Clark Sends Koppel to the Rail

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Chuck Clark
Chuck Clark

Chuck Clark opened to1,700 from under-the-gun and called when Minnesota's Jared Koppel three-bet to 5,000 from the small blind. Koppel then checked the {4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{a-Spades} flop, Clark bet 4,000 and Koppel called to see the {Q-Spades} turn. Koppel checked for a second time and then moved all in for roughly 70,000 after Clark bet 10,100. Clark called and the cards were turned up.

Clark: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}
Koppel: {a-}{q-}

Koppel had turned two pair, but it was no good as Clark had made a flush. Koppel needed either an ace or queen on the river to keep his Main Event hopes alive, but it was not meant to be as the {10-Clubs} blanked. Koppel made a beeline for the exit while Clark chipped up to 165,000.

A Few More Pavilion Chip Counts

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Sub Fifty Big Blinds

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

James Dempsey three-bet a 1,700 opener to 4,400. The player in the small blind popped it up to 9,800 and took it down preflop.

Dempsey is currently just below a 50 big blind stack. Here’s a look at a few other stacks around Brasilia who fit that description:

Hoivold Flats River "Misclick"

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Andreas Hoivold called barrels of 5,000 on the flop and 10,000 on the turn on a board of {6-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. After the river card, the player who was firing announced "twenty-five" before dropping in 25,000. The floor was called, and the ruling was that the bet had to be smallest 25 - 2,500.

"It would be pretty funny to raise to 25,000 now," Hoivold said as he considered his options.

He tossed in a call, and his opponent showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a boat.

Pavilion White Chip Counts

Various Chips Counts from Around the Amazon Room

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Bjerno Takes a Hit

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Nathan Bjerno opened his button to 2,000 only to have the player in the small blind make it 4,400 to go. The big blind got out of the way and Bjerno called to see a flop.

The dealer fanned {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} on the felt and Bjerno's opponent continued out for 4,500. Bjerno stuck around and the {5-Clubs} struck the felt on fourth street. Action slowed with a check to Bjerno who checked it back. The {A-Hearts} completed the board, Bjerno's opponent bet 5,000, and the two-time WSOP Circuit ring let his hand go. With this hit, Bjerno is now down to about 65,000.

Lerner Tops Tan Section

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Margolin Moves to 200K

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Timur Margolin was faced with a bet of 4,500 on a flop of {j-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, and put in a raise to 12,600. His opponent shoved for what looked like 60,000 or so, and Margolin made a quick call.

Margolin: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {a-}{6-Diamonds}

Margolin's hand held up as the turn and river bricked {10-Diamonds}, {3-Clubs} respectively, and he recorded the knockout. The Israeli now has 202,000 chips.

Rousso's Kings Cracked

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Vanessa Rousso
Vanessa Rousso

Vanessa Rousso opened to 1,800 and the player to her immediate left moved all in for less than 20,000. It was folded back to Rousso who called with {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}. She was in great shape to knock out the shorter-stacked player who held {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, but the flop would come {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and the turn and river of {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs} would change nothing. Rousso was left with approximately 20,000 after the hand.
