Showers for Jarvis

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

2010 World Series of Poker Main Event finalist Matt Jarvis has busted from the Millionaire Maker. We saw Jarvis heading tothe registration desk while we were on our journey to the Pavilion Room, which indicates he's out of this event and already planning for the next one.

Good Instincts From Lee

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

Bernard Lee called a three-bet to 1,100 and then folded when the initial raiser moved all in. The three-bettor shoved as well and Lee folded {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The other two opponents turned over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}, the board ran out {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and the fold from Lee kept him alive.

Vamplew Vanished

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

David Vamplew first got it in with {A-}{Q-} on a {J-}{6-}{2-}{Q-} turn against pocket jacks and his opponent even rivered another jack for quads to rub it in. Down to less than 10 big blinds the rest of the stack vanished with ace deuce suited into ace queen. The Scotsman will be back to the grind tomorrow and is gonna register for the $1,000 NLHE.

Some Updates From Pavilion

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

Woods Vs Elias

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

James Woods was faced with a 1,100 bet of Darren Elias on the {10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} turn and raised to scare off his opponent. There were already more than 2,000 in the pot and the actor and poker lover added to his stack. Just after that hand was finished, the player in between stood up and approached me: "Can you tell me the name of the guy next to me?" He is probably not watching much TV.

Two Outer For Kerstetter

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

On a {10-}{6-}{2-} flop with two spades, Jamie Kerstetter got it in with pocket jacks and saw her opponent reveal pocket deuces. A jack on the turn saved the Grindette and she doubled up.

Benefield Has Plenty of Betting Tokens

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

David Benefield, the eighth place finisher in the 2013 World Series of Poker Main Event, is going great guns in the Millionaire Maker. The man known as "Raptor" has more than doubled his starting stack and is armed with 9,100 chips at the last count.

French-Canadian powerhouse Erik Cajelais is also nicely chipped up with 8,400 betting tokens, but we can't say the same for Luc Greenwood who is languishing with only 1,300 chips.

Bui Ballin

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

David Bui would have been up even further in the chip counts if he hadn't lost the last pot. He had two players at risk with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} versus {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} and {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} but the second opponent spiked a king on the flop to survive.

Incoming Sharks

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

The tournament staff are fanatically trying to clear the players from the Yellow section of the Pavilion Room so they can run their usual array of tournaments and satellites. This section is the first to be broken, which means players such as Brian Rast, Joe Serock and the legendary Barry Greenstein are all heading this way as their former tables are no longer in use.
