Chainsaw Firing Things Up Early

On a flop of {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {2-Spades}, Rep Porter checked, the next player bet 750, and then Allen Kessler called on the button. Porter folded, leaving the other two heads up to the turn.

The turn brought the {3-Spades} and action checked to Kessler. He fired 1,500 and was called.

The river was the {9-Hearts} and a bet of 2,000 was laid out in front of Kessler by his opponent. Kessler made the call and tabled a set of eights with the {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. His opponent held {A-Spades} {9-Spades}.

WP Allen...LOL

I'm also 100% sure it was 300-600 so one of our 100%s isn't 100%!

Effel says the reason why Day 1c and Day 1d will play five levels instead of four is to make sure everyone can fit in the combined Day 2b field.

I love how he carefully explains why they're sticking to the pre-advertised schedule, when there wasn't, and still isn't AFAIK, any official explanation why 1A & 1B were changed to 4.

Action checked all the way down in a battle of the blinds between Marcel Luske and the player on his left. At the river, there were five hearts on board. Luske announced he was playing the board; his opponent was too. Luske tabled his hand and watched in surprise as his opponent threw his cards to the dealer, face down.

The dealer did not immediately muck the hand. Luske and the dealer explained to the player that in order to be entitled to half the pot, he must open his hand, regardless of whether he's playing the board. A floor was summoned to the table who made the same ruling. Since Luske's opponent's cards were still clearly identifiable near the muck, the floor opened the hand.

The floor instructed the player that a future dealer may not be so kind as to not immediately kill the player's hand and to table his cards if he wants his share of the pot.

What?? The floor had to open this guy's hand so he could get half the pot?? Why wouldn't he do it himself? Those guys really don't like chips, eh?

Because the player mucked, he can't reach into it to grab his hand.

Looks like they just combined the two lists, and will work out the errors Tuesday.

awesome- I have to fade two people sitting in the 7 seat and then get facepalmed by the 96 year old guy. I'm gonna puke if he busts me.

does this mean they're moving to 10 handed for a little bit? that would be incredibly brutal.

God damnit, for some reason I thought you could pay with a debit card, and obviously you can't and it's Sunday and the bank is closed.

Need: $10k cash to register
Have: $10k in my bank account, which I can get tomorrow, and $4k on Full Tilt.

I'd be willing to pay someone $100 to front me the money so that I can register tonight. I know it's super unlikely that there's a sellout, but I just don't want to worry about it at all.

:SIHOfpiuoasdfhadbsihof I am such a moron this is frustrating. Please PM me if you're willing to help out.

EDIT: Plan B, does anybody know a cage that will give me a $10k cash advance for a ~1% vig? Rio was $350.
