Big Clash Coming?
It could be, but it's a limit game and big stacks have little effect on the way hands play out. But it is good to know that two of the biggest stacks in the room are seated at the same table.
Allen Bari just got moved to Thayer Rasmussen's table and the two started chatting right away. Rasmussen got his biggest live tournament result back in 2007 when he finished fourth in the WPT Mandalay Bay Poker Championship for $131,170 but he is mostly known as an online player under the handle THAY3R. Allen Bari had a massive result at last year's WSOP when he won the $5,000 No Limit Hold'em tournament when he beat Maria Ho heads up and brought home the $874,116 first place prize. With these big stacks and years of poker experience we expect big things from these two players.

and took dwon the pot with two pair. Deeb is down to 95,000 chips and not looking happy right now.
Tyler Schwecke check-called a 6,000 bet from Negreanu and the river was the 
to scoop the pot. Schwecke double checked his cards before mucking and saw himself knocked down to just 40,000 chips. Negreanu is cruising with 112,000 but it's still Shaun Deeb who is in the lead at this table.
