Two New Entries on Table 112

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

Limit Hold'em

Naoya Kihara and Jens Lakemeier joined the fray and both sat down on table 112 without being involved in any of the major action so far. The only somewhat notable hands from their table in Limit Hold'em featured an under the gun raise by Ali Eslami and picked up a caller in Shaun Deeb out of the big blind. The {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop was checked and Deeb bet the {5-Clubs} turn to force a fold.

Eslami then defended the big blind against Scott Seiver's button raise and check-folded the {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.
