After a very bizarre last hand, Ben Zamani has advanced to Day 2.
We went to the table after the hand had played out because the player he defeated was shouting at the dealer, tournament directors and anyone who would listen.
"I said 'do you call?'" he kept repeating. "Not 'I call.'"
The board was and on the river the player in question put out a bet. Zamani moved all in, pushing a large stack out in front of him and the player in question said something with "call" in it turing over for just queen high.
Zamani opened for two pair and won the hand and the table.
The dealer claims that he heard the word "call" and a tournament director explained to the player that once he opened his hand after Zamani moved in, his chips were committed.
The player in question was baffled, but the ruling is official and cannot be reversed.
Adam "Roothlus" Levy started Level 5 with just ten big blinds (4,000 chips). He found wired queens early in the level, but when he shoved an opponent looked him up with two kings.
The board brought a queen.
Now Roothlus has a massive chip lead heads up after rivering two pair against his opponent. The board read when Levy moved all in and was called. Levy opened and his opponent mucked.
Tony "Bond18" Dunst had a massive chip lead entering heads up play, but his opponent has doubled twice.
The last hand Dunst had his opponent all in for his tournament life and was ahead with . His opponent had and connected with the flop, Dunst didn't improve on the turn () or the river () and his opponent doubled to about 10,000 chips.
Dunst is still comfortably ahead with 35,000 chips.
