Dan the Man

Immediately after finding the large stack of Cherish Andrews, we found 1995 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Dan Harrington take a seat at the same table.

After Harrington sat down a player opened with a raise to 1,700. It folded to Harrington's blind and he sat motionless for a moment before acting.

"I'm gonna raise," remarked Harrington before he threw out 4,500. His opponent quickly mucked his hand and Harrington made his presence known at the table.

Cajelais Continues

We found Erik Cajelais and one opponent see a flop of {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. Cajelais' opponent bet 1,700 and Cajelais dipped into his massive stack. When he came out, however, it was just with enough chips to call.

Fourth street brought the {6-Hearts} and after about a minute, Cajelais' opponent checked. Cajelais picked up a handful of yellow T1,000 chips and dropped them into the middle of the table. This bet was enough to cover his opponent, and realizing this, his opponent mucked his hand.

Cajelais' aggression is paying off as he is currently sitting as one of if not the biggest stack in the room with 117,000.

Harrington On...Hold Me, I Just Got Two-Outed

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We caught the remnants of a hand that cost 1995 WSOP champion Dan Harrington most of his stack. A player moved all in against Harrington on a {2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop. Harrington called with {A-}{10-} and was way ahead of his opponent's {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}.

Fourth street brought the {4-Hearts} and his opponent was looking for one of the two remaining fives going to the river. Just like that the dealer rapped the tabled and peeled off the {5-Clubs}, absolutely destroying Harrington's stack. After that hand he was left with only 2,200.

Harrington would bust two hands later.
