Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

328 players started today and after three full levels we've already lost 139 players. The starting stacks aren't that deep creating a lot of early action, as play goes on we expect the pace to slow down. The average stack is 7,810 chips.

Level: 4

Blinds: 75/150

Ante: 0

McLean Karr Arrives And Then Departs!

McLean Karr was a late starter today and he was eliminated not too long after.

Player 33/6 raised under the gun and McLean Karr three-bet from the big blind. Player 33/6 moved all-in and Karr called for his remaining 3,300.

Showdown

Player 33/6{A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {4-Hearts}
Karr{K-Spades} {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {9-Clubs}

Board: {5-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {5-Clubs} {3-Hearts}

"Who is that guy? Is he famous?" Asks the triumphant player.

"That's McLean Karr, he has won a bit of money playing poker," I tell him.

"Tell him who I am!" He says.

So McLean if you are reading this, you were beaten by Player 33/6!

O'Shea Wins a Small One From Eames and Vanessa Selbsts Busts

Vanessa Selbst
Vanessa Selbst

We arrived at the Selbst, Eames and O'Shea table and there was an empty space that used to house Vanessa Selbst. We were going to ask John Eames what happened but he got involved in this hand.

Eames raised to 225 from the cut-off and John O'Shea called on the button. The flop was {7-Clubs} {7-Spades} {3-Diamonds} and both players checked. The turn was the {A-Clubs} and Eames bet 400 and O'Shea called. The river was the {10-Diamonds} and both players decided a showdown was the best course of action and it was O'Shea that won the hand.

Showdown

O'Shea{A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {9-Spades}

More Chip Counts

Giannetti Double Up

Matt Giannetti has just found a double up to survive at the beginning of level three. There was a standard raise from the hijack and Giannetti three-bet to 500 from the big blind and his opponent called. The flop was {J-Hearts} {9-Spades} {6-Spades} and Giannetti bet 1,200 and his opponent called. The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Giannetti moved all-in for 1,800 and his opponent called.

Showdown

Giannetti{Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts}
Random Guy{K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {3-Hearts}

Giannetti was a monster favourite and the river didn't change anything so Giannetti doubles and eliminated his opponent at the same time.

Dominik Nitsche Joins a Tough Table

Dominik Nitsche has just been moved onto a tough table that includes WSOP bracelet winners Erik Cajelais, Sam Stein and Joe Ebanks. Lucikly for Nitsche the table is one of tables scheduled to break very soon. The wee german is up to 11,900 after winning this hand.

Erik Cajelais raised to 300 in the hijack seat and Nitsche three-bet on the button making it 900 to play. The blinds folded and Cajelais decided to see the flop. The flop was {A-Clubs} {J-Spades} {5-Diamonds} and a 825 Nitsche c-bet did the trick.

Chip Stacks In Majestic #2

Chad Brown Takes The Lead

Chad Brown
Chad Brown

Chad Brown is sitting at a table with Davidi Kitai and Ana Marquez and since those two still have chips he must have taken them from someone else. Brown has a huge 16,000 stack which is almost four times the starting stack after just two levels.

We asked Chad Brown what the biggest pot was he played and he told us the following. With aces and the nut flush draw he got it in on the flop against a wrap. The pot was over 7,000 chips and even though he didn't need to hit he managed to make a flush.
