Cameron Bartolotta found himself on the right end of a massive cooler moments ago.
Matt Geen made it 3,500, Bartolotta fired back with a raise to 8,000, Geen four-bet, making it 20,000 and Bartolotta pushed in for some 21,000 more.
Geen made the call with two kings, but Bartolotta had 
.
To add insult to injury for Geen, Bartolotta even managed to make quads on the 
run out.

Pat Tighe was the recipient of Jerry Calvaneso's stack when Calvaneso shoved tens into his aces.
Tighe shot up over the 100,000-chip mark and into a spot among the leaders before giving a little back moments ago.
He joined a chorus of callers of a 3,000 open, but was the only one to call the opener's similar sized c-bet on the 
flop. The aggressor checked the 
turn, but was waiting in the weeds with a check-raise when Tighe bet 11,000, clicking it back to 22,000.
Tighe folded keeping his stack around the six-figure mark.

Dan Wagman made a deep run in the $500 Event #2 Saturday falling just shy of the money.
Today he figures he's due. After a pre-flop raising war with one opponent led to Wagman shipping it in for some 29,000 with 
he said as much.
"That's OK, I'm due to win this," he claimed after getting called down by 
.
The 
flop and 
turn didn't help, but the river proved Wagman prophetic.

Rob Davis, who finished fifth in the first event here at the 2015 Western New York Poker Challenge, appears to have recovered quite nicely from a flush-over-flush debacle that cost him his first bullet in this event earlier today.
He re-entered, doubled up with pocket aces against pocket tens, then got paid off with a set of jacks to earn a stack triple the size of what he started with.
