Fuchs Eliminates Baker

Level 5
Carol Fuchs
Carol Fuchs

Pot-Limit Omaha

David "Bakes" Baker was just seen leaving the tournament floor, and his exectutioner, Carol Fuchs was kind enough to relay the details of his elimination.

Preflop, Fuchs raised to 1,100 and Baker called in the big blind.

On a flop of {k-}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Baker check-raised Fuchs, then called off for the rest of his roughly 40,000 chip stack after Fuchs shoved on him.

David "Bakes" Baker: {k-}{5-}{x-}{x-}
Carol Fuchs: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

Baker had top two pair, but was facing a world of outs for Fuchs who had a wrap and a flush draw.

The {9-Spades} brought no help to Fuchs, but the {a-Hearts} on the river certainly did, giving the 2015 $1,500 WSOP Dealer's Choice champ a winning straight, and vaulting her stack over 100,000.

Meanwhile at neighboring hands, Frank Kassella and Christian Roberts are among recent elminations.

Rheem Doesn't Rip Preflop; Loses More Chips

Level 5

No-Limit Hold'em

Ian O'Hara raised to 1,600 preflop and was called by David Benyamine. Chino Rheem then three-bet to 7,600 and O'Hara was the only caller. With the promising preflop action, nothing happened thereafter as they checked down the {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Diamonds} board.

Rheem tabled the {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}, which O'Hara had beat holding the mighty {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.

"I should have just ripped preflop," Rheem admitted in table chat.

O'Connell Wins Some Off Fuchs and Bach

Level 5

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Carol Fuchs raised on the button to pick up calls from both players in the blinds. Bart O'Connell and David Bach discarded two and so did Fuchs on the first draw. A checked, Bach bet and Fuchs raised in order to pick up two calls. On the second card they all took one card and checked, then repeated the very same action on the draw and betting round.

O'Connell tabled the {9-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{2-} and that won the pot.

Mueller Sits Down for First Hand; Chips Up

Level 5

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Greg Mueller sat down for his first hand of WSOP in 2022 and immediately got involved in the action against Christopher Claassen. They ended up tangling in a small pot in which Mueller bet after the final draw and Claassen paid it off. Mueller tabled the {8-}{7-}{5-}{4-}{3-} and that was good enough to win the pot.

"It's good to be back," Mueller said with a smile on the face.

Barlow Wins Some Off Ashton

Level 5

Seven Card Stud High

Matthew Ashton: {x-}{x-} / {8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{k-Spades} / {x-}
Todd Barlow: {x-}{x-} / {3-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} / {x-}

Matthew Ashton limped in and then called when Todd Barlow completed. One bet each went in after the fourth and fifth street, Ashton then called a bet by Barlow on sixth and seventh. Barlow rolled over the {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for a pair of sixes and Ashton double-checked his cards before sending them into the muck.

"How much do I owe, 9,600?" he inquired with the dealer and tossed in two T-5,000 chips.

Siegel Shows Rheem He's Got It

Level 5

Pot-Limit Omaha

Scott Bohlman raised to 1,500 in the hijack and was called by Chino Rheem in the cutoff and Jordan Siegel on the button.

On a flop of {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, Bohlman checked and Rheem bet 3,000.

Siegel called and Bohlman folded leaving the pot heads up to the turn {10-Spades}.

Both players checked, and on the flush-completing {8-Hearts} river, Rheem checked to Siegel, who bet 5,000.

After some thought, Rheem called and Seigel showed {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades} for a king-high flush and Rheem mucked his cards.

Small Pots Only

Level 5

5 Card Draw High

Jake Schwartz raised to 1,500 and Andrew Brown then three-bet to 7,000 from one seat over. Schwartz mulled it over for a few seconds and then sent his cards into the muck.

The game mode then changed with Ryan Goindoo picking the "there will be blood" variant.

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Brown raised to 2,100 and Hye Park defended the big blind. Park discarded one and Brown took two new cards. Park then bet 4,500 and that's all she wrote, because Brown opted to fold.
