. We have 32 players left right now, so we're guessing that we won't make it as far as a final table tonight.

Level: 17

Blinds: /

Ante:

Spare the Rodman, Spoil Seagle's Dominance

Blair Rodman: {a-}{a-}{2-} / {4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Topias Wahlbeck: (XX) / {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Dennis Seagle: {2-}{5-}(X) / {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}

We arrived at the table to witness Blair Rodman announcing a raise to 24,000 on sixth street; this constituted a three-bet. Topias Wahlbeck thought about it for a while but folded. Dennis Seagle made the call.

Rodman, with just 7,000 behind, checked on seventh street and Seagle opted to check behind. When they turned the cards over neither of them could make a low. Seagle had made two pair, deuces and fives, but Rodman made two pair, aces and queens, and scooped the pot.

Rodman roughly doubled to 110,000. Seagle dropped to 83,000.

Topsy-Turvy

Vincent Burgio, who has a record as long as Mr. Tickle's arms, decided to make his move on third street for his final few chips. Topias Wahlbeck dwelt, but eventually made the call.

"I have nothing," announced Burgio. "So do I," came the reply.

Somehow, Burgio had his man dominated, but despite their hole cards, it was bizarrely Burgio who took the high, and Wahlbeck the low.

Vince Burgio: {8-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}/{J-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {3-Clubs} {2-Clubs}/{A-Clubs}
Topias Wahlbeck: {3-Diamonds} {J-Spades}/{8-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}/{K-Clubs}

Wahlbeck - 55,000
Burgio - 15,000

Inclement Weather

Regis Burlot: {j-}{10-}(X) / {4-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Scott Clements: (mucked) / {8-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Debbie Hickok: {2-}{6-}{7-} / {4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Scott Clements raised all in for his last 4,800 on sixth street and both Debbie Hickok and original bettor Regis Burlot made the call. Kickok checked on seventh and then insta-called Burlot's bet.

What Clements got his last chips in with, we will never know. Burlot turned over two pair, jacks and tens, for the high, and Hickok turned over an eight low. Clements' cards went into the muck, and Clements himself went out the door.

Gleason Busts as Jett Flies High

Vince Burgio: (XX) / {5-Hearts}{10-Hearts} - fold
Eddie Gleason: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} / {9-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Karina Jett: {3-Spades}{a-Spades}{k-Clubs} - the king on seventh / {6-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Hearts}

We're not sure who was the bettor on fourth street but either way Vince Burgio folded. Karina Jett and Eddie Gleason proceeded to fifth, where Jett bet out and Gleason called.

"Well I'm gonna get it all in anyways so I might as well bet into you," said Gleason as he bet out on sixth street and Jett raised. Duly, the chips went in, and they revealed their hands, Jett the made flush with a seven low, and Gleason trip nines.

Seventh street changed nothing for Jett and failed to bring in a full house for Gleason. "Good luck," he told the table, and swiftly took his leave.

Jett's stack increased to over 120,000.
