Kakhmazov Dispatched

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Down to last 1,325, Nadar Kakhmazov shoved from the button over a raise to 1,000 from a player in the hijack. Nobody else joined the contest, and Kakhmazov's opponent threw in one more chip, calling.

Nadar Kakhmazov: {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Kakhmazov saw he was a favorite and looked to his left-hand neighbor: "Good, bro," he shouted in excitement.

Both players caught a piece on the {6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop, with Kakhmazov drawing for a flush, trying to avoid his opponents' open-ender. The {A-Spades} turn was safe for the Russian bracelet winner, but the {10-Spades} river ended Kakhmazov's chances at taking down another $5,000 event here at the 2017 WSOP.

He offered, "Good luck," to the table before leaving the tournament room.

Heath Has Heaps Already

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

After a {4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{a-Diamonds} flop, Ben Heath bet 1,800 on the button when two players checked to him. Both Joe Serock, in early position, and Jan Schwippert, a couple of seats over, put in calls. On the {k-Spades} turn, Heath barreled again for 4,800. This time, only Serock called. The river was the {9-Diamonds}, and Serock checked. Heath dropped in enough to put him all in, and Serock snap-mucked.

Berkey Over Ladouceur

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Three ways to the {7-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds} turn, Marc-Andre Ladouceur bet 6,500 from the small blind. Cutoff Matt Berkey was next to act, and he paused for a moment before raising to 17,500. Berkey's left-hand opponent still looked to be interested in capturing the pot, but eventually laid it down.

Ladouceur was also tempted, asking the dealer about the size of the raise. Berkey remained stoic, and Ladouceur let his hand go.

Waxman Heads to Dinner with a Nub

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Matt Waxman bet 1,500 on a board of {k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{j-Hearts} in the cutoff, and the big blind put in a T5,000 chip and apparently said he was all in. However, the players agreed the chip had hit the felt before the all-in announcement. The player trying to jam vehemently protested this, but the supervisor who was called over ruled it was a call.

On the {5-Hearts} river, Waxman folded to a shove.

"I didn't have any outs anyway," he said. "But when the chip hits first, it's a call."
