Double Your Pleasure

Level 6 : 250/500, 0 ante

David "Devilfish" Ulliott had just managed to double up close to 50,000, getting paid with {a-}{a-} when Mike Matusow screamed out a few tables over.

"Yes," he exclaimed, as several players jokingly called for a penalty, referencing the excessive celebration penalty Matusow recieved in the O8-Stud8 event the other day.

Apparently Matusow could care less about getting a penalty today.

"I could go to bed right now and wake up still at the top of the chip counts," he said.

We didn't see the action, but Jason Koon just sent his short stack over to fellow shorty Sorel Mizzi on a board of {7-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}. Koon had {a-Spades}{j-Spades} for a missed straight draw, while Mizzi had a dominated {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} that flopped top pair and held up.

Negreanu Joins The Fun

Level 6 : 250/500, 0 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

As expected, six-time WSOP bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu has hopped in the field here just minutes after busting out of the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. across the hall.

Already this year, Negreanu has posted three deep runs in three $10,000 Championship level events, including finishing 18th in the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E., 10th in the $10,000 Seven Card Razz and second in the $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball.

Expect the voice of "Kid Poker" to be heard as things continue here.

Bonomo Takes Four-Bet Pot from O'Donnell

Level 6 : 250/500, 0 ante

In one of the last hands at Level 6, Justin Bonomo, on the button, called what appeared to be a four-bet to 8,500 from Matt O'Donnell in the cutoff. O'Donnell bet 9,000 on the {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop, and Bonomo opted to continue. On the {6-Hearts} turn, O'Donnell checked and Bonomo decided on a small bet, another 9,000. O'Donnell considered for a bit before ultimately folding.

Hennigan Has A Dream

Level 7 : 300/600, 0 ante

John Hennigan sat down for the first time at the start of this seventh level telling his table he had a dream he was going to raise the first hand he saw no matter what it was. Forced to post, instead he called a 1,300-chip open from Jared Hamby and the player in the big blind came along as well.

The flop came down {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades} and after a check, Hamby bet 2,100. Both Hennigan and the big blind called to see the {8-Diamonds} turn. This time Hamby bet 10,800 and only Hennigan called.

They checked down the {j-Spades} river before Hennigan turned over {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and it was enough to get him off to the kind of start he'd dreamed of.
