Lew Moves All In On River

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

All we saw when we arrived at Randy Lew's table was many Orange T 5,000 chips in the pot and action on Lew on a board of {2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}.

Lew moved his remaining chips all in. His opponent Bruno Borges had invested quite some chips. He did not want to risk anymore as he folded. With that pot Lew is in the thick of things with 70,000, while Borges moved down to 65,000.

Khoury Gets the Best of Miller

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Action started on Mazin Khoury and he raised it to 3,200 preflop. A short stacked player with only 200 more than the raise went all in. Action was on Thomas Miller in the big blind and he re-raised to 9,600. Action fell back on Khoury and he raised again to 20,000. Miller did not have to worry about the all in player but did have to worry about Khoury, as Knoury had over 100,000 and could put Miller into a hole if they got the money all in and Miller was to lose. Miller just flat called and the they saw a flop.

{10-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. Miller checked. Khoury bet out 12,700 which was enough to get Miller to fold. Miller did not like it when Khoury showed his hand of {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} as Miller had been bamboozled. Miller won the side pot but lose the main pot to the short stack player who had {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. The player hung on to the lead with his pair of aces to triple up.

With the outplay by Khoury he had 120,000, while Miller still had a lead with 180,000.

De Zeeuw is Back to Being a Short Stack

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Olaf de Zeeuw started off so well today but couldn't hang on to those chips for long. De Zeeuw lost a big pot with ace-jack against ace-fie pre flop all in and lost another one with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} all in pre flop against {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} just moments ago. That last pot set him down 47,200 in chips which leves him with just 22,000.

Pleticha Makes a Good Call

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Antoine Saout, who started the day with the chip lead, opened to 3,200 under-the-gun. His only caller was Tomas Pleticha in middle position. The two went heads up to the flop: {2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. Saout made a continuation bet of 3,000 and Pleticha threw in the three 1,000 chips as well. Both players checked on the {6-Spades} turn and the dealer burned and put the river in place: {9-Spades}. Saout made it 6,200 and after some thinking, Pleticha made the call.

Saout showed his {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} but that was not good enough to take down the pot. Pleticha tabled {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and took down the pot. Saout won't have the opportunity to get those exact chips back from Pleticha since the table broke immediately after.

The Shove Works for Ziskin

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

From middle position Alexander Ziskin just shoved all in for about 29,000. Two positions down the cut off made the call all in. Action folded to the big blind who thought about it for a second, before eventually folding. Ziskin showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and was way ahead of the cut off's {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

After the turn the cut off was already drawing dead: {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{J-Hearts} | {5-Diamonds} | {4-Hearts}. The player shook his head and then wished the table good luck. Ziskin is back in it and almost has an average stack now.

Miller Gets Double Knockout to Take Massive Chip Lead

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

In quite a cooler Robert Nemeskerikiss from Henderson, Nevada raised it up to 3,200. A player in the small blind went all in for just shy of 13,000. Action was on Thomas Miller from East Hampton, New York and he went into the thinking tank. He asked Nemeskerikiss how much he was playing. After getting the count Miller too moved all in having Nemeskerikiss easily covered.

Nemekerikiss made the call and the cards were flipped with a side pot for the two bigger stacks.

Miller: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Nemekerikiss: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Short Stack Opponent: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Miller was in good shape to get the double knockout. The flop was good to him with the {4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Spades}. The turn as well with the {5-Clubs}. The river officially made Miller the chip leader when he got the double knockout with the {8-Hearts}. Miller lead the pack with 203,000.

Le Chops

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

A player in middle position opened the pot with a race to 3,000. Right behind him, Nam Le in the hijack counted his chips, put them all together in one big stack and sled them forward. Le was all in for about 10,000 and the cut off, button and both blinds quickly folded. The initial raiser was interested though and called instantly.

Le turned over two beautiful red queens. His opponent had the other two queens though and after a rainbow pot there were guaranteed to split the blinds and antes. {3-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{J-Clubs} | {5-Hearts} | {6-Diamonds} on the table and both got a little bit richter.
