Pat Ten For Baker

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 500 ante

Jesse Martin raised to 6,000 from the cutoff and the button folded his cards. David Bakes Baker made it 18,000 to go from the small blind and it folded back to Martin. He tanked for a bit before finally dropping out a call.

Baker tapped the table to signify standing pat while Martin opted to draw one card. Baker checked post-draw and Martin rapped the table behind. Baker showed {10-}{9-} and then followed that with the rest of his hand - {5-}{4-}{3-}. Martin mucked his cards and Baker dragged in the pot. The 2010 champion of this event now has about 106,000 while Martin has fallen to 122,000.

Hennigan Check-Raises

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 400 ante

Italian Max Pescatori raised to 3,700 on the button. John Hennigan defended his big blind, the flicked forward two cards. Pescatori tossed in only one, and Hennigan checked while looked at his cards. Pescatori flipped out a single T5,000 chip, and Hennigan check-raised to 19,000.

Pescatori tank-folded.

Ninety-Six > Ninety-Eight

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 400 ante

It appeared as if three bets when in preflop between Jon Turner and Layne Flack, and Turner discarded one. Six-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner "Back-to-Back" Flack stood pat, and Turner opted to lead out for 16,800. Flack cut out enough chips to call, then after a moment for thought, committed them.

"Ninety-six," Turner said, fanning {9-}{6-}{5-}{3-}{2-}.

Flack frowned, which is a rarity because he is one of the most energetic and happiest people in the room, then flashed a {9-}{8-}{5-}{4-}{2-} before mucking.

Bakes Takes from Martin, Then Busts Galfond

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 400 ante
David "Bakes" Baker
David "Bakes" Baker

After doubling through him, David "Bakes" Baker three-bet Jesse Martin on the button. Martin, who raised to 4,600, called the extra 6,400, then drew one. Bakes stood pat.

Both players checked, and Baker showed {j-}{10-}{9-}{5-}{3-}, winning the pot.

The next hand, Baker opened to 4,000 then called an all-in bet from Phil Galfond. Baker stood pat with {8-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{2-}, Galfond drew one with {7-}{6-}{5-}{3-}, and Galfond hit the rail when he paired his seven.

Laak Bests Schneider

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 400 ante

Phil Laak opened to 3,500 from the cutoff and it folded to Tom Schneider in the small blind. He tossed out a call and the big blind got out of the way. Schneider was first to draw and announced that he would take three.

"Did you just draw three!?" asked a stunned Laak. "Is that even legal?"

Laak took one card to complete the draw and Schneider checked over to him. Laak fired 5,500 and Schneider wasted little time calling. Laak fanned {10-}{9-}{6-}{5-}{4-} for a ten-low which prompted Schenider to flash a {J-} before mucking his cards. Laak dragged in the pot and now has about 142,000 in chips.

A Couple of Cold Four-Bets

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 400 ante

Jon Turner opened to 4,700 from early position, Phil Laak three-bet to 15,700 out of the small blind, Naoya Kihara cold four-bet to 100,000 out of the big blind. Turner quickly folded, while Laak took his time before flicking his cards into the muck.

"That one hurt," Laak admitted.

On another table, Matthew Ashton opened to 4,000, Phil Ivey three-bet to 10,500 on the button, and Larry Wright tanked for well over two minutes before four-betting to 29,500 in the big blind. Ashton folded, and Ivey started to cackle.

"How much is that?" he asked Wright.

"Seventeen-hundred," Wright said, spreading out the few chips he had left.

Ivey laughed again.

"No," he said. "That."

Ivey pointed at the four-bet, which was a massive stack of rainbow colored ships. Wright told him the amount, and Ivey tank-folded.
