WTF

Marchese Doubles -- Without Showdown

Less then ten minutes into the day the final table saw its first river card -- and it was a doozy. David Paredes opened pre-flop for 135,000 and was called by Tom Marchese from the cutoff and Sam Stein from the big blind. Things started slowly after a ragged flop of {10-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}, with each player checking in turn. Stein took a stab on the {4-Diamonds} turn with a bet of 220,000 but was unable to shake either Paredes or Marchese.

The river fell {2-Hearts}. Stein fired again for 430,000. Paredes dove into the tank for about a minute before raising to 1,130,000. Marchese, sitting behing Paredes, then moved all in for 1,970,000!

Stein quickly folded but Paredes could be seen talking to himself. Looks of "what have I walked into" flashed across his face. With more than 4.5 million chips in the pot and only 800,000 to call he was clearly having a hard time finding a fold. He did finally fold, showing {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs}, a six-high straight. Marchese said nothing as he raked in the pot.

oops you're right my bad

dang ... he had 56. i'm no touring pro but you have to call that getting 5.6:1.

Did anyone see the 6c5c on the stream?

Edit: Asking because I would have thought Hartigan/Negreanu would have mentioned those cards.

not visible on the stream

I mean, just a ******ed fold....

Also, I'm heading down to do commentary at 3:30

nay, I thought I saw a 5c face up in the mix with the board cards when the dealer was pushing the pot towards Marchese, but I cannot be certain.

god i hope paredes never quits

I mean, do you think Tom is bluffing or something?

whats the password for the freeroll?

vegas

Thanks pig

Stream still running about 5 minutes behind, cards in the air.

Nice quality live stream IMO.

Nice action so far...

Gavin Griffin doing commentary right now.

tuchman seems less awful commentating live than he did on mirrion dorrar cash.

i thought tuckman did an ok job yesterday during the shootout. he's no shaun deeb though

Will pokerstars be offering an FPP package in the VIP store for the NAPT @ Mohegan Sun?

No, I don't think he's bluffing, but he can certainly have less than the nut straight 14% of the time.

nice job on the commentary today gavin.
