Zack Beats Alexander in Showdown

Level 12 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Seven Card Stud

George Alexander: {x-}{x-} / {9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} / {x-}
Daniel Zack: {x-}{x-} / {j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{a-Spades}{5-Hearts} / {x-}

As of fifth street, George Alexander check-called bets by Daniel Zack and was seemingly befuddled by the board on the other side of the table. He reluctantly called the final bet by Zack, who announced a full house and rolled over {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for jacks full of aces.

Dan Cates opened to 12,000 from the hijack and found one caller in Jesse Klein in the big blind.

Brian Rast opened to 13,000 on the button and was called by Robert Campbell in the big blind.

Bohlman Busts; Monnette Gets a Jam Through

Level 12 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Scott Bohlman
Scott Bohlman

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Scott Bohlman raised with his short stack and called a three-bet by Julien Martini in the small blind. Martini drew one and Bohlman took one. The bet of Martini was called and both took one, Bohlman got his last few chips in and they patted. Martini had a {10-}{8-}{5-}{4-}{2-} and Bohlman flashed an inferior {10-}{8-}{6-}{5-}{x-} to bust.

As a result, the field was reduced to the final 36 players and a table broke to balance the field, sending Daniel Negreanu to the vacated seat. He arrived while the game type had just changed.

No-Limit Hold'em

John Monnette raised to 13,000 and called a three-bet by Josh Arieh. The {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop saw Monnette jam for what appeared to be 113,000 and Arieh folded.
