Jeffrey-invigorates Jeff

Jeff Madsen doubles up
Jeff Madsen doubles up

Jeffrey Lisandro has given Jeff Madsen the double through he's been patiently folding waiting for for most of the level. Small blind vs. big blind, Lisandro found {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} {8-Hearts} and raised, prompting the push-call reaction as Jeff Madsen found {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {9-Clubs}. The board ran out {6-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {8-Spades} {3-Clubs} and the Aces held pushing the 6xWSOP finallist back to 300k.

Racener Doubles to the Chip Lead

It folded around to Joe Serock in the small blind; he raised the pot. The action moved on to John Racener in the big blind; he called.

The flop: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Serock bet out 25,000, but Racener made it 82,000 to go. Serock attempted to reraise but it came up a bit short; he was corrected by the dealer but before that had been rectified Racener had pushed all in and Serock had called.

On their backs.

Serock: {10-Spades}{q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for trip queens with a king kicker
Racener: {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for trip queens with a lower kicker

Turn: {2-Clubs} giving Racener a flush draw

River: {9-Hearts} making Racener a full house

Serock smiled wryly and paid up, his once chip-leading stack reduced to 355,000. Racener meanwhile is back in the lead for we think the first time since the start of Day 3 - he's on over 500,000 now.

Pass the 2BB

No fluctuations of any note in the first half of this level. The players remaining are making decisions quickly, and hands are fairly rapidly circulating, but the action either dies preflop with a simple raise or walk or sees a few board cards and gets no further. It's not peanuts, however, to pick up 24k in blinds if you're a short stack, and Jeff Madsen raising pot did that in the last hand (at the same time signalling a fold would be unlikely if there were any takers).

For the rest, it's Willie Tann who's come out ahead, winning about 50k from John Racener over the course of a few small hands, for example raising his bet on the turn (sb vs. bb) of a {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {7-Clubs} board to take one down, and betting 40k on the river of a {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {8-Spades} {4-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} one to win another. In that latter one Racener had bet 16k on the flop and then shut down and passed quickly to Tann's river bet. Slowly inching upwards in chips, Tann is still bringing up the rear and needs to keep going if he's going to challenge Serock and Lisandro for his second bracelet.

Rich Get Richer, Short Get Shorter

Jeff Madsen is now our official short stack after potting from the small blind and, after a long pause, getting called by chip leader Joe Serock in the big. Madsen checked the {6-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{6-Spades} flop to Serock who bet 32,000, and it was enough to push Madsen off the pot.

Serock - up to 640,000
Madsen - down to 170,000, or 10 and a half big blinds

Break O'Clock

If anyone wants to smoke, though, they're going to have to brave the heaven/purgatory (depending on who you're talking to) of Saturday night in Leicester Square.

Good luck!

No Flops Here

The action at the final table has turned, well, a bit on the slow side. It's not that these seasoned tournament PLO players are not keen to get the chips flying about; it's just that the number of flops, turns etc. to report has fallen to almost zero.

Most recent of the hands that produced zero cards that we can report:

Jeff Madsen raised to 30,000 only to face a reraise to 90,000 from Willie Tann. Madsen folded, and Tann edged back over the 200,000 mark.

Joe Serock: Already Old Hand at 22

Joe Serock: can see movies in 3D
Joe Serock: can see movies in 3D

Joe Serock, who's won the two biggest pots of the last twenty minutes (once raising preflop to 28k then betting 50k on a {4-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} flop and shaking both callers, and once just pushing Willie Tann off a flop) has already a lengthy string of cashes to his name, a good few at WSOP events at which he seems to be regularly last few tabling. Best WSOP result - 2nd in the $2,500 6-max NLHE in 2009, so within cat-swinging distance of World Series jewellery already. Pot Limit Omaha seems to feature pretty highly on his cashes list, so it looks like he's as at home as he appears on this final and will be hard to write off as a bet to take it down, even with Lisandro leading slightly.

Plus, and I quote some dude on the rail (at Serock): "I love how your glasses match the big chips."
