Some Pavilion Participants

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

There are a dozen or so overspill tables in the Pavilion Room, so we thought we'd take a stroll over and see who is there.

"I Know What You've Got"

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

With 1,150 in the pot and a board reading {8-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Spades}{3-Clubs}, a player in the big blind checked to David "Devilfish" Ulliott who bet 600. His opponent thought long and hard before making the call and then checking in the dark.

"Check-raising in the dark," he added before the dealer completed the board with the {10-Hearts} river.

Ulliott checked behind, and in his thick Hull accent said, "King-queen."

"No good," his opponent said.

"I know," the Devilfish retorted. "I know what you've got."

The player tabled {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for a pair of aces. Ulliott then showed his {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} before sending them to the muck.

"Keep Three-Betting Me, I Go Crazy"

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Three players each put in 900 to see a flop of {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. The small blind, who had three-bet preflop, continued for 1,400 and Cary Katz used both hands to slide out his entire stack of 8,000 or so from the under-the-gun position. Jeremy Ausmus folded from the hijack, and action was back on the small blind.

"Really? That's like an ace-high flush draw," he said aloud before folding his cards.

"That's what happens when you keep three-betting me," Katz responded. "I go crazy."

Newey Eliminates Kirby

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Matt Kirby was recently eliminated from the tournament. We missed the hand, but he was kind enough to inform us that he ran queens into kings against the player in Seat 1. That player just so happens to be Paul Newey, who will be playing the Big One for One Drop later this summer.

One for the 2010 Main Event Champ

Jonathan Duhamel

Jonathan Duhamel opened for 350 under the gun and the player in the big blind opted to defend. After the flop came down {9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}, the player in the big blind checked and then folded to a bet of 500 from Duhamel.

It wasn't much of a hand, but it gave us a good excuse to let you know that the 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event champ is in the field and doing fine.
