Awad Rebuilds

Omaha 8/b

Hani Awad has been by far the momst active player since we came back from dinner. He was in the blinds when Ken Lennaard opened with a lateposition raise. Only Awad called.

Awad led into Lennaard on a flop of {8-Clubs} {q-Spades} {k-Hearts}. Lennaard called. Both players checked the {7-Diamonds} turn and Awad also checked the {8-Spades} river. He was faced with a decision when Lennaard bet the river, but called with what was the best hand -- {k-} {9-} {6-} {4-}, for two pair, kings and eights.

Awad Finds Another Pot

Omaha 8/b

The tabled folded around to the blinds where Hani Awad called from the small and Andrew Revesz knocked the table for a free flop in the big.

It came {J-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {A-Spades}, and Awad check-raised a bet. Revesz matched the extra 15,000, and that brought them to the {10-Hearts} turn. Revezs called 30,000 there, and another big bet on the {3-Spades} river.

Awad: {2-Spades} {4-Hearts} {5-Spades} {J-Spades}

Revesz mucked his cards, and Awad has finally started scooping up some chips to push himself back in the right direction. He's up close to 400,000 again.

Barbieri: (X) (X) / 3-4-K-7 / (X)
Leary: (X) (X) / 2-K-6-3 / (X)

Andrew Revesz limped into the pot showing a 9 door card before Al Barbieri completed. Action moved to Dustin Leary, who raised his 2. Everyone folded back to Barbieri, who was the only caller. Barbieri had the lead on fourth and fifth streets and bet each time. Leary called both bets, then bet the lead himself on sixth street. Barbieri raised and was called.

Both players checked the river. Barbieri turned up an ace and a deuce in the hole for a 7-4 low. That was the winner.

Leary: (X) (X) / {9-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}

Dustin Leary is second in chips right now and is continuing to add to his stack. He completed third street and was called by Robert Mizrachi. Leary bet again on fourth street, then called after Mizrachi raised.

Mizrachi caught the lead on fifth street but checked it over to Leary. Leary took the bait and bet. Mizrachi called.

On sixth street Leary made open nines n bet again. Mizrachi thought about his decision for approximately 30 seconds before folding.

Faces in the Crowd

Michael "the Grinder" Mizrachi is here, standing on the rail, sweating brother Robert. Right next to him are James "MiG.com" Mackey and Grant Hinkle, here to cheer on their good friend Blake Cahail.

They're not the only poker personalities here, however. David Levi is sitting on the first step of seating, and Alexander Kravchenko has been in and out all day to check on countryman Konstantin Puchkov.

For a fixed-limit final table, this event has attracted a sizable rail.

Big Stacks Go to War

Stud 8/b

Leary: (X) (X) / {2-Hearts} {8-Spades} {8-Hearts} {j-Clubs} / (X)
Barbieri: (X) (X) / {5-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {k-Diamonds} / (X)

Dustin Leary caught the bring-in, but that's not always terrible in Stud Hi/Lo. He called after Al Barbieri completed.

Barbieri bet every street from there on out, even the streets where Leary had the lead. Leary called all the way. At showdown, Barbieri's trip treys were bested by Leary's full house. Leary scooped the whole pot on one of the last hands of Stud Hi/Lo.
