Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Farid Jattin
Farid Jattin

Lawrence Wayne in middle position had limped in, after which Farid Jattin made it 4,500 to go on the button. The action folded back to Wayne, who made the call.

On the 5♠6♥J♠ flop, Jattin bet 5,000 chips and his opponent check-called. Jattin sized up to 7,600 on the 5♦ turn and was again check-called.

The 10♥ river was checked down and Wayne showed A♠K♠J♣3♦2♥ for two pair with jacks. Jattin's A♦A♣Q♥J♥4♦ was the better two pair, and his pocket aces won him the pot.

He Predicted That Turn Card

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

An early position player raised to 3,500 and was called by Shaun Deeb on the button, and the player in the small blind.

After the small blind checked, the initial raiser put out a bet of 12,500 on the K♠4♥2♥ flop. Only Deeb made the call.

Before the dealer peeled the turn card, Deeb's opponent called for the three of spades to come out. Lo and behold the turn was the 3♠. Upon seeing this, the early position player potted it. The bet was for Deeb's remaining 31,000. Deeb elected to fold his cards and his opponent was kind enough to show A♠A♣5♣ as he dragged in the pot.

The 10♠ river was checked by both players and Matusow turned over A♠5♠4♣3x2x to take down the pot with a flush.

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Sean Winter raised to 2,600 and the player in the big blind made the call.

The big blind player check-called a bet of 2,500 from Winter on the K♥8♣6♦ flop to see the A♠ come on the turn. This time the big blind check-called a bet of 7,000 from Winter.

On the J♠ river, Winter bet enough to put the big blind player all in. It didn't take long for the big blind to make the call for his remaining 20,000 chips. Winter showed A♣A♥9♠7♣5♠ to win the high. The big blind had 10♦9♦6♠4♥2♦ to take the low., resulting in a chop pot.

Josh Arieh was seen taking his seat at a nearby table.

Level 6 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Nick Guagenti went to the flop of 5♠4♠5♣, along with two other opponents. With 17,000 chips in the pot, Guagenti made a bet of the same amount from the big blind, worth most of his stack.

His opponents in early position and middle position quickly folded, and Guagenti stayed in contention on Day 1.

Ryutaro Suzuki was also seated at this table, playing a six-figure stack.

Level 5 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

In a limped pot, Ben Lamb checked out of the small blind to Michael Rocco in the big blind. Rocco then made a bet of 2,400, which Lamb called.

On the subsequent Q♦ turn, Rocco sized up to 7,200, which Lamb check-called yet again.

Another pot-sized bet from Rocco flew in on the 4♦ river, but this time Lamb decided to check-fold and grant the pot to his opponent.

Meanwhile, Shaun Deeb was seen entering the Big O tournament area to take his seat, while Viktor Blom was seen departing.

Erik Seidel in the small blind and Nicholas Davidson in middle position were heads up on a turn of 5♠J♦A♣J♥. Seidel checked to Davidson, who made a bet of 2,500.

Seidel then raised to 10,000 and Davidson made the call. Seidel sized down to 8,000 on the K♠ river.

"Ah, you're milking me!" Davidson exclaimed.

He tossed in a call anyway, and saw that his gut feeling was right as Seidel showed A♠J♣10♣7♣5♦ for jacks full of aces.

"Nice hand," Davidson said as he forfeited a small portion of his gigantic stack.

On another table, Ryan Miller lost the few remaining big blinds he had.
