Bohn Shows the Bluff

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

A player opened for 1,200 under the gun, and Blake Bohn three-bet to 3,500 from middle position. His opponent made the call, and the two checked an {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop. The player under the gun bet 3,500 on the {a-Clubs} turn, and Bohn did the calling this time. On the {j-Spades} river, the first player bet 5,500. Bohn pushed all in for about 21,000, and his opponent thought for about a minute before saying something to Bohn and mucking his hand. Bohn showed {10-Spades}{7-Spades} for an airball, and he raked the pot.

Lichtenberger Busts Chidwick

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

A brief - but intense - raising war saw Stephen Chidwick open for a raise, Andrew Lichtenberger three-bet and then call when Chidwick moved all-in for around 10,000 chips.

Chidwick held {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} and was in a coinflip with Lichtenberger's {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}. Chidwick's hand remained best until the river of the {2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{A-Hearts} board, and the ace on the river condemned Chidwick to an out-of-the money finish in this event.

Selbst's Pressure Too Much for Kawauti

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

Bruno Kawauti bet 2,600 on a board of {5-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}, and Vanessa Selbst raised to 7,400 in position. Kawauti thought for about two minutes before making the call, and the {4-Diamonds} was cause for a check from the Brazilian. Selbst fired out 14,200 this time, and Kawauti took even longer before laying his hand down.

"Nice hand," he said.

Heimiller Gone, but Minty Fresh

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

We believe that the winner of the Seniors Event, Dan Heimiller, has been eliminated, judging by the fact we saw him in the bathroom a few minutes ago brushing his teeth and gargling with mouthwash, freshening up after a hard day at the office.

Heimiller is one of the most popular players on the circuit, the video below gives a hint as to why:
