Snead Finds Life; No Longer "That Guy"

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Down to his last 1,500 chips, Sam Snead was in the small blind and three-bet all in over a hijack open. His opponent called.

Sam Snead: {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts} giving him a flopped full house to beat his opponent's trips and earn the double, exclaiming, "instead of waiting for this hand, I put it in on the other piece of shit."

On the following hand, the hijack raised to 600 and was called by the player in the cutoff. Snead was on the button and deliberated if he should shove again. He raised to 2,700 and the hijack reraised. Before long, the hijack and cutoff's chips were all in the middle.

"Are you going to call?" asked the dealer to Snead.

"Oh, I thought I already had!" he said as he tossed in his last 500 chips.

Sam Snead: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Hijack: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts}

The board ran out in a manner that gave Snead a straight on the river and he earned the triple up, getting back to just under 10,000

Inasaki Doubles Through Snead

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

There was around 7,000 in the pot on a board of {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Sam Snead had bet 3,000 from the big blind into Yohei Inasaki, who had raised all in to 13,200 from the hijack.

Snead thought for a bit before saying, "I think I'm beat but I will still call because I'm stupid. I have four hearts in my hand which is not good for me."

Yohei Inasaki: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Sam Snead: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Though Snead thought he was behind, he actually found himself ahead with queens up to Inasaki's pair of nines with an open-ended straight draw and flush draw.

The river then fell {7-Clubs}.

"Flush!" Inasaki claimed. Nobody at the table but him realized it until he mentioned it. He secured the double, meanwhile Snead was left on crumbs saying that he was the guy in all the updates - the unnamed opponent that loses every pot.

Fisch Triples With Straight, Byrraju Gambles His Way To Side Pot

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Action started with the player who was under the gun limping in. Jordan Fisch raised the pot to 900 from the hijack and the player in the small blind three-bet to 3,100. Rahul Byrraju called from the big blind and then the under-the-gun limper thought for a bit before deciding to let his hand go.

With action back on Fisch, he shoved all in for 6,400 total. The small blind shoved over the top to put Byrraju to a decision for his last few chips. He decided to gamble given the fact that the tournament allows one re-entry.

Jordan Fisch: {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Rahul Byrraju: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Small Blind: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Fisch thought he was in a tough situation but the board ran out {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{k-Clubs} to fill up a nine-high straight for him and earn the triple up. Byrraju's kings and tens then were good over his opponent's kings and nines and he took the side pot for his remaining 15,000.

Kjetland Flops Two Sets En Route to Triple

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Scott Bohlman had raised from under the gun and was three-bet by the player in the cutoff to 2,700. Shawn Kjetland was in the big blind and called the three-bet. Bohlman then four-bet to 11,500 and the cutoff shoved for 19,700. Kjetland called all in for less and all three players turned up their hands.

Shawn Kjetland: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Scott Bohlman: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Cutoff: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} to give Kjetland jacks full and secure the triple. Bohlman took the side pot with aces up and the third player was eliminated.

After the hand, another player at the table said he folded a ten. Kjetland responded saying he was happy he hit and that he was hoping he was up against aces and aces. It ended up being aces and kings but it did not matter to him in the end.

Seidel Joins the Field

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante
Erik Seidel (pictured in another event)
Erik Seidel (pictured in another event)

Erik Seidel was recently seen filling a vacant seat and was just seen in a small, multi-way uncontested pot until the river when he folded to a bet from one opponent. He appears to have a stack below the starting mark of 20,000 nearing the end of Level 2, meaning there are eight-plus more hours of play left in the day.
