Moolhuizen asked for 22,000 on the A river. Kaniowski went into the tank and called but lost to Moolhuizen's set with 22.

Baker & Shaw Battle

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

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 K82 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."

Siginc Doubles; Theuma Flying

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Jake Greenbaum raised from under the gun and Mehmet Siginc defended his big blind.

On the 95x3 flop, Siginc check-jammed for 7,100 over a bet of 1,000. Greenbaum reluctantly called.

Mehmet Siginc: 109All in
Jake Greenbaum: 66

Siginc was ahead with top pair, and doubled up after the 27 runout.

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 2653 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 74. Boguth said he folded kings, to which Theuma complimented the play.

Not Great Success for Sacha Cohen

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Michael Leah opened to 700 from middle position and was called by Bahram Chobineh in the hijack, Mihai Isar on the button and Sacha Cohen in the big blind.

After a misunderstanding about a possible out-of-turn action, all four players checked the 654 to see the J on the turn, which was checked until Isar bet 1,500. Cohen however check-raised to 6,300 and Isar was the only player to call.

Cohen continued for 12,000 on the K river. Isar quickly called with K6 for two pair and caught Cohen with 76.

It didn't take long for Boloqui to four-bet to 9,800. Meftahi quickly folded, and Simon eventually folded as well.

Ten Haven's Block Bet Confuses Zela

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Gazmend Zela raised from under the gun and Duco ten Haven defended his big blind.

On the A75 flop, Ten Haven check-raised to 2,500 over a bet of 500, and Zela responded by three-betting to 9,000. Ten Haven called.

The 7 turn checked through to the Q river, where Ten Haven bet 200. This bemused Zela, and he looked to the dealer for confirmation that the bet was really a big blind. He made it 12,000 and Ten Haven quickly folded.
