Coppola Stewing Again

It's hard to tell who has the momentum right now. It might be Scott Bohlman, who just took down a pot from a rather unhappy Fabio Coppola. Coppola raised, then called Bohlman's preflop reraise. Coppola check-called the whole way on a board of {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {7-Hearts}. At showdown, Bohlman turned up {A-Hearts} {J-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds} to drag the pot with jacks full of aces.

Coppola showed down {A-Spades} {9-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} and remarked that anybody else at the final table would have lost everything on that hand. He's not lost everything -- but with 375,00 chips, doesn't have much left.

Curious

There was a real flurry of activity there for a while, but in the last fifteen minutes the proceedings have unexpectedly stalled. Perhaps they'll pick up again when the limits go up (shortly).

Quite the Exciting Crowd

Usually at these WSOP feature final tables, spectators are allowed into the seating area but are instructed not to crowd the table during particularly dramatic hands. That's not the case tonight. Everyone in the gallery (the Italian contingent that is here in support of Fabio Coppola has grown quite large) is rushing the table during pivotal all-in confrontations.

Currently we count about sixteen players on the floor directly around the table, another dozen or so standing at their chairs and another dozen seated.

Right Back Where We Started

After all that action, we're more or less right back where we started the four-handed portion of this tournament. The last hand -- between Fabio Coppola and Scott Bohlman -- completed the transition.

Bohlman raised preflop and Coppola called. Coppola fired first on a flop of {J-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} and was raised by Bohlman. Coppola called and led out again on the {A-Diamonds} turn. This time Bohlman just called.

The {3-Spades} completed the board and brought one last bet from Coppola. Bohlman called again with {A-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {4-Spades}, a low and two pair for high. Coppola showed down the same low and a nut flush with {A-Spades} {2-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}. That hand gave Coppola three-quarters and left only one-quarter for Bohlman.

Just Like That...

...Derek Raymond is back in the game. Raymond raised Mark Tenner on a flop of {J-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} after Tenner (the preflop aggressor) led out with a bet. Tenner called.

The turn came {4-Spades} and again Tenner led out. This time Raymond just called. The river was the {Q-Spades}, bringing a check from Tenner. Raymond took the opportunity to bet, a bet that Tenner digested for a long time before calling. Raymond turned over quad queens, {Q-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Clubs}, to drag the pot and increase his count back to 540,000.

Raymond Scoops Coppola to Stay Alive

Derek Raymond was all in after just a few quick pre-flop raises. His opponent was Fabio Coppola, who showed down {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}. Raymond's {Q-Spades} {5-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} was in deep trouble.

The flop made a set of aces for Coppola, {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {9-Clubs}. The {4-Hearts} on the turn gave Raymond the slimmest of hopes... which came in with a miracle {7-Hearts} river! Raymond got the whole pot by making a straight to the eight and a 7-6 low.

"How ****ing sick is this pot?" Coppola asked incredulously. Raymond seemed happy just to stack his 280,000 chips.

Raymond on Life Support

Derek Raymond's slipped again, all the way down to 150,000 in just a few short hands. Mark Tenner and Fabio Coppola each got a piece of him. Coppola's piece was the bigger piece, as he led all streets (including calling Raymond's raise on the flop) of a board that came {4-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {A-Hearts}. Raymond folded to Coppola's river bet.

Bohlman Steals Three-Quarters

We didn't expect Scott Bohlman to get three-quarters of the pot when he opened {A-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} at the river of a {8-Spades} {3-Spades} {4-Spades} {7-Spades} {8-Diamonds} board. Bohlman had check-called bets from Derek Raymond the whole way down. The thing is, Raymond showed a similar, but slightly worse, hand as Bohlman's - {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {2-Spades}. Each player showed the nut low, but Bohlman's ace-king just barely out-pipped Raymond's ace-queen for the high.

Add in a couple of small pots after that to increase Bohlman's count back to 575,000. Yes kids, we're into big swings now. Biiiiiiig swings.
