One for Action Dan

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

After a player limped under the gun, Dan Harrington called from middle position. The blinds came along and four players saw a flop of {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. Three checks put action on Harrington and he wasted little time in betting 500. The blinds folded, the under-the-gun player called and it was heads-up action to the turn, which came the {3-Hearts}.

After a check, Harrington bet 900 and the under-the-gun player check-raised to 2,400. Harrington thought for about 20 seconds before three-betting to 8,400 and it did the trick as his opponent quickly mucked.

Hansen Takes One Out

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante
Thor Hansen
Thor Hansen

The action started with Thor Hansen opening to 700 from middle position, and finding a call from the player near the button, as well as both blinds.

The flop came down {q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, as the blinds checked their options, before Hansen threw out a continuation bet of 1,400. His opponent then raised it up to 7,225, which he thought was his all in. He hadn’t realised the 500-chip that was protecting his cards, as the action folded back around to Hansen, who also hadn’t noticed, and made the call.

The {10-Clubs} fell on the turn, and Hansen threw in a 500-chip, and his opponent called, as both tabled their cards.

Hansen: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Hansen was in great shape to eliminate his opponent from the tournament, and when the {5-Diamonds} completed the board, he had done just that, with his ace-kicker proving the difference .

Fossilman Buried

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante
Greg Raymer Was All Smiles Earlier in the Day, but a Busted Bluff Has Sent the Former Champ Packing
Greg Raymer Was All Smiles Earlier in the Day, but a Busted Bluff Has Sent the Former Champ Packing

Whenever the camera crews begin circling like vultures here on a Day 1 flight of the Main Event, it usually spells either triumph or trouble for one of the field's brightest stars.

For the champion of the 2004 Main Event, Greg "Fossilman" Raymer, the arrival of the film crew spelled the latter.

According to the helpful poker fans lining the rail alongside Raymer's former table, the action began when he opened to 800 from UTG+1, receiving calls from a player in middle position, as well as Andy Miller in the big blind.

When the flop brought a rainbow board of {10-}{5-}{5-} to the table, Miller led out for 2,000, and both Raymer and the third player in the hand flatted. The turn card was a {3-}, and again Miller led out for a bet, this time for 3,000.

Raymer decided to spring his trap, jamming all in for a sizable stack in hopes of forcing his opponents off the pot. The player in middle position tanked for a solid two minutes, but eventually folded while flashing his {A-}{10-} to the rail. With the action back on him, Miller decided to look "Fossilman" up and he made the call with {Q-}{10-} for top pair.

His bluff called, Raymer could table only the {A-}{K-} and he would need an ace or a king to extend his latest Main Event run.

River: {3-}

With that, the buzzards began filming Raymer's departure, and the champ was typically gracious in defeat, offering Miller his trademark fossil card protector as a memento of their all-in encounter.

Pops the Mint

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

We happened upon Table 368 just in time to see MMA star Georges St. Pierre bet 2,000 from middle position into a pot of about 3,000 with a board reading {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. The player on the button made the call and then GSP fired out a single orange T5,000 chip on the {10-Spades} river. The button thought long and hard before folding, which prompted the rest of the table to encourage GSP to show a bluff.

St. Pierre did not oblige and instead opened a mint from it's plastic wrapped, put it in his mouth, smiled and then silently slid his cards to the muck with a smile on his face.

Bach Loses to Hansen

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

The hand started with the player in middle position opening to 700, and finding a call from David Bach and Thor Hansen behind him. The flop came down {6-Spades}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}, as the action checked over to Hansen, who bet out 3,500, which only Bach called. The two then opted to check the {j-Spades} on the turn, as well as the {k-Diamonds} on the river, before Hansen tabled his {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}, which took down the pot.

Get to Know Shane Warne

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante
Shane Warne
Shane Warne

We've talked a lot today about the celebrities in the field, and another we've yet to feature is Australian cricket legend Shane 'Warney' Warne. For those who don't know, Warne, who retired after the 2006-07 series, was the Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1994, One-Day International Player of the year in 2000, and Test Player of the Year in 2006.

Warne has also co-authored three books: Shane Warne: My Official Illustrated Career, The Complete Shane Warne, and Shane Warne: My Own Story. He may not be the biggest name in the States, but believe us when we say that Warne is a big a celebrity as they come in the Asia Pacific region.

Since 2008, Warne has been keeping his competitive spirit alive by playing in poker tournaments around the world. His biggest cash to date back in August 2010 when he took third in the Victorian Poker Championship A$10,000 No-Limit Hold'em High Stakes Event for $35,899. He is still looking for his first WSOP cash.
