It was folded around to Dan Fleyshman who raised to 900 on the button. Rob Hollink called from the big blind and then check-called an 1,125 bet from Fleyshman on the flop. Both players checked the turn and Hollink led for 3,100 on the river. Fleyshman made the call and was shown the of Hollink which was good to take down the pot.
It folded around to Rolf Slotboom on the button, who carefully checked his cards. Carefully so as not to tip over the tall column of chips he has sitting before him, topped by a number of black chips, a few yellows, a couple of oranges, and a precariously balanced box of wintergreen-flavored Tic Tacs.
The toboggan-wearing Dutch player looked down from underneath his mirrored visor glasses, looked at his cards, and raised to 1,325.
It folded to the short-stacked player in the big blind. "Please let me have something," he said, noting with distress his sub-5,000 chip stack. "Now would be the time." He looked at his cards, exhaled, and folded face up -- . Slotboom showed one card -- the -- and took the small pot, adding the chips to his tower. Slotboom has about 26,000 now.
On the next hand there was a raise and reraise and it folded back to Mr. Short Stack.
Three players had built a pot of about 7,000 before the arrival of the flop. The small blind checked, Derek Chisholm fired 4,500 from early position, then the player to his left reraised to 11,000.
The small blind folded, and Chisholm thought for a moment before declaring he was all in. His opponent rechecked his cards, then wordlessly set them forward, conceding the pot.
It looked like Tatjana Pasalic limped in late position and the big blind checked his option as the two saw a flop come down. The big blind checked to Pasalic who was standing and asked, “Why are you laughing at me?” to the big blind before she checked as well.
Both players checked the turn too and when the fell down on the river, the big blind checked one last time. Pasalic was done with checking now and threw out an orange T5,000 chip but it sounded like she announced 2,000.
Whatever the amount was, it was good enough to get the big blind to fold as Pasalic clapped her hands and said, “Yay!” The player to her right told us, “Make sure you write that down”, so here you go Sir.
Right before dinner break, Faraz Jaka was up to around 65,000 and well above average. When we stopped by his table about five minutes ago, he had clearly fallen a bit and had just scooped a pot that put him back in the 30,000 range. But just now when we came back, he had his bag in his hand and was leaving his table.
We missed the hand but right afterward he tweeted "Busted UTG raise1k I 3bet to 2.7k w/ AA he calls w/ k10o flop 689 he check calls, turn K I bet 7k he raises 15k I shove 14k more he calls, river K Bye"
A tough beat for Jaka who is known for being especially loose and aggressive with his play. Jaka had a tough WSOP with only one cash in the form of a 28th place finish in the $5,000 Six-Handed No-Limit Hold'em. Either way, his exciting play and colorful outfits will be missed from the WSOP as we wrap up with the Main Event

Nachman Berlin, runner-up to Andre Akkari in Event No. 43 ($1,500 NLHE), had built up his starting stack early on today but recently has found himself running in place a bit.
Just now Berlin watched an early position player raise to 1,000, then Berlin reraised to 3,800, forcing folds all around, including from the original raiser.
On the next hand, Berlin was playing the aggressor again, opening with a raise to 1,025 from the hijack seat. The player on the button reraised to 2,600, the blinds folded, and Berlin called.
The flop came and Berlin checked. His opponent bet 2,500, and Berlin quickly called. The turn brought the and another check from Berlin. This time his opponent fired 6,000, and Berlin instantly tossed his cards to the dealer.
Berlin finds himself right about at 30,000 as we approach the halfway point of Level 5.
Mel Judah raised to 1,000 in middle position and the button shoved for 2,775 total. Judah called as the players turned up their hands.
