Schutten Shoves Over Cohen's Bet

Level 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Johan Schultz-Pedersen opened under the gun to 15,000. Jonathan Cohen called him from the button and Brek Schutten defended out of the big blind.

Schutten and Schultz-Pedersen checked the 985 flop to Cohen, who bet 21,000. Only Schutten called.

The turn J saw Schutten check again. Cohen continued the aggression and put out a bet of 35,000 with about 95,000 chips behind. Schutten then check-raised all-in for Cohen's remaining chips. After doing a little inventory, Cohen tossed his hand into the muck

Jozoff Drops One to Plausinaitis; Still Flying High

Level 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Michael Jozoff has had a much better time on his second bullet, turning the 150,000 starting stack into 1,200,000 by the final level of Day 1.

He was in the mix again, opening to 12,000 from the cutoff. The button folded before Paulius Plausinaitis three-bet to 48,000 from the small blind. The big blind got out of the way and Jozoff called.

Plausinaitis made a continuation bet on the J62 flop and Jozoff quickly open-folded his A8. Plausinaitis flashed an A and took in the pot.

Ponakovs Jams on Matakis

Level 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Brek Schutten opened to 15,000 from the cutoff before Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 48,000 from the small blind. WSOP Player of the Year Ian Matakis was in the big blind and reraised to 84,000. Schutten got out of the way and then Ponakovs called.

Ponakovs check-jammed for around 190,000 over a bet of 20,000 on the 863 flop. Matakis wasted little time in folding.

Wilson Takes From Schwecht

Level 8 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Tobias Schwecht opened the button and then called after Brandon Wilson three-bet from the small blind.

The two players saw a flop of J64. Wilson checked and Schwecht opted to check behind.

On the board-pairing J turn Wilson checked for a second time. Schwecht now put out a bet of 65,000. This was met by a check-raise to 155,000 by Wilson. Schwecht didn't take long to release his holding and forfeit the pot to Wilson.
