With two bracelets in the past three years here at the WSOP, Greg Mueller is no stranger to this competition. Mueller who boasts over $1,871,599 in tournament winnings is a force to be reckoned with. Recently we found him in the Pavilion Room getting involved in a hand.
With a flop spread across the middle of the felt, Mueller bet out 650 from the cut off after his opponent checked in early position. The early position player made the call and both players were granted access to a turn.
After the rattled of the deck both players opted to check.
A river seemingly woke up Mueller's opponent who bet out 1,300. Mueller made the call fairly quickly. The player in early position then flipped over for two pair. Mueller then flipped over for a weaker two pair. After the hand Mueller playfully told his opponent that he probably could have gotten more out of it.
Team PokerStars Pro and Mexico native Angel Guillen is in the field today. Guillen burst onto the poker scene back in 2009 when he finished 2nd in a No Limit Hold'em event at the WSOP and then took down his first bracelet in another Hold'em event a mere ten days later.
Last week, Guillen scored an impressive 2nd place finish at the LAPT Punta del Este Main Event which earned him $126,240 in prize money. Guillen also was the victor in a remarkably dramatic hand from that event that tripled him up and allowed him enough chips to make the final table.
When we last caught up with Guillen, he was staring down at a board of and a bet of 525 from his opponent. Guillen flipped chips off of his stack and flicked them into the center of the table. Unfortunately for Guillen, his opponent flipped over for queens full of tens and Guillen mucked his hand. That being said, Guillen is still sitting on a more than solid stack of 6,250.
Matt Jarvis is probably most well known for being part of the 'November Nine' in 2010. He took 8th in that event to finish with a score over $1 million. Last year he proved his worth as a professional poker player when he took down the WSOP bracelet in the $5,000 No-Limit Holdem Six-Max event. He has had a great start to this event, despite seeing him recently lose a pot.
It started when Yevgeniy Timoshenko opened the pot to 225 preflop. The player directly on Timoshenko's left made the call, along with Jarvis in the big blind.
The flop would see Jarvis check and Timoshenko throw out a bet of 350. The player on his left again called and this time Jarvis check-raised to 950. It was too much for timoshenko, but the other player made the call.
The on the turn would see Jarvis slowly bet 1,100. Another call from his opponent and a would peel off on the river. This time Jarvis flicked out a stack of 5,000-denomination chips - enough to put his opponent all in.
The player gave a bit of a shrug and then threw all his chips in. At this point Jarvis turned over for a turned flush. "What do you have?" the man asked, apparently unable to see Jarvis' hand. When the table obliged with an answer, the man confidently turned over his for the nut flush.

Vanessa Rousso has clearly been busy off the felt, but it is time to play some poker for the Team PokerStars Pro.
We may have just witness Vanessa Selbst take down a pot, but she still sits with a pittance of what she started the day with. In the hand we saw, Selbst and one opponent committed 200 chips each on a flop. The on the turn saw Selbst fire out a bet. It was too strong for her opponent and she took down the small pot. She still has plenty of work to do though, we will let you know how she ends up doing.
