Nakanishi Leads the Silver Section Heading Into Dinner Break

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Horn Busts Piper With Quad Kings Versus Aces Full

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Easily the biggest bad beat of the tournament so far took place at Table 642. Steven Piper had AA on a board of KA4K7, losing to only one holding, and that is the KK that Gary Horn held for quads.

"That's about how my summer's been going," Piper said glumly after taking the tremendous beat as players headed to dinner break.

Smith Fades Polk's "Big Hand"

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Doug Polk raised to 1,500 on the button and was called by Mike Smith in the small blind and the player in the big blind.

Smith led out for 1,600 on the 354 flop and only the big blind called.

Action then checked down on the J turn and 9 river and Smith tabled A4 for a pair of fours. His opponent mucked and Smith added to his stack.

"I just want you to know that I would have made a big hand," Polk said. "And the table feels bad for me."

Liu Returns to a Winner

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Xuan Liu
Xuan Liu

Xuan Liu was just getting back to her seat after the dinner break, citing that the parking lot was extremely busy which caused her to miss a couple of hands. Liu sat down and instantly raised it up to 1,200 in early position. Roberto Betbese defended from the big blind and the dealer fanned the flop of 842.

Betbese checked to Liu who continued with a bet of 1,500 and Betbese called. The A landed on the turn and Betbese check-called another bet of 5,000 from Liu. The river was the 10 and Betbese checked for the final time. Liu put together a bet of 10,000 and Betbese thought for over a minute before making the call. Liu tabled AQ for top pair and that was enough to scoop the pot.
