Plenty of Extras Being Given Away at This Year's WSOP

Level 10

The buzz inside the walls of the Rio extends beyond just the tournaments on the 2013 World Series of Poker schedule. Online poker in Nevada is a very, very hot topic right now, and WSOP.com is making a lot of noise.

While the site has yet to launch, you can head to the Lambada Room of the Rio or look for one of the beautiful and friendly WSOP.com ladies walking the hallways to sign up for a free, personal WSOP.com online poker account. This is a great way to get a jump on the site's registration, and plenty of people have already taken this opportunity.

What's more is that the WSOP will be hosting daily raffles for everyone that has taken the time to register for WSOP.com at the Rio. What can you win? Plenty of fantastic prizes including 36 WSOP seats!

Players 21 years of age and older who sign up for a WSOP.com account will automatically be entered into the “36-Seat Giveaway” where a randomly-selected winner will win a seat into the next day’s first WSOP gold bracelet event. One of the events eligible in this promotion is the $111,111 One Drop High Roller No-Limit Hold’em tournament that is expected to feature a $10,000,000 prize pool and allow you to play poker with the biggest names in the game. In total, $182,333 in WSOP seats, including a seat to the WSOP Main Event, are being given away during this one-of-a-kind WSOP.com promotion.

In addition to the 36-Seat Giveaway, a “Hot Seat” promotion will allow any player who signs up for a WSOP.com online account and wears their WSOP.com patch on their chest at the table while playing an event to be randomly selected to receive 500 bonus dollars deposited directly into their WSOP.com online account once the site has received all regulatory approvals and launches.

Anderson's Eights Aren't Good

Level 10

Omaha Eight-or-Better

A player opened with a late position raise and Calvin Anderson called on the button. The flop brought {J-Spades}{K-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and it was checked to Anderson. He fired out a bet and Anderson's opponent came over the top with a raise. Anderson called to see the turn.

The dealer produced the {2-Diamonds} and Anderson's opponent bet. Anderson called and the {4-Clubs} hit the river. It was bet once more and Anderson called the bet.

Anderson's opponent threw up the {2-Spades} and shook his head. This prompted Anderson to show {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} and then table the rest of his hand- {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}.

Anderson's opponent shook his head and then after about five seconds finally tabled the rest of his hand- showing {A-Spades}{j-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} for the best hand with a pair of jacks.

"...You've got it," said Anderson quizzically. The pot was pushed toward his opponent and Anderson quietly questioned why his opponent would slow roll like that.

"I was just mad the spades didn't come," he replied as he stacked his new chips. Anderson is now down to about 6,000.

Williams Takes Four-bet Pot

Level 10

Omaha Eight or Better

Chris Reslock, on the button, put in four bets on the turn against David Williams, in the big blind, and another player in middle position. The board read {4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, and both of Reslock's opponents called. The river came {10-Diamonds}, and Williams led out. The middle-position player folded, and Reslock made the call.

Williams turned over {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a flush draw, nut low draw, and rivered straight. Reslock turned over his hand, but we only saw a queen before the dealer swept up his cards, so we believe he had a set of queens.

Lisandro Doubles Through Williams

Level 10
Jeffrey Lisandro
Jeffrey Lisandro

Pot-Limit Omaha

We caught up to find David Williams and Jeff Lisandro looking down at a board of {8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Williams plopped out enough chips to put Lisandro all in and Lisandro called for his tournament life.

Williams: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Lisandro: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The turn was the {4-Hearts} and the river the {5-Spades}, securing Lisandro would double up with his pair of aces. He's now sitting on about 15,000 while WIlliams has fallen to around 65,000.

Schulman, Harder Duel

Level 10

PLO

In one of the last hands before break, Christian Harder opened for 1,000 from the button, and Nick Schulman made the call from the small blind.

The flop came down coordinated: {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{8-Spades}, and Schulman check-called 1,400. He then led out 4,200 on a {3-Hearts} turn, and Harder thought for a long time before calling. The dealer turned over the {4-Clubs} for the river card, and Schulman checked. Harder bet the pot, nearly enough to put Schulman all in. Schulman folded his hand after some thought.

Bonomo Not Scared

Level 11

Razz

Online legend Jon "Pearljammer" Turner checked to Justin Bonomo after all the cards had been dealt. Turner was showing four wheel cards, while Bonomo had a pair of deuces and a four-five.

Bonomo thought briefly before betting into Turner's scary board, leaving him with almost nothing behind. Turner thought for a bit before folding his hand.
