Winter's Short Day

Frank Visser

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Sean Winter had gone all in from the small blind for his final few chips, after which three other players checked through the A♥4♠5♦ flop and 2♠ turn.

The big blind then bet 300 on the J♠ turn, which Ross Santos raised to 5,500 in the cutoff. The player on the button folded, as did the big blind.

Winter tabled 8♣7♦ for eight-high and was eliminated from the Main Event as soon as Santos tabled A♠9♠ for the nuts.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

The small blind raised to 600 and Christina Gollins called in the big blind. Gollins then called the small blind's 800-chip bet on the 9♣Q♦3♠ flop before the J♣ emerged from the deck on the turn.

The small blind continued for 900, after which Gollins shoved all in for 3,200. The small blind quickly folded as Gollins chipped up to 24 big blinds.

On another table, Cassandra Yong was eliminated from the tournament with trips over trips.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Three ways on a flop of 4♦6♣5♦, Chance Kornuth checked from the small blind and the player in the big blind checked to Matthew Ledger, who bet 1,100 on the button. Kornuth then check-raised to 3,900, which got a fold from the big blind and a call from Ledger.

Ledger called a 5,800 bet from Kornuth on the 9♥ turn and Kornuth fired 13,000 into the middle after the 8♠ completed the board.

Ledger shoved after a bit of thought, which was enough to put Kornuth all in for 55,600 total.

"This might take a bit, ya'll," Kornuth said, clearly struggling with his decision.

After several minutes, Kornuth said he didn't think he could fold and put in the call while tabling 6♥6♠ for a flopped set of sixes.

Ledger showed Kornuth the bad news as he turned over 7♦7♣ for a rivered straight to eliminate Kornuth early on Day 1d.

"Good luck guys," Kornuth wished his tablemates as he exited the tournament area.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Relayed to PokerNews from Ludovic Geilich's table, Geilich opened to 700 in the hijack and both the cutoff and button called before Nuno Mafra put in a three-bet to 7,700 from the small blind. Geilich clicked it with a four-bet to 13,500, forcing the cutoff and button to fold and Mafra jammed all-in. Geilich had about 35,000 total and made the call.

Ludovic Geilich: AxQx All in
Nuno Mafra: KxKx

Geilich was unable to find an ace as the board ran out 9x3x3x9x8x and he was eliminated.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Pierre Calamusa raised to 1,000 in early position and was called by Paul Quiring on the button. Calamusa then bet 1,500 on the 8♦8♥8♠ flop and 6,000 on the 6♠ turn, being called by Quiring both times.

The 10♦ hit the river and saw Calamusa jam all in for around 60,000 chips. Quiring snap called with 10♠8♣ for flopped four of a kind and Calamusa threw his hand into the muck before leaving the tables

Christian Zetzsche

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With an already big pot brewing to the J♠9♣6♦10♦ turn, Thomas Pomponio bet 22,000 into around 27,000. Sean McDonald went into the tank and called for most of his stack behind. Pomponio then bet 25,000 on the 6♣ river, and McDonald called to get shown the J♣J♥ for jacks full, flashing his A♣A♥ before heading to the rail.

"Easy game," Humberto Brenes chimed in with a smile on his face.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The small blind limped in and Ian Matakis raised to 1,400 out of the big blind.

After it was checked to him on the 4♣3♥9♥ flop, Matakis bet 1,300 and his opponent called.

The J♦ appeared on the turn and both players checked. The small blind bet 3,000 on the Q♣ river and Matakis snap-called. The small blind showed A♦J♥ for a pair of jacks to win the pot.

Kelly Lucas was seen vacating the tournament at another table and has been eliminated from the Main Event.
