Level: 7

Blinds: 400/800

Ante: 100

Swinford Up to 100,000

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Brian Swinford limped under the gun and Roland Israelashvili moved all of his big chips out in front of his chip stack. He had about 35,000, and another player then moved all in for 20,000.

It folded back to Swinford who moved all in and turned over {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} before action was closed. There was a pause, with Israelashvili all but covered, and he then moved all in as well, not deterred by the aces.

Brian Swinford: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Roland Israelashvili: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Player 3: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Swinford eliminated one player, and left Israelashvili with just one big blind.

ODB Looks for a Rebuy

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

On a {10-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} board, one player checked to David "ODB" Baker, who bet 2,500 from a stack of around 12,000. His opponent called. Baker showed {8-Spades}{6-Spades} and his opponent took down the pot with {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}.

Mike "East Coast Rossy" Ross was on the rail and was on hand to provide some astute analysis. "Tell them Rossy said ODB played it like shit."

"I'm trying to bust so I can rebuy," said Baker, who slipped to less than half starting stack.

Owen Down After Early Skirmish

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

With the blinds at 150/300/25, the player under the gun limped and Adam Owen made it 1,300 to go from the cutoff. The big blind then cold four-bet to 4,500. The initial raiser folded and Owen called.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} but Owen quickly folded to a continuation-bet of 3,200.
