Hwang Busted

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

We just caught Andy Hwang busting after getting it in with about as many draws as you could possible have. Hwang was heads up when the rest of his money got into the middle on a flop of {7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Clubs}.

Hwang: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Opponent: {6-Spades}{a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Hwang's opponent had a set, but he could still win the hand with an eight, ten, king, or a club. Well he caught the {k-Spades} on the turn, but his lead didn't hold for very long, as the {7-Diamonds} hit the river, pairing the board and giving his opponent a full house.

Some Golden Updates

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

As we saw back down from getting these updated counts, we saw Daniel Negreanu casually walk by the table, and head for the exits. He is one of our early causalities.

Danzer Gets Three Quarters

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante
George Danzer
George Danzer

We caught up with the action in a heads up pot involving George Danzer, with the flop reading {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}. Danzer had checked to his opponent, who fired out 700. Danzer then check raised all in for his last 1,775, and his opponent called.

Danzer: {7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Danzer was in great shape, as he had a straight for the high, and had the same low as his opponent. The river brought the {k-Hearts}, and Danzer took 3/4 of the pot, upping his stack to 6,775, which is his total count including both of his lammers.
