Early into the last level of the night and the "Godfather of Poker", Doyle Brunson is still kicking away with just shy of the starting stack. We recently caught Brunson in a hand against one opponent, with our reporter arriving to the table with a already out on the felt. It was Brunson's opponent first to act on the turn and he bet 2,625.
When Brunson made the call, a completed the board on the river. This time Brunson's opponent bet 3,450 and Brunson responded by raising it to 14,325. Brunson's opponent thought for an extremely long time before eventually letting go of his hand and sending the win to Brunson.
As Brunson scooped up the pot, he tabled a of hearts and said something along the lines of, "Almost managed the straight flush."
Dan Kelly opened to 800 in middle position, and David "Doc" Sands examined Kelly's stack before three-betting to 1,850 on the button. The action folded back to Kelly, who moved all in for around 13,000, and Sands made the call.

We don't know exactly how the action went before the flop, but we do know some significant raising took place between Sorel Mizzi and a player in late position. With around 6,000 in the pot before the flop, Mizzi's opponent was left with around 7,500. The dealer fanned the flop and Mizzi pushed forward a bet that would put his opponent all in. The late position player quickly called and cards were tabled.

Lawrence Uresti III and Jillian Singerman started at the same table and had a little extra incentive seeing each other across the table. Both are competing in the Onnit Labs Last Sticker Standing Contest, where the last player standing will pocket a cool $5,000.
Singerman recently busted, but Uresti III has had a tumultuous, yet solid day. He was off to a great start with more than 70,000, then found himself back to about the starting stack. He has since moved back to about the 70,000-chip mark, but we just recently watched him take a minor hit.
