Opponent Makes Fatal Error

Jonathan "Fatal Error" Aguiar had led out for 1,000 on a {8-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} flop only to be raised to 3,000 by his opponent. Aguiar made the call then checked the {J-Hearts} turn where he saw a 5,000 chip bet fired at him. Aguiar made it 13,000 and his opponent thought for a minute before moving all-in, Aguiar instantly called with {Q-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} only needing to fade a ten or eight since his opponent flipped {10-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}.

The river was the {7-Spades} and Aguiar shipped a huge pot, he's up to 57,000.

Showing the Pros Your Hand

After a player limped in from middle position, November Niner Joseph Cheong raised to 1,025. Ted Lawson flat-called from the cutoff seat and then Erik Seidel called from the button. The limper also made the call and play was four-handed to the flop.

The flop came down {J-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts} and the limper wasted no time in firing out 3,000. Cheong, Lawson and Seidel all folded and the limper tossed over the {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Not so sure you want to give these guys knowledge of what you held, sir.

Kravchenko Increases

Pierre Canali raised from under the gun to 700. Scott Fischman called from middle position and Alexander Kravchenko called from the big blind.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Kravchenko was up first. He checked and action moved to the preflop raiser. Canali fired 1,200 and Fischman called behind him. Kravchenko also called.

The turn brought the {2-Spades} to the board and all three players checked to see the {4-Diamonds} added on the river. Kravchenko fired out 2,500 and both of his opponents folded. Kravchenko moved to 37,000 in chips with this pot.

Time To Open The Floodcates

Daniel "Jungleman12" Cates hasn't got off to the best of starts but he just took a small pot off November Niner Fillipo Candio. The latter opened to 800 and Cates immediately 3-bet next to him to 2,100. Candio made the call but then quickly check-folded to a 2,000 bet on the {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} board. Cates showed the {6-Diamonds} with a little grin.

Schulman Cold Four-Bets

We haven't heard too much from Nick Schulman today, but he's certainly not someone who can be overlooked. Despite his reputation in other games, he's still a dangerous entity at No Limit Hold'em and could definitely mount an assault on this year's Main Event if the cards run away.

After somewhat of an inactive period, Schulman jumped up a gear, cold-four betting raises of 700 and 2,300 to 5,800 from the small blind. The initial raiser folded under the gun, as did Faraz Jaka one seat along.

Schulman is currently hovering around his starting stack with 28,000.

Sorel Has Gone Mizzing

Simon Persson opened to 700 from middle position, and action came to Sorel Mizzi. From the cutoff seat, he three-bet to 2,100, and his opponent promptly reraised to 5,700. After a good soak in the think tank, Mizzi moved in for just shy of 30,000, and Persson snap-called with the covering stack. And the dominating hand:

Persson: {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Mizzi: {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}

The flop was blank, and a king on the turn left Mizzi drawing dead. The queen on the river just added a little insult on the way out the door, Mizzi's Main Event cut short on Day 1a. Persson has no intentions of leaving, and his stack of 74,000 should keep him around here for a while.
