Hold the Action

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Two levels down, potentially five to go. It's getting to be that tense time of the tournament, and our remaining field has been sent off for a 20-minute break.

Scheduling Notes

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

The big board shows just 78 players left in the WSOPE Main Event right now, and play is progressing rather quickly through the first two levels. The bubble will be arriving shortly, though, and we'd expect to see the big slowdown soon enough. We'd be surprised if we don't get there in the next level.

We need to get down to 16 players for tomorrow's television production, so we're going to play that far tonight if possible. If we're successful, we'll return at 3:00 PM tomorrow. If not, we'll play seven full levels tonight, and the 17+ players who survive will have to return at noon instead.

There are just a couple minutes left in Level 14.

Waxman Doubles with Trip Tens

Matt Waxman

Matt Waxman opened with a raise from early position and Dylan Wilkerson called from the cutoff seat to see the flop come down {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Waxman bet 8,000 and Wilkerson called.

The turn added the {5-Clubs} and Waxman bet 16,000. Wilkerson called again.

The river was the {2-Spades} and Waxman shipped all in for 63,000. Wilkerson tank-called.

Waxman tabled the {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for trip tens and Wilkerson mucked his hand.

John Eames Lifted Up And Then Dropped Back Down

John Eames recently found a much needed double up. There was a raise under the gun for 6,000 and Eames moved all-in for 63,000 holding {A-} {J-}. The board helped Eames out and he was back up to 140,000, then shortly after he lost a 90,000 pot against Chris Moorman and he was knocked down to 95,000.

We Will Crown a New WSOPE Main Event Champion: James Bord Eliminated

Our reigning champion James Bord has been eliminated. We didn't see the hand but we will try and find out the exact details as soon as possible. In the meantime here are some more people with some spare time on their hands.

Weisner Takes Chip Lead

Melanie Weisner
Melanie Weisner

Melanie Weisner just shot herself up to the top of the leaderboard thanks to a river card that was very much in her favor. She and John O'Shea got all the money in on the turn with the board reading {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}. O'Shea held the wheel with the {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and a heart redraw. Weisner held the {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for a set of tens.

The river smacked the felt with the {A-Spades} and gave Weisner the win with a full house. She had O'Shea covered and eliminated him to move to 600,000 in chips, which is currently good enough for the chip lead.

Aghayev checked the flop of {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades} to Arnaud Mattern, who finished 12th in this event last year. He fired 38,500 and then Aghayev check-raised all in. Mattern quickly called with the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} and was ahead of Aghayev's {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}.

Mattern was all in for 142,000 on the flop and successfully doubled after the {5-Clubs} and {8-Hearts} fell on the turn and river.
