Harmon's Bluff Gets Pick off

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up on the river with roughly 25,000 in the pot and the board showing 3A893.

Gerard Harraghy checked from the big blind to David Harmon on the button, who bet 20,100 to put Harraghy all in. After thinking over his decision, Harraghy called for his tournament life.

Harmon tabled 64 for six high, and Harraghy showed A2 for two pair aces and threes and secured the double up.

Popping Up the Counts

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Thre-way action was on the flop of 283. Preston McEwen bet 2,800 from middle position. Catalin Pop raised to 7,800 from the small blind and the big blind got out of the way.

The turn was the 3. Pop led out for 6,800. McEwen contemplated it for some time before he released his cards.

"Want to see the red one or the bluff" said Pop, which McEwen responded the bluff. Pop then showed the 7 and claimed the other one had been the 8.

Another Main Event Champion Falls

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Joe Cada
Joe Cada

On the side feature table, Joe Cada moved all in for 11,100 from early position and was at risk to Eliran Pilo, who was on the button.

Joe Cada: 44All in
Eliran Pilo: KK

The AK5 flop saw Pilo make a set to leave Cada drawing thin. The 8 turn gave Cada some hope with a flush draw but the 2 river was a brick and Cada exited on Day 2d.

Grise Among the Early Big Stacks on Day 2

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Benjamin Grise started his journey today with an above-average stack in the Paris Ballroom and was moved over to the Horseshoe Ballroom red section with an already huge stack. He then took down the latest pot against Peter Jaksland when the latter was wise to check behind the 87359 river.

Grise tabled the AK for the ace-high flush and claimed the pot.

Jones Has the Goods in Four-Way Pot

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Steven Jones
Steven Jones

A player in early position raised to 2,600 and picked up three callers, including Steven Jones in middle position.

The flop came 7710 and action checked to the cutoff who bet 8,000. The big blind then moved all in for 8,800 and Jones and the cutoff called.

Both players checked the 6 turn before Jones bet 30,000 on the 8 river. The cutoff quickly folded.

"Ah," Jones said as he slammed down 77 for quads. Jones, last year's runner-up, took the pot to send the big blind to the rail.
