Kampanatsanyakorn on Six Digits

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Another player has reached six digits before the start of level six and it is Chane Kampanatsanyakorn. In the latest example hand, he three-bet a raise from Dylan Honeyman and a call by Jeff Lisandro one seat over from 800 to 3,000 out of the big blind. Only Lisandro called and then gave up the {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {2-Spades} flop when Kampanatsanyakorn immediately fired 2,500.

Kampanatsanyakorn Moves To Just Under 100K

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Chance Kampanatsanyakorn has been one of the most active players of Day 1a, and he was back at it in this one against Nicolas Cardyn. Albeit a small pot, Kampanatsanyakorn raked the chips to near the 100,000-chip threshold.

After Cardyn checked the {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop, Kampanatsanyakorn bet 1,300. Cardyn made the call, and the turn delivered the {K-Hearts} to pair the board. Both players checked, and the river was the {A-Hearts}. Both players checked again.

"Jack," announced Kampanatsanyakorn, turning over the {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

Cardyn mucked, and Kampanatsanyakorn won the pot.

Yan Takes on an Octo-Niner

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

[Removed:17] raised to 1,000 from the hijack and Jesse Sylvia called from the cutoff. The button and blinds all folded and it was heads-up action to the {2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop. Yan check-called a bet of 1,200 and then check-called one of 3,500 on the {7-Clubs} turn.

When the {K-Spades} completed the board on the river, Yan checked for a third time and Sylvia bet 6,500. Yan then sprung to life with a check-raise to 21,900, and that was enough to get Sylvia to lay down his hand.

Move Gone Wrong for Nguyen

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Former big stack Thao Nguyen is slipping further after trying to push out an opponent on the {8-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} turn. Nguyen however got called by {Q-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} and had to reveal {7-Hearts} {6-Hearts} for an open ended straight draw. The {8-Spades} was not enough help and Nguyen shipped over more than 10,000 in chips to his table neighbor.
