Silver Section Update: Justin Schwartz & Mario Puccini Out

Cary Katz during his One Drop excursion
Cary Katz during his One Drop excursion

Justin Schwartz has been eliminated from Table Twenty-One and now residing in his former seat is Cary Katz. As incredulous as it seems, only days ago Katz was paying $1 million to take his seat in Event #55: $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop and today he is paying $1,000. I guess that tells you a lot about the CEO of College Loan Corporation, the man has a lot of money and he loves his poker. Katz is currently sat on 3,400.

Mario Puccini has also been eliminated from the Silver Section and JJ Liu is another player who just put it all on the line in the strangest of pots. Liu raised to 300 in the cutoff (off a stack of 1,800) and the small blind called. The flop was {Q-Clubs} {8-Spades} {3-Diamonds} and the small blind check-raised to 950 once Liu had made a standard c-bet. Liu moved all-in for 1,500 total and her opponent refused to put the additional 550 in the pot and folded his hand.

Every player in the tournament is now seated in the Brasilia Room. A couple of tables have broken at the bottom of the Red Section.

Sorel Mizzi Loves Alpha Brain

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

You may have heard about Alpha Brain, or seen the Onnit booth at the WSOP. Well, Alpha Brain is designed to improve focus, and competitive thinking; a perfect combination for poker.

Sorel Mizzi, who's part of the Onnit Honor Roll is a firm believer, and said "within days of taking Alpha Brain® I felt a noticeable improvement in my conversational flow, focus at the table and my ability to remember dreams. I was sold!"
