Some Chip Updates

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Team Cordeiro Cash Out

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action was picked up on a flop reading 96A with three players in the hand. Tom Verbruggen of Team Hilberts had opened the betting on this street to 12,000. Next to act Gary Cordeiro of Team Cordeiro then shoved for 96,000, and Donald Maloney of Team Maloney snap-shoved over the top, causing Verbruggen to get out of the way.

Gary Cordeiro: AJ All in
Donald Maloney: 99

Both players improved to a boat on the 66 runout, but it was Maloney's nines full that took down the pot, and sent Team Cordeiro home.

Golden Nugget pulled the plug on a $1,200 buy-in, $1 million guarantee after the Grand Poker Series tournament had already begun Wednesday morning.

The Las Vegas card room would inevitably cancel the tournament and refund all players after receiving criticism from those who'd entered and expected to be playing for a seven-figure prize pool.

PokerNews spoke with the poker room's Director of Poker Operations, Joel Garcia, and a player who entered the tournament, David Mcconachie, to find out what happened.

Team Deeb Scoops the Pot

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Quirin Heinz from Team Heinz opened under the gun to 12,000 and got two callers: Elizabeth Harrisson from Team Deeb on the button and Jared Jaffee from Team Jaffee in the big blind.

The flop showed A25. All three players checked to see the turn 9. Jaffee bet 15,000. Heinz called. Harrisson looked at her cards and reraised all in for her remaining stack of 58,000. Jaffee quickly moved away. Heinz decided to call.

Elizabeth Harrison; 99 All in
Quirin Heinz: KK

The river showed Q. Harrison took down the pot with a set of nines, not ready yet to leave.

Marx' Hand Holds

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Kunihiko Sakamoto of Team Shinohara opened the action to 10,000 from middle position, and Daniel Marx of Team Mills flatted next to act. Julien Mayeux of Team Dehaye then ripped in his stack for the second hand running, for a total of 134,000. Sakomoto got out of the way, but Marx called quickly and flipped his cards.

Julien Mayeux: AK All in
Daniel Marx: 1010

The board ran out nice and low for Marx, as he retained an overpaid on 96846. Sakamoto got up and went over to his teammate, seemingly annoyed that he had folded. He announced that he'd let go of ace-queen, but didn't mention the suit.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Four Aces

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Aaron La of Team Wo found himself all in and at risk, against a hand that had him drawing slim preflop. The hand belonged to Ichun Chiu of Team Chiu

Aaron La: A10 All in
Ichun Chiu QQ

La's had improved monumentally on the A5A flop, and as if that wasn't enough, the A turn gave him the stone cold nuts, with no risk of being downgraded. The 3 river was inconsequential, and his double up was secured.
