"I Don't Care What He Has"

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty Nguyen

Scotty Nguyen was in the big blind and appeared to get a bet of about 100,000 called by Robert Mizrachi on {9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}.

"Pair the board," Nguyen said.

Instead, it was the {3-Clubs} hitting.

"I don't care what he has," Nguyen declared. "Two-hundred."

"Gonna bluff off all your chips huh?" Mizrachi mused before folding.

"I have all black cards," Nguyen said as he mucked face down. "None over ten."

Shack-Harris Doubles with the Nuts

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Picked up on the river, Brandon Shack-Harris was all in for 140,000 after Chase Steely fired 62,000. The board read {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Steely paused for a while before tossing in one chip, calling.

Shack-Harris turned up {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts} for the nut straight and Steely didn't show his hand. The dealer buried it in the muck and Shack-Harris continued with 435,000.

Paddock Delivers a Bad Beat to Survive

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Robert Paddock and Steven Gagliano had turned their hands face up when we arrived and the dealer was about to roll out the board to determine the preflop contest. Both players had strong holdings but Gagliano's hand was dominating.

Paddock: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Gagliano: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{Q-}{5-}

The board ran {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} to give Paddock a boat and Gagliano stood up from his chair.

"Come on, bro!". Gagliano said in disbelief.

Gagliano conceded 113,000 to Paddock and play carried on.

No Hand-for-Hand, Ohel Bubbles the PLO Championship

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Randy Ohel
Randy Ohel

Just when the tournament floor person informed the dealers to stop the action after the hand in progress, a big hand played out on Table 439. Everything was ready to switch for the hand-for-hand mode on a stone bubble once the hand would be over, with the field down to 73 players.

It started with Randy Ohel limping under the gun. Chase Steely was in the hijack, making it 25,000 and Bogdan Capitan called in the cutoff and Ohel called as well.

The flop came {Q-Spades}{3-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Ohel potted for 87,000. Chase Steely raised all in and Capitan got out of the way. Ohel threw in his last 20,000 or so.

Randy Ohel: {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Chase Steely: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Ohel had a wrap and a nine while Steely turned up two pair and a flush draw.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and the {A-Diamonds} river brought no help for Ohel either.

"Dammit," Ohel said, knowing he fell short of cashing.
