Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jimmy D'Ambrosio
Jimmy D'Ambrosio

Jimmy D'Ambrosio's stack continues to grow late in the night and he's now nearing half a million.

There was a raise to 5,000 and both John Dolan called from the hijack and D'Ambrosio from the big blind.

On the {j-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, the action checked to Dolan and he fired out 6,000. Only D'Ambrosio called.

"Me and you Mr. Dolan," he said.

The turn brought the {3-Hearts} and D'Ambrosio took the lead with a bet of 18,500. Dolan hesitated and then conceded the pot.

On the next hand, the player on D'Ambrosios' right opened to 4,500.

"You again?" he said.

D'Ambrosio quickly three-bet to 16,500 and next to act was Casey Carroll. He cold four-bet up to 55,000.

"Apparently he doesn't want us to play," said D'Ambrosio to the original raiser. "All in."

Carroll snap-called but both players were holding pocket aces. The runout changed nothing and they chopped it up.

"See he saved you," said D'Ambrosio to the original raiser.

Meanwhile, Christian Roberts and William Smith have also chipped up in the last few hours.

The orignial raiser folded and action was back to Layne, who went into the tank.

"All-in," Layne announced as he pushed his chips in. Schafer responded by immediately shoving the rest of his chips into the poy and tabling the rockets {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. Layne grimaced as he flippe over his {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} and was no help to Layne and he gave Schafer a full double up.
