Partying With Bill Chen and Doing The Thing

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante
Bill Chen
Bill Chen

"I wanna party with Bill Chen!" announced Tom Schneider proudly.

Schneider then looked to our PokerNews reporter and asked, "Do you want me to party with Bill Chen?"

He then turned back towards the table and continued, "Cause I wanna party with Bill Chen. We're going to be on the dancefloor doing the thing. Whatever that thing is!"

Table 364 is currently having the time of their lives as they are into the third round of beers. David Oppenheim asked the waiter to deliver the rounds every 15 minutes, and so far he is yet to fail.

A few other players around the room are also receiving alcoholic beverages, but there is no chance they are having as much fun as the players on table 364.

Level 9 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante
Richard Ashby
Richard Ashby

Catching the action on fifth street, David "ODB" Baker bet out 2,000 and Richard Ashby raised all in for his last 3,100. With the action on Brandon Shack-Harris, he raised to 5,100 and Baker made the call before calling down Shack-Harris on sixth and seventh streets.

Ashby: (X-X) / {8-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{7-Spades}{K-Diamonds} / (X)
Shack-Harris: (X-X) / {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts} / (X)
Baker: (X-X) / {K-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} / (X)

Shack-Harris announced he had an eight-seven, and with it Baker tabled his {A-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Spades} for a eight-six. Ashby and his {A-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts} was sent flying to the muck as the Brit headed to the rail.

Maria Ho has been fighting, but it hasn't been easy, as the following two hands will attest to.

Phil Ivey: (X-X) / {4-}{9-}{3-}
Maria Ho: (X-X) / {6-}{10-}{Q-}

In the first hand, Ho was pitted against Ivey. After Ivey led on fourth street, and Ho called, Ho was facing another bet on fifth street. This time, she was showing a queen against Ivey's nine. Ho opted to fold, and Ivey scooped the pot.

Although she lost that one against the nine-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner, Ho was able to double up on the next hand through Mike Gorodinsky.

Gorodinsky: ({8-}{3-}) / {4-}{A-}{10-}{A-} / ({6-})
Ho: ({5-}{2-}) / {4-}{4-}{3-}{3-} / ({6-})

On this hand, Gorodinsky bet out on fourth, and Ho called. On fifth, he bet again, but Ho fired back with a raise. Gorodinsky called. Then on sixth, Gorodinsky checked, Ho bet the last of her chips, and Gorodinsky called.

Ho opened up {5-}{2-} from the hole and was still drawing against Gorodinsky, who showed {8-}{3-} from the hole.

Ho landed a {6-} on the river, and Gorodinsky hit a {6-}. Ho's hand was best, and she doubled up.

It's Butzhammer Time

Level 9 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante

A new chip leader has emerged with German Thomas Butzhammer sitting behind a 122,800-chip stack.

Although his poker resume only includes 4 WSOP cashes and just over $500,000 in earnings, we have been assured be a fellow German PokerNews blogger that he is one to watch out for in this event.
