Dunn Chips Up in Very Early Action

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Only one hand has been played thus far in the Paris Ballroom and it included a bigger heads-up pot to the {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades} turn on which Matthew Walko and Tara Dunn invested 75,000 each. They checked the {9-Clubs} on the river and Walko sheepishly revealed the {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} but it was Dunn who had rivered a straight with the {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.

Early Preflop Aggression

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Yong Hui Lim had three-bet to 15,000 over an early position open. In the small blind, Mark Muchnik four-bet to 42,500 to get his day started.

Action folded back to Lim who let his cards go to avoid a big, early confrontation.

Nearby, a player under the gun opened to 5,500. Two seats down, David Fong went for the three-bet to 15,000.

Action folded all the way back to the opener who thought for a bit, then he let his cards go.

Smith Scores Early Knockout

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jorge Deoliveiralopez moved all in from under the gun for 27,000. Elliot Smith, in the hijack, made the call with Deoliveiralopez covered, while the rest of the table got out of the way.

Jorge Deoliveiralopez: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Elliot Smith: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

The two were flipping, but Smith quickly took a commanding lead when he made a set on the {5-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop, leaving Deoliveiralopez drawing thin. When the {5-Clubs} turn gave Smith a full house, Deoliveiralopez was left drawing dead. The {j-Clubs} on the river completed the board, and Smith scooped the pot and scored the early knockout.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action was picked up on the river on a board reading {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. The pot was about 63,000 and Vyacheslav Stoyanov made an overbet of 100,000 from the big blind. Andrew Barfield clicked it back to 200,000 from early position.

Stoyanov thought for several moments before he laid down his hand and Barfield took an early nice pot.

Hands Flops Quads to Stay Alive

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

John Hands started the day with less than 10 big blinds in his stack and got them in within minutes of the resumption of play holding {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. However, he was up against the {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} of Eric Stone.

There was a ten in the window, but it was followed by a queen. However the full flop read {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Spades} giving Hands quads. There was no one-outer for Stone on the {8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} runout and Hands doubled up.

"It was crazy how you saw the ten first," commented a tablemate. "Then the queen and then the final ten!"

JC Tran

Michael Moncek bet 3,500 on the {4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop and JC Tran, sitting on his right, called.

Both players checked the {2-Hearts} turn to see the {10-Diamonds} river.

Tran led for 10,000 and Moncek quickly called.

Tran revealed {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} pocket jacks and Moneck mucked.

Moncek holds one WSOP bracelet while Tran has two and they are likely to clash a lot today sitting right next to each other.
