Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
James Hartigan
James Hartigan

James Hartigan was battling his namesake James Lim in a pot worth around 12,500 chips. The players had already arrived on the turn on a board of A♦9♠8♠5♦ and Lim bet out another 4,500. Hartigan made the call and the 2♥ river was dealt.

Lim knuckled the table and Hartigan tabled A♥8♥ in response. His two pair took the pot, providing a profitable first level for Hartigan so far.

On a table with Chris Hunichen and Jesse Lonis, Fedor Holz also sat down after late registering earlier today.

James Vecchio: J♣9♣
Small blind: A♦J♦

The A♠ was of no help to Vecchio, but the K♣ river gave him a flush and he doubled up through his opponent.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A player in early position raised to 2,000 and was called by Francisco Pinho Correia and Brandon Shack-Harris before Takumi Odani, in the cutoff, three-bet to 7,200.

The original raiser tanked for nearly a minute before folding, but Correia and Shack-Harris came along to the 8♥7♠A♠ flop. Both players checked to Odani.

Odani fired out another 5,200 and Correia tanked for several minutes before emerging with a raise to 14,500. Shack-Harris quickly got out of the way, but then Odani began tanking.

Nearly five minutes went off the clock as Odani sat back in his seat, his hands in his pockets, as he considered the decision before mucking.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Ari Engel opened the action to 2,000 from under the gun and it folded to Felipe Espitia who three-bet to 6,400 on the button. The blinds folded and Engel made the call.

The flop came 9♣6♠4♣ and Engel check-called a bet of 5,600 from Espitia. On the K♥ turn Engel checked a second time and Espitia sized to 13,000, which Engel called.

The 5♠ completed the board and Engel checked again. Espitia took a few seconds before announcing all in for 36,400 and Engel went deep in the tank. After close to two minutes, Engel folded and the pot was sent to Espitia without showdown.

Edward Tan limped in the small blind before Scott Hempel checked his option in the big blind.

Tan checked on the 2♦8♣K♦ flop and then called after Hempel led out for 800.

Action checked through the 2♥ turn to the Q♥ river at which point Tan announced a bet of 1,200. Hempel wasted little time in folding to keep Tan, a WSOP circuit ring winner, chipping up.

Carly Gorman, a teacher at Poker Power, a company that focuses on teaching women to play poker, was in the big blind and faced a raise from a late position player to 1,800 and she made the call.

The flop came 3♠9♣3♥ and Gorman checked and the late position player put out the continuation bet of 1,600. Gorman had other ideas and raised to 5,000 and received a call.

On the turn 5♣ Gorman came out firing with a bet of 4,500 and got the fold and the pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Phil Ivey is sitting in the Red section and he is at a table that is seeing plenty of action. In the latest pot, Istvan Birizdo raised to 1,800 from early position, and Jonathan Hilton three-bet to 5,400 from the button. Christian Barr then cold-called from the small blind before Ivey folded his big blind.

Birizdo came along as well and a flop of 2♠3♣Q♠ was spread. The action checked to three-better Hilton, who continued with a bet of 6,000. Both of his opponents made the fold and Hilton raked in a nice three-way pot.

Brad Sailor and Harish Ananthapadmanabha went heads-up on a board of 9♣9♥3♣4♥ when Sailor, in the hijack, bet 4,700.

Ananthapadmanabha called on the button to see the Q♦ river, where Sailor fired out another 7,000. Ananthapadmanabha quickly called and Sailor turned over Q♣10♣ for the flush draw that became two pair on the river.

Ananthapadmanabha mucked his hand and got up from his seat, taking a few steps away from the table to collect himself as Sailor took the pot.
