Jamie Kerstetter
Jamie Kerstetter

John Allan "Beastro" Hinds was seen playing early in the day for Team Zinno with Anthony Zinno.

A few tables over, Jamie Kerstetter was seen dragging in a three-way pot after defending in the small blind and leading out with a bet of 1,200 on the board of {4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{5-Clubs}.

Kerstetter, dressed in a pink bathrobe and holding a toilet brush, told PokerNews she is captain of the team consisting of herself and "the young David Baker."

Huge Suck Out for Team Loeser

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante
Manig Loeser
Manig Loeser

On a flop of {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, Manig Loeser from team Loeser checked and the player in the middle checked before the button put in a bet of 2,500. Loeser made the call and the third player got out of the way.

The {k-Spades} came on the turn and Loeser check-raised all-in for about 18,000 after the button put in a bet of 6,000. The button wasted very little time and put in his remaining stack of 17,600.

Button: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Team Loeser: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Loeser had turned trip kings with an ace-kicker but was up against his opponents' full house. The {a-Hearts} on the river was a painful one for team Loeser's opponent though as he filled up to kings full of aces to eliminate their team.

Team Miller Eliminates One in Cooler

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

A player limped under-the-gun and Jeff Miller of Team Miller raised to 1,000. The small blind completed and the limper came along as well.

On the flop came {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and the action checked to Miller who put in a bet of 2,200. The player in the small blind raised to 6,000 and the third player quickly folded before Miller announced all-in. The small blind thought about it for a few seconds and eventually called off her stack of about 19,000.

Small blind: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Team Miller: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

It was a cooler situation for the small blind but the {7-Diamonds} on the turn gave her team some life as they picked up a flush draw. Unfortunately for their team though the {4-Spades} on the river was no help.
