Templeman On A Tear

Phil Toogood

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Andre Templeman is making moves trending him to the top of the leaderboard.

In the latest hand, he squeezed from the big blind to 8,000 versus the open from John Racener and call from the small blind player. Racener called and the small blind got out of the pot.

Templeman stood pat and Racener drew one, but after Templeman bet 15,000 and Racener peeled his cards, his drawing card didn't help him as he quickly mucked. Templeman, who was on 35,000 chips not too long ago, now moves into the top five stacks.

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

After multiple hands between the two, Mike Gorodinsky fell to Darren Elias.

We were four ways when Gorodinsky had 1,700 chips in the middle on the button, the small blind had called and Elias had raised from the big blind to 10,000. Bradley Anderson in the cutoff called the raise, before Gorodinsky jammed all-in for his last 43,000.

The small blind folded and Elias put all his red 5,000 chips in the middle, at least 100,000 in chips. Bradley Anderson then let out an expletive before letting his hand go.

Elias stood pat and Gorodinsky drew one. ''Good luck'', said Elias before showing his . Gorodinsky shook his head as he peeled his cards and then mucked as he didn't improve enough to beat Elias.

Cary Katz just sat down at the table as the action unfolded.
