Slow and Steady

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

The amount of players is slowly rising. We started out with only 36 players registered in the tournament but right now there are already over 130 in the tournament. The latest of these entries include Max Silver and 888 ambassador Dominik Nitsche.

We haven't seen a lot of action though, but that might be because the players all have 250 big blinds to play around with.

Margereson makes Morris Fold

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante
Arthur Morris
Arthur Morris

With about 4,500 in the pot and a {7-Clubs}{K-Spades}{4-Clubs} board out there, Scott Margereson checked from the small blind and Arthur Morris checked on the button.

The {5-Clubs} turn came down and Margereson chose to bet this time by putting in chips that looked like somewhere around the 3,000 mark. Morris called to see the river.

The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Margereson put in another bet. This time it was a bit bigger as he shoved 8,500 forward. Morris shook his head as he laid down his cards.

Kornuth Shoved On

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante
Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

The players started the day with a chip stack worth 250 big blinds. But despite this, Chance Kornuth has already seen one opponent shove on him.

The flop came down {3-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}, and his opponent checked. Kornuth bet and his opponent put this whole stack into the middle. The raise was around 35,000 and Kornuth instantly folded with a confused look on his face.
