Dr. Bluff Shove

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

When we reached his table, David "Doc" Sands was heads up with an opponent, and the board read {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Sands' opponent led out for 2,500, and Sands moved all in for 5,875 total. His opponent tanked for a very long time, taking chips off his stack and slamming them back on top of it before finally mucking his hand.

Sands tabled {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} for king-high, and raked in the pot.

Little's Boat Trumps Nut Flush

We caught up with the action on a completed board reading {3-Spades}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Jonathan Little had a 7,450 bet in front of him and his opponent was tanking hard. He eventually tossed in a reluctant call and Little tabled {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a rivered full-house. Little's opponent dejectedly revealed {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} for the flopped nut flush and tossed his hand away.

Little is sitting on a very healthy stack of 39,000 following the hand.

Some Salmon and Chips

Liv Boeree has been eliminated from the tournament, but she hasn't left her seat on Table 18. Instead, Boeree has chosen to sit and enjoy her lunch - a very tasty-looking salmon dish.

A floor person recently walked by to grab the seat card, and looked at her strangely.

"It's ok," tablemate Dan O'Brien told the man. "She's hobbled, and she's eating lunch. She's good company."

Boeree, who suffered an injury at the infamous Vanessa Rousso party, is still relaxing as of this post, but once a new player arrives, she'll have to leave.

Here are some counts:
