Danzer Dragging Pots
Level 7
: 400/800, 1,200 ante
George Danzer hasn't played much at the WSOP since winning Player of the Year in 2014, with no cashes since 2016. But his familiar mohawk has been spotted in the field today, and he's already showing no signs of rust.
In his last hand, a player raised to 2,000 from under the gun and fellow former Player of the Year Tom Schneider called on the button. Danzer came along from the big blind and took two, as did Schneider.
First to act after the draw, Danzer put out a bet of 5,000 and both his opponents quickly mucked.

Steve Zolotow:

Schwartz Applying Pressure
Level 7
: 400/800, 1,200 ante
Tom McCormick raised to 3,000 from the button and Jake Schwartz called in the big blind.
Schwartz drew one while McCormick stood pat. First to act, Schwartz put out a big bet of 10,500. McCormick had an anguished look on his face as he considered the call, while Schwartz sat calmly drinking from his water bottle.
McCormick eventually slid his cards back to the dealer and Schwartz, last year's runner-up in this event, took in the pot.
