Depaulo's Day Isn't Done Yet

Level 6 : 80/160, 0 ante
Ryan DePaulo
Ryan DePaulo

Ryan "joeyisamush" Depaulo, who won Event #12: $500 The BIG 500 No-Limit Hold'em a couple weeks ago, limped from the lojack and watched Byung Jun "YESUM1987" Kim three-bet to 432 next to act. "FISHandCHIPS" came along from the big blind, Depaulo called, and it was three-way action to the {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop.

Two checks saw Kim continue for 688 and "FISHandCHIPS" check-raised to 2,976. Depaulo called off for 2,359 and Kim got out of the way.

"FISHandCHIPS": {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Ryan "joeyisamush" Depaulo: {3-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Depaulo had flopped top pair but was way behind the set of "FISHandCHIPS." The {6-Clubs} turn left Depaulo drawing dead and the {7-Diamonds} river saw the pot pushed to his opponent.

Depaulo opted to re-enter and reloaded with a 20,000 starting stack.

Marvin "mkarlins" Karlins (AKA Duckman) Chasing the Poker Dream

Level 6 : 80/160, 0 ante
Marvin Karlins
Marvin Karlins

When Florida's Marvin "mkarlins" Karlins, better known to the poker world as the "Duckman" given his affinity for pocket deuces, heard there was going to be a World Series of Poker (WSOP) online series, he was quick to leave his home in Florida and set up shop in Las Vegas.

The 78-year-old Karlins has a passion for poker, which is a welcomed escape from his highly-successful professional career, which includes serving as a Professor of Management at the University of South Florida. He has written two dozen books and over 200 articles in professional, academic and popular journals. while also serving an international consultant to major companies specializing in the aviation industry (he worked with Singapore Airlines for 20 years).

In the poker world, Karlins has amassed $316,690 in live earnings including a career-best $119,957 for finishing fourth in the 2015 World Poker Tour (WPT) bestbet Bounty Scramble in Jacksonville. As for online play, this summer’s WSOP.com events are Karlins’ first foray into the online poker landscape, and despite his lack of online experience, he has shied away from competition. In fact, he's participated in all the hold'em events up until this point.

While he's still looking for his first deep run, he's hoping a bracelet run might be in store, maybe even today!

Riess Felts Trivett, Who Promptly Fires Again

Level 5 : 60/120, 0 ante
Michael Trivett
Michael Trivett

Ryan "bitc0in" Riess raised to 300 from the cutoff and then called when Michael "annie_r_u_ok" Trivett three-bet jammed for 2,520 from the small blind.

Ryan "bitc0in" Riess: {q-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Michael "annie_r_u_ok" Trivett: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

Riess had the superior aces and he claimed the pot after the board ran out {2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Trivett, last year's WSOP Circuit Planet Hollywood Main Event winner, opted to immediately re-enter for a fresh 20,000 starting stack.

Vigelette Sets Up Beyerlein for Double

Level 5 : 60/120, 0 ante

George "gvigelette" Vigelette opened for 420 from middle position and Matthew "DirtyVladBoy" Beyerlein three-bet to 1,200 next to ace.

Action on the table folded back around to Vigelette who jammed for 6,700 and Beyerlein quickly called.

George "gvigelette" Vigelette: {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Matthew "DirtyVladBoy" Beyerlein: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

Vigelette was ahead with his pair of fours but the {8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop gave him a sweat as Beyerlein a gutshot.

The {4-Clubs} turn was a sight of relief for Vigelette as it gave him a set and as Beyerlein needed to spike a seven to win.

The {10-Diamonds} river paired Beyerlein but it was one card too late as it secured Vigelette's double-up.

WSOP History: Looking Back at the November (and October) Nines

Level 5 : 60/120, 0 ante
2014 WSOP November Nine
2014 WSOP November Nine

No stage in poker stood as a bigger goal for a tournament player than the final table of the WSOP Main Event. For years, that meant going to sleep knowing you had the chance of a lifetime, to go down in poker history in the next few days as the cameras captured your every bet, raise and fold.

All of that changed in 2008.

The year after Jerry Yang's Main Event victory was broadcast to all on ESPN's standard tape delay, organizers made a decision to try to increase the excitement and anticipation around the final table: after the final nine was reached, play would be paused. At that point, everyone left would go home with 9th-place money and the players would reconvene a few months later to play out the final table on a short tape delay.

That lasted until 2016, and this is the history of the November (and October) Nines.
