Alfred Tellenbach opened to 600 from middle position and was called by David "ODB" Baker from the hijack. Carl Shaw three-bet to 3,500 from the button and only Baker called.
On the K♣8♦2♠ flop, Baker check-raised to 8,500 over a bet of 2,600. Shaw three-bet to 15,000 and then Baker quickly reraised to 38,500. Shaw thought for a moment before mucking his hand.
"Flop eights?" asked Shaw. "That's how it'd appear," replied Baker. "That would be the logical hand."

On one table over, WSOPE Event #1 winner Corel Theuma had already doubled his starting stack, and was looking to build it up even more.
With around 12,000 in the pot, on the 2♦6♣5♣3♦ flop, Theuma checked form the big blind before Michael Boguth fired out 5,100 from the cutoff. Theuma made it 17,800, sending Boguth into the tank.
"Can you beat two pair? asked Theuma, to which Boguth denied. The latter ended up folding, and Theuma showed he had it with 7♥4♥. Boguth said he folded kings, to which Theuma complimented the play.

Cohen continued for 12,000 on the K♣ river. Isar quickly called with K♦6♦ for two pair and caught Cohen with 7♦6♠.
