Chopping Things

Ben Boyd raised to start the action, and Daniel Alaei came along from the big blind.

The flop brought {4-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {K-Clubs}. Alaei fired out into the pot, and Boyd came right along.

Fourth street brought the {7-Hearts}. Alaei bet once more, and Boyd called, putting himself all in.

Showdown
Alaei: {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {8-Clubs}
Boyd: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}

The river card brought the {10-Spades}, and the pot is split. Alaei's seven-six takes the low, and Boyd gets the high with his set of kings.

Boyd Can't Get Half

Annie Duke came in with a raise, and both Daniel Alaei and Ben Boyd made the call, Boyd from the small blind.

The flop came out {5-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs}. Boyd and Duke checked, and Alaei put out a bet. Boyd check-raised, Duke folded, and Alaei called the extra bet.

The turn was the {K-Spades}. Boyd fired another bullet, and Alaei raised to 160,000. Boyd called all in for a total of 150,000, and Alaei got a small rebate with Boyd now at risk.

Showdown
Alaei: {A-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}
Boyd: {A-Hearts} {2-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {10-Spades}

Both men were set to chop up the low half, and Alaei was ahead for the high. The river was a {6-Hearts}, a blank as far as Boyd was concerned, and he will only get one quarter of this pot.

Wheel Good

Ben Boyd raised from UTG and Tom Koral called from the BB to see a {2-Clubs} {5-Spades} {8-Diamonds} flop. Koral check-raised Boyd all in and he called.

Boyd {A-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}
Koral {A-Diamonds} {4-?} {8-?} {9-?}

The turn brought an {A-Clubs} and river {K-Hearts}. The wheel was good for Boyd to scoop the pot and double up.

Updated Chip Counts

Scott Clements - 1,595,000
Daniel Alaei - 845,000
John Monette - 845,000
Daniel Negreanu - 685,000
Tom Koral - 500,000
Ben Boyd - 400,000
Annie Duke - 305,000
Greg Jamison - 265,000

Clements has nearly a two-to-one chip lead over his nearest competitor. In that second spot, John Monnette and Daniel Alaei are locked in a dead head.

Alaei Grabs Some Chips

John Monnette raised to open the pot, and both Tom Koral and Daniel Alaei called.

The board would run out {8-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {J-Spades}. Alaei bet each street, with Koral ducking out on the flop. Monnette stayed around until the river though, eventually folding to the final bet.

Break! GO!

The broadcast team needed to take a three-minute break for commercials, and you should have seen the mass exodus. As soon as they got word, Negreanu and Clements took off in an all-out sprint to the bathroom. They nearly knocked each other over a couple times as they bolted right through the ropes and out the door.

Seemingly too soon after that, Negreanu came charging back into the arena at full gallop, with Clements hot on his heels. Negreanu may have won, but it's only because he didn't bother to zip up his fly before returning to the table. He apologized to the spectators as he took care of that little detail, and we should be back in action very shortly.

"Did you guys wash your hands?!" someone yelled from the rail.

"Of course," said Negreanu. "You can smell them!"

Double Scoop Duke

John Monnette raised from EP and Annie Duke called from the BB before a {4-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {6-Spades} flop came down. Duke check-called a bet and then moved all-in on the {K-Clubs} turn to which Monnette called.

Duke {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {7-Clubs}
Monnette {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {3-?} {4-?}

The river didn't change anything, and Duke scoops the pot and doubles through.

Daniel on Daniel Violence

Daniel Alaei raised, and Daniel Negreanu called from the big blind. The flop came {9-Hearts} {J-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. Negreanu checked, then called a bet from Alaei.

The turn card was the {6-Diamonds}, and Negreanu took the lead with a bet of his own. Alaei called, and it was off to the last card, the {5-Spades}. Negreanu bet again, and Alaei called him down.

Showdown
Alaei: {A-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {8-Spades}
Negreanu: {A-Spades} {3-Spades} {4-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

Negreanu took the high half with his sixes up, while both men shared the low, sending just one quarter of the pot to Alaei.
