Peppermint Hippo Needs Action

Ali Khalil
Ali Khalil
It might be that limit hold'em doesn't provide the action Ali "The Peppermint Hippo" Khalil needs, but in any case he's desperately looking to take side action.

Willing to prop bet almost anything, he has agreed to a small side bet with Craig Bergeron on whether the field totals an odd or even number.

Guzzardi's Dream River

Michael Guzzardi
Michael "TheBigSiCkO" Guzzardi is one of the early leaders in this tournament on the strength of a set on the river. Guzzardi bet 100 chips on the flop into his opponent, who flat-called, and both players checked the turn.

On the river things got a little crazy, raising back and forth until the chips went in. Guzzardi's {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} was good for a bigger set then his opponent's turned set with {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

"Feels Like a Satellite"

Jim Sachinidis, a player renowned for not being "backwards in coming forwards," has stated his dislike of the use of the Crown weekly tournament chip set over the use of the championship chips.

In an effort to protect the integrity of the Main Event, all side events use a different chip set to the one in play in the Main Event. With the championship chips in use in the Main Event, Sachinidis will have to make do with the "satellite chips."

Who's Mixing it Up?
