No Goodbye Yet for Melert

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Shane Melert three-bet jammed the last 4,600 and the initial raiser called with the 109. Melert was ahead with the AJ and the K52 flop took away some outs for his opponent.

On the 9 turn, Melert fell behind but he got there with the 3 river.

Melert already knocked the table in defeat and was ready to leave, when Shachar Haran asked "what are you doing bro?"

Melert glanced back at the board and gritted "I thought I had diamonds".

With the board reading 2KJ action checked to Jorstad. He bet 2,200, getting a call from the big blind and a fold from the early position player.

The 9 turn saw the big blind check again. Jorstad, undeterred by the earlier call, pushed 6,600 into the middle. His opponent thought for quite some time before making the call.

The big blind checked one more time after the K river completed the board. Jorstad did not immediately check back but after tanking did tap the table to take down the pot holding KQ.

Mullen's Short-Stack Adventure Ends

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Anthony Mullen, who had been nursing a short stack throughout most of the day, stopped by the PokerNews desk to report how he was eliminated from the Main Event.

He had three-bet preflop to 17,000 and received two callers. He then put the rest of his 9,000 chips in on the Q510 rainbow board and was called by one opponent.

Anthony Mullen: KK All in
Opponent: AxQx

The turn bricked out, but the river brought an Ax to end Mullen's Main Event run on Day 1.

Saliba Gives it Up

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On the 989Q6 board there were around 28,000 chips in the pot when Johnny Woolen fired a bet of 16,500 on the river into Justin Saliba. It seemed Saliba had a difficult decision and took his time before eventually letting his hand go.

Jack Roser is sitting at the same table and has grown his stack to around 230,000, which makes him one of the chip leaders in the room.

Simpson Makes the Right Call

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Three ways on a 6Q10 flop, Conrad Simpson checked in middle position, the player in the hijack checked, and the player on the button checked.

Action checked to the button on the 6 turn and he bet 700. Both Simpson and the hijack called.

The K completed the board and Simpson led out for 8,500. The player in the hijack raised to 29,000, which got a quick fold from the button to put the action back on Simpson, who went deep into the tank.

"You either have quads or tens-full?" Simpson mused as he contemplated his decision.

Simpson eventually put in a single chip to indicate a call and his opponent said, "Good call," prompting Simpson to reveal A9 for the nut flush.

His opponent mucked and Simpson collected the large pot.
