Wheeler and Moorman Flying High

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jason Wheeler and Chris Moorman have big stacks as the tournament progresses to the fifth level, which also happens to be the half way point. Moorman's accumulation of chips is most impressive considering he's sharing a table with Gaelle Baumann, Andrew Kichtenberger and Adam Levy among others.

Dobson Ousts Greenstein

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante
Barry Greenstein - Busted
Barry Greenstein - Busted

We noticed that Barry Greenstein's seat was empty so asked Ben Dobson, who is sitting at Greenstein's former table, if he saw what happened.

"Yes, I busted him!" said Dobson, telling us he'd raised with {4-}{4-} from the cutoff and Barry defended with {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Dobson hit a set on a flop with two hearts, the chips went into the middle, Dobson filled up on the turn and Greenstein was gone.

Barry Greenstein

On a flop of {4-}{3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, Barry Greenstein got the last of his chips all in with {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} versus a flopped set of fours for his opponent. The {3-Clubs} turn filled up Greenstein's opponent and he was drawing dead.

Brandon Meyers has mountains of chips after a superb start here in the $3,000 buy-in event. Meyers has already cashed three times at the 2014 World Series of Poker and is a good bet to make it number four if he keeps up his current pace.

Alner Fires Two Barrel

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

British pro Tom Alner raised to 450 from the cutoff and was first called by Gordon Huntly on the button. The big blind tossed in the extra calling chips to make it a three-way contested pot.

The flop fell {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and the big blind checked to Alner, who bet 1,025. Only Huntly called.

The turn brought the {K-Spades} into play and Alner welcomed it with a bet of 1,850. Huntly double checked the bet amount and riffled through some black and blue T100 chips before sending his cards into the muck.

Dunst With a Massive Stack

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Tony Dunst must be pleased with how his day has gone so far because he's sat behind 39,200 chips. Likewise for Ludovic Geilich who has 22,200.

Geilich is playing in his first World Series of Poker and is one of the game's rising stars so we will be keeping a close eye on him throughout proceedings today.
