The Record is Broken

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

The tournament clock has just been updated to show 1,059 entrants in today's field, breaking the record of 1,036 from 2014.

With registration open for approximately another 30 minutes (until the start of Level 10), a 1,100 entry field is not out of the question.

Nezhouda Finds a Good Deal

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

A three-way flop of {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs} saw a bet from the small blind, followed by a call from the big blind. Rene Nezhouda, a TV personality from Storage Wars, then raised from the button.

The other two players called, and the group then saw a turn {4-Diamonds}, and the action checked around.

A {4-Clubs} prompted a lead from the small blind, which was called by the big blind and Nezhouda.

The small blind tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for a rivered full house for a hi and Rene showed {3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Spades} for a low. The big blind mucked and Nezhouda took half of the large pot.
