Lisandro Building, Kassin Okay, Riesenberg Out

Omaha-8

Charles Kassin has just played out a couple of hands to see his stack sway up and down. We watched the first hand play out like this.

Jeff Lisandro was under the gun when he opened up the pot with a raise. Only Kassin would make a call a couple of spots to his left. The {3-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop would see Lisandro fire out a bet and Kassin called. Lisandro then bet the {k-Hearts} turn and Kassin folded. Lisandro then said, "i had a big hand," as he tabled {q-Spades}{2-Spades}{a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, holding two flush draws.

A couple of hands later we noticed that Kassin was raking in the remainder of Jason Riesenberg's chips to see his stack build back up.

Smith, Berumen Bow Out

Stud-8

Mike Krescanko{x-}{x-} / {10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Spades} / {x-}
Raymond Davis{x-}{x-} / {3-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} (FOLDED)
Lori Berumen{x-}{x-} / {3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{9-Clubs} / {x-}

Davis completed, Berumen called, Krescanko raised, and both Davis and Berumen called.

On fourth street, the action checked to Krescanko, who bet. Davis and Berumen both called. On fifth, the action checked to Krescanko who bet again, and only Berumen called.

Krescanko made a pair of kings on sixth, and led out. Berumen shrugged, and decided that that pot was too big to fold. She called, and then called all in blind on seventh. Krescanko turned over {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for aces up, and Berumen showed {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for just a pair of aces.

She was eliminated, while Krescanko crossed the 100K mark.

On an adjacent table, Mallory Smith was busted as well.

Tam Hanged

Tam Hang managed to double during a hand of Stud Eight-or-Better hand just a short while ago. He made a full house aces over tens against Anthony Bellino and raked in the double. He was still short after that hand though and was all-in just a few hands later. He didn't manage to catch the right cards and was eliminated.

Bari Doubles

Stud-8

Allen Bari{x-}{x-} / {3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades} / {x-}
Timothy Frazin{x-}{x-} / {q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades} / {x-}

Bari was all in on third street, and opened up {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Frazin was ahead with {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for split queens, but didn't improve through sixth street. Frazin turned over the {8-Clubs} on seventh, which also didn't improve his hand, and Bari, who made a pair of fives on sixth, had plenty of outs to scoop.

Bari's downcard was the {a-Spades} for aces up, and he indeed scooped the pot to double to 32,000.
