Jeremy Harkin has a few supporters here on the rail that have drawn the attention of the cantankerous David "Devilfish" Ulliott. Ulliott opened for 32,000 and was called by Harkin. Ulliott tried another 30,000 on a flop of . Harkin called again.
Both players checked the turn. Devilfish also checked the river, prompting Harkin to bet 55,000. After thinking about his decision for about a minute, Devilfish called. Harkin asked if Ulliott had two pair as he showed down, , the nut low and a pair of aces. Ulliott said he had red double-suited kings and mucked, drawing applause from Harkin's supporters.
"Well that got all the f***ing monkeys clapping, didn't it," remarked Ulliott dryly.
We arrived to see a flop reading and David Nowakowski betting pot. Perry Green made the call.
They saw a turn, but not before Nowakowski had gone all in blind for his last 60,000. After a moment, Green made the call.
Nowakowski:
Green:
River:
Nowakowski took three quarters - two pair, jacks and sevens, for the high, and they chopped the low. Nowakowski moved on up to 250,000. Green meanwhile remained a big stack on 555,000.
Erik Seidel started the day in 20th place out of 21 players. He's now threatening to chip up to an average stack with 12 players to go after doubling through Jeremy Harkin. Seidel opened for 40,000, then called all in for 123,000 total after Harkin re-raised. Harkin called with , not the greatest hand to take against Seidel's . Seidel made trip kings on the flop, , then had a relatively easy turn and river with the and . He doubled up to about 250,000.
Dan Shak raised in the hijack, and Joe Ritzie, to his immediate left on the button, reraised. Shak flat-called. There was perhaps 250,000 in the pot by this point.
They saw a flop and Shak immediately announced all in. Ritzie immediately called.
Shak: for a flush draw and a somewhat dodgy low draw
Ritzie: for aces and the nut low draw
Turn: making Ritzie a wheel for the low and Shak a flush for the high
River:
They chopped it up.
"Wow, and I was going to do the stop and go no matter what," drawled Dan Shak, sounding amazingly like Jack Nicholson. "Risky, boy, risky. Gamble gamble gamble."
Nathan Wiesner raised pot and then called all in to a reraise from Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott. On their backs.
Wiesner:
Ulliott:
Board:
It was all looking rather good for Wiesner until the three on the river made Ulliott the wheel to scoop the pot. They shook hands, and it was only after Wiesner had left that he let out an enormous sigh. Devilfish didn't look particularly bothered either way and was up to 475,000.
Perry Green opened for 35,000 pre-flop before Rob Hollink moved in from the button for 89,000 total. Green asked the dealer to pull the 35,000 before making the call with . Hollink's was in trouble but secured the double up by making a full house, . Hollink is up to 196,000.
"Miami" John Cernuto open-shoved in early position and we think that Cam McKinley reraised; either way everyone else folded and Cernuto and McKinley turned the cards over.
Cernuto:
McKinley:
Flop:
"Hold on," said Cernuto to the dealer, "Let me look at the texture."
[Our tired blogging hands leapt for joy as we were granted a few extra seconds to write down all the cards.]
"I need a queen, a six or a jack," Cernuto announced.
Turn: ask and ye shall receive -
River:
They chopped it up and Cernuto stayed in the game.
Sergey Altbregin managed to chop a pot, meaning that he was up to 13,000 when he called all in from the small blind to an under-the-gun raise from Rob Hollink and a pot-sized reraise from Perry Green on the button. Hollink folded, and Green and Altbregin were on their backs.
Green:
Altbregin:
Board:
Altbregin flopped a straight, but Green turned a flush, and as Green took the low as well, the plucky Russian was bust.
Joe Ritzie checked the flop and Sergey Altbregin bet 100,000. Over to Chris Bell, who thought about it for a while before announcing, "I had 240 total, I'm all in."
Ritzie got out of the way, but Altbregin made the call. Bell turned over his cards. Altbregin waited. Said Bell, "I can't do nothing but turn over my cards," which was lost on Altbregin as he speaks a total of zero English. Nevertheless he eventually turned his hand over and they were at showdown.
Bell:
Altbregin:
Turn:
River:
Bell made the wheel to scoop the whole pot. Once the stacks had been counted, it was assessed that Altbregin had Bell covered - by a mere 10,000 chips. Yikes.
