Multiple WSOP bracelet winner John Juanda has been eliminated in the last level of the day. We didn't see the hand but have been told that Juanda held against the of Neil Willerson with Juanda hitting on the flop. Somewhere on the turn or the river a queen popped up and Juanda went from a big lead to dust.
Neil Willerson just raised to 26,000 and Dan Smith decided to three-bet to 59,000. Vanessa Selbst, who was sitting directly to his left, opted to four-bet to 104,000 with 270,000 behind. Willerson folded his cards and Smith stood up to take a good look at Selbst stack. "I'm all-in", he said around ten seconds later and Selbst folded her cards. Smith has been riding a roller coaster today but so far it doesn't seem to hurt him as he's back up to over the average stack.
Jacob Bazeley has taken the chip lead and the victim in the proceedings was Eric Andersen. Our attention was drawn to the table by the noise from the Bazeley rail. Bazeley had sitting in front of him and a big smile on his face. At the other end of the table Eric Andersen was sullen with sitting in front of him. The board was and we believed Andersen had opened, Bazeley had defended his big blind and then all hell broke loose on the flop. Bazeley faded the diamond on the river and now has 820,000 chips. Andersen meanwhile is left with 10,000 chips.
On a board John Juanda just bet 85,000 from middle position into Vanessa Selbst who was in the hijack. Selbst counted out the call, pulled back the chips, and eventually made the call. The river was the and both players checked. Juanda showed after which Selbst tabled the winner, .
Selbst is back up to 475,000 while Juanda is in real danger with just over 12 big blinds left.
Vanessa Selbst raised to 20,000 in the cutoff and Michael Kaufman moved all-in from the small blind. Selbst asked for a count and after the dealer confirmed that it was 121,000 she made the call.
