Daniel Makowsky Moving On Up

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

In 2008 and 2009, Daniel Makowsky finished in the top ten in four WSOP events including a 2nd place finish in a Pot Limit Omaha event that was good for $355,050. He started today with just shy of 25,000 in chips and has steadily been increasing his stack throughout the day. After dragging a recent pot, the native of Switzerland moved up to 365,000 which is one of the top stacks in the room.

Raymer Accumulating

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

With 57,000 already in the pot and the board showing {Q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} Greg Raymer led out for a bet from the small blind and was raised by the player in the big blind. A short stacked player had exactly enough to make the call and after tanking for over a minute put the last of his chips into the center of the table. Raymer announced a raise and the player in the big blind four bet it for an additional 9,000. Raymer called and the hands were turned over.

Raymer {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a straight
Player in big blind {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for the same straight and the nut low draw.
Short stack {A-}{2-}{X-}{X-} for the nut low draw.

The river was the {9-Spades} and Raymer and the player in the big blind chopped the pot and eliminated the short stacked player.

McNeil Spikes One-Outer to Survive

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Calen McNeil had to be happy after hitting an unlikely out.
Calen McNeil had to be happy after hitting an unlikely out.

Calen McNeil raised the button and got calls from Frankie O'Dell in the small blind and the big blind. O'Dell led out on the {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{k-Spades} flop, and the big blind folded. McNeil considered for a minute before raising, and he and O'Dell got it all in for McNeil's short stack.

McNeil: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}{8-Spades}
O'Dell: {k-}{k-}{x-}{x-}

"I'm drawing dead!" the defending champ exclaimed.

Not quite, as the dealer burned and turned the {a-Spades}.

"Case ace," the big blind said, pointing at the card. The {j-Diamonds} river only gave McNeil a bigger boat.

At another table, Marc Durand, who had been clinging to a short stack for about half an hour, finally busted out.
