Watson Wins Flip, Soars Past 50K

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Josh Pollock raised to 2,000 on the button only to see the small blind three-bet to 4,700 and then Mike Watson four-bet all in for 23,100. Pollock then five-bet all in and the small blind mucked.

Watson: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Pollock: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The {J-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop put Watson in control and when the {Q-Clubs} and {7-Diamonds} completed the board, Watson more than doubled to 55,000 chips and is now back in business in the Mixed-Max event.

We caught the action after a flop of {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. Johan Guilbert bet 6,500 and James Woods raised to 16,500. Guilbert moved all in and Woods called for his last 20,000 or so.

Guilbert: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The turn {9-Clubs} sealed it and the {j-Diamonds} river fell as Woods left the tournament area.

Chou Bursts Bubble

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We aren't able to confirm the name of the bubble boy, but he got all of his chips in preflop with {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} versus the {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} of Chou Chou.

The {j-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop was fairly promising for Chou's opponent, but the board completed {9-Hearts} and then {7-Spades}, and Chou's aces were good enough to send the poor player home without any porridge.

Coleman Doubles on the Bubble

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Michael Coleman is up to 52,000 thanks to him winning an all-in coin flip against Charles Robinson.

Robinson had the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} in front of him and Coleman the {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. A final board reading {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} kept Coleman's jacks good, and he doubled his stack at a crucial time of the tournament.

Villamarin Sends His Friend to the Rail

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Carlos Villamarin has sent his friend John Moore to the rail just before the bubble.

"I'm sorry it was you, man," said Villamarin as Moore headed to the exits. He then explained how Moore is his best friend in poker and how they are sharing a house together here in Las Vegas for the WSOP. Let's hope they are still friends, otherwise Villamarin may need a sofa to stay on for the rest of the series!
