Brown Gets Scooped by Rodawig

Level 5 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante
Andrew Brown
Andrew Brown

Omaha Hi-Lo

Heading to the three-way flop of {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} turn, the big blind checked and Andrew Brown bet from under the gun. Eric Rodawig raised in late position and the big blind folded while Brown called. The {q-Spades} turn was check-called by Brown, who checked again the {4-Clubs} on the river.

Rodawig quickly bet and that sent Brown into turmoil. "Do you really have ace-jack-ten-deuce there?" Brown mulled it over for a while and then added "7,200 is the maximum I can lose, right?" The call followed and Rodawig announced nines full to then flash the {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} first. "Show me the ace-deuce," Brown demanded and his wish was granted as Rodawig also rolled over the {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} as well.

"Sorry, I am not good enough to fold there. I kinda just wanted to see to sleep well at night. I had aces with the nut flush draw and even had a king, couldn't figure out what you had there," Brown continued as he sighed and dropped below half the starting stack.

Breaking News: Phil Ivey Closing in on Elusive 11th WSOP Bracelet Tonight

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey

Only one poker player in history — Phil Hellmuth — has reached the 11 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet plateau. On Monday, Phil Ivey could join one of poker's most exclusive clubs.

The for-now 10-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner is currently sitting on a large stack with five players remaining in Event #42: $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em, which slated to play down to a winner tonight.

As it stands, Hellmuth is the record holder with 16 bracelets, followed by Ivey, Johnny Chan, and Doyle Brunson tied at 10.

The $100k was originally scheduled to wrap up with the final table on Tuesday, airing on PokerGO, but PokerGO called an audible and decided to livestream the final table tonight. At the time of publishing, the remaining players were on a dinner break and will come back at 7 p.m. to play it down to a winner, who will receive $1,897,363. Coverage on PokerGO will resume at 8 p.m., along with PokerNews' live reporting updates.

With the blinds at 60,000/120,000, Ivey currently sits at 9,075,000, approximately 75 big blinds, good for second in chips. Aleksejs Ponakovs, an online poker crusher, is the chip leader at 14,450,000 and has been dominating play during Monday's Day 2 session.

Pan First Casualty on Day 1

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

The stack of Qinghai Pan took several hits in the open stages and he never really got anything going. After his latest table move he was down to a mere ten percent of what he started with and chopped once. However, his seat is now empty and the chip leader of Day 1 in this very event in 2021 has become the first casualty in the 2022 edition.
