Happy_Freaked

Pot Limit Omaha

Steve Zolotow raised to 10,500 after which the player to his left, Matt Hawrilenko, opted to raise pot. The total bet was 36,000 and both blinds folded. Zolotow quickly moved all in for right around 60,000 chips, and Hawrilenko snap-called.

The board ran out {K-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {A-Spades} giving Zolotow a full house, but Hawrilenko had quads to take down this pot.

We are down to 24 players and there will be a redraw at this time.

Chris McClung Eliminated in 24th Place ($7,900)

Chad Holloway

Stud Hi/Lo:

We just witnessed a massive pot of Stud Hi/Lo involving four players. There was a lot of action, so do your best to follow along. Calvin Anderson brought it in with the {3-Clubs} and was called by Chris Viox. Mikal Blomlie then completed with the {7-Clubs} and Chris McClung, who had 22,600, raised.

Anderson responded with a three-bet, Viox and Blomlie called, and McClung four-bet all in, which all his opponent called. All three active players checked the turn, and then Blomlie bet fifth after Viox had checked. Anderson responded with a raise, Viox called, and Blomlie came along for the ride.

Sixth street saw Blomlie check, Anderson bet, and Viox raise to 24,000. Blomlie then woke up with a three-bet to 36,000, which both Anderson and Viox called. Finally on seventh, Blomlie led out and action was complete when both his opponents called.

Blomlie: {5-Spades} {7-Spades} {2-Clubs} / {7-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs}
Anderson: (x-x) / {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades} / (x)
Viox: {3-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {K-Clubs} / {8-Hearts} {K-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts}
McClung: {2-Spades} {3-Spades} {8-Spades} / {8-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {A-Clubs}

Upon seeing Blomlie's full house and Viox's low, Anderson mucked. McClung knew his elimination was at hand, but showed his hand per tournament rules. When all was said and done, Viox and Blomlie split the pot, Anderson was knocked down to 90,000, and McClung made his exit in 24th place, good for $7,900.

Holstege Hurts Harman

Happy_Freaked

2-7 Triple Draw

We caught the action right before the last draw, and Harman bet 12,000 from the small blind. Johannes Holstege raised it up to 24,000 from the big blind, and Harman called.

Both players stood pat.

Harman check-called 12,000 and Holstege showed {7-} {6-} {5-} {3-} {2-} . Harman sighed and mucked her cards after which she was knocked down to 122,000 chips. Holstege is still down for the day, but he's on the way up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Johannes Holstege	145,000 -21,400	-21,400
Jennifer Harman	122,000 -82,300	-82,300

Calenzo Stays Alive

Happy_Freaked

2-7 Triple Draw

He was all in after the first draw and still up against two players. Kevin Calenzo drew one card from the hijack, Michael Chow took one from the cutoff and Scott Seiver closed the action out with taking two from the button.

Chow fired out 12,000 and Seiver folded.

Calenzo decided to pat after which Chow took another card. The all in player showed {8-} {7-} {6-} {3-} {2-} , and Chow tabled his {8-} {7-} {5-} {2-} . Chow needed a six, four or three in order to win the pot, but he caught the {5-Clubs} . Calenzo more than doubled up and he's back in the race.

Burt Doubles Through Greenstein

Chad Holloway

2-7 Triple Draw:

Action folded to a short-stacked Tim Burt in the cutoff and he raised, which Barry Greenstein called from the big blind. After the latter drew three and the former two, Greenstein check-raised to get Burt all in. He made the call and then each player drew one.

From there, Greenstein drew one more while Burt stood pat. Greenstein showed {3-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {7-Spades} , but drew a {K-Spades} , which meant Burt's {J-Spades} {9-Spades} {7-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} was good for the double.

Player	Chips	Progress
Tim Burt	65,000 35,000	35,000
Barry Greenstein	44,300 -59,300	-59,300

All Studs!

Happy_Freaked

Level 20

Every table has finished their round of No Limit Hold'em, and will be playing Seven Card Stud for eight hands now. So far the final three tables have been in sync when it comes to the rotation of the games.

When we reach the final 16 there will be another redraw, and the game which will be played gets redrawn as well.
