Adam Owen: XxXx/8♦6♦A♦5♥/Xx
Opponent: XxXx/A♣2♠9♣6♠/Xx
Adam Owen raised and received one call.
Owen bet on third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh street. His opponent called him all the way down to the last round but folded in the face of the final bet to send a healthy pot to Owen and keep the British mixed game specialist's strong start going.
After just one level of play on Day 1, the number of entries has already reached 230 at the time of writing. Last year, this event attracted 361 entries, so there is a good chance that number will be surpassed by the time late registration closes at the end of Level 9.
Brandon Shack-Harris raised and was called by two opponents.
Shack-Harris bet on third and fourth street, receiving two calls on both occasions before slowing down on sixth street. His check prompted a bet from one of his opponents with the other flatting to send the action back to Shack-Harris. He opted to put in a raise, which both of his opponents called.
Action checked to Shack-Harris on seventh street. He fired off a bet and once again received two calls before announcing "straight" to take down the pot.
