Dohmen Folds an Overpair

Just moments after hitting a big flop, Cyriel Dohmen was forced to fold a big hand on the flop.

With the board reading {6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, Dohmen was faced with an all-in bet of 50,000 chips. After sitting in the tank for quite some time he finally folded two queens.

Whether or not it was a good fold we don't know, but we do know that his stack slipped to 80,000 chips.

Young is Old News

The Hypothesis

Justin Young busted.

The Evidence

Justin Young was seen standing behind his former chair, looking down at no chips.

The Conclusion

It's a trip to the payout desk and a $2,150 payday for Young.

Todd Tyner's Towers

From what we can see Nancy Todd Tyner is leading the pack right now after eliminating an opponent at her table.

The two got all the money in the middle preflop and the Todd Tyner was slightly ahead:

Todd Tyner: {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

The ace on the {A-Spades}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop pushed Todd Tyner ahead and the {3-Hearts} turn and {5-Clubs} river sealed the deal. With that knockout she is now sporting a 170,000 chip stack.

Crossing the Jordan

An unfortunate player got his whole 40,000 stack in preflop with pocket queens, and so we imagine that he was horrified to find himself up against Jordan Morgan's pocket kings.

The board ran out a completely unhelpful {8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, and Mr. Queens became the latest casualty in the Amazon Room.

Morgan, on the other hand, is now one of our big stacks on around 120,000.

Sebok Getting Pushy

Joe Sebok, now officially in short stack territory, has pushed preflop no fewer than three times, but has yet to get a caller. Each time he picked up the blinds and antes, but he's still woefully short on just 14,000.

Cigars All Round for Kellstrom

Dana Kellstrom is up to 60,000 after finding himself in a nice spot with pocket kings against pocket eights preflop. The board ran out a bunch of blanks to propel Kellstrom up the leader board.

Mr. Kellstrom would also like to pass on a proverbial shout out to the Cigar Store, wherever its denizens may be.

Correction

TJ Boytor yesterday
TJ Boytor yesterday

Yesterday we described the amiable Mr. Timothy "TJ" Boytor as a "self-pronounced redneck". He has had a word with us since, and we would like to amend that description.

In Boytor's own cheerful words:

"I ain't a self-pronounced redneck. I'm a self-pronounced proud redneck. It's different."

Boytor's currently on 75,000.
