Kravchenko Smashes One

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Alex Kravchenko, pictured in a different event.

A player in the big blind bet 7,000 into Alex Kravchenko on a {6-Hearts}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop, and Kravchenko dropped a stack of pink T5,000 chips in, raising pot. His opponent thought for about a minute before shoving all in, and Kravchenko turned over {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} for a nearly insurmountable lead over the {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{4-Clubs} of his opponent. The {8-Diamonds} turn eradicated what little equity Kravchenko's opponent had, and another player hits the rail.

Marchese Wins a Big One from Trickett

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Tom Marchese checked the {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} board from middle position, and Sam Trickett bet 40,000 in the cutoff. Marchese took his time, thinking for about a minute before calling. On the {9-Hearts} river, Marchese checked, then Trickett thought for a bit, sighed and picked up his cards, and checked behind.

"Full house," Marchese said, showing {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, good for a flush on the turn as well.

Trickett nodded and mucked.

Seidel Done

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Richard Gryko opened for 3,200 in middle position and was called by both Phil Laak and the player on the button. In the small blind, Erik Seidel potted all in, and Gryko got a count and repotted, driving out Laak and the player on the button.

Gryko: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Seidel: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}, bringing absolutely nothing to Seidel's relatively live hand.

Linton Gets Two Streets from Jachtmann

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Three players saw a {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop, and Peter Linton bet 2,800 from the big blind. Jan-Peter Jachtmann called in late position, as did the small blind. On the {8-Clubs} turn, the price increased to 10,000 from Linton, and Jachtmann again called. Both players checked the {9-Clubs} river, and Linton showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for top two.

The eagerly anticipated Event #64: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship returns for Day 2 today.

Chance Kornuth leads the 132-player field with 338,200. Ruslan Dykshteyn is barely behind him with 338,000, while Tom Marchese sits in third with 300,100. Michael Kamran (272,000) and Will Durkee (248,100) round out the top five. David Williams (225,200), JC Tran (214,900), Sam Trickett (214,000), Sean Winter (179,900), Sergey Rybachenko (178,900), 2012 winner Jan-Peter Jachtmann (150,200), Matt Stout (149,800), and Daniel Negreanu (149,700) will all be players to keep a close eye on as well as they are near the top of the leader boards, having proven themselves to be dangerous tournament players time and again.

Cards will be in the air at 2 p.m., and the plan is for 10 levels to be played today. Players will have a bit of breathing time today, unlike with Day 1's frantic pace, as breaks are scheduled for 20 minutes instead of 15 and a dinner break will be given. Blinds will begin at 800/1,600, so don't go anywhere as we bring you all of the live updates right here on PokerNews.
