ya - he busto'd late in day 1. KK < 88, aipf, iirc.

OT

ESPN feature table has Hellmuth and Dan Druff.

Eric Cloutier 3-bets Helppi and Helppi folds QQ pf. Next hand Helppi gets dealt KK and now Cloutier has AA and Helppi is eliminated from the tournament.

From Dr. Pauly's twitter (@taopauly):

Hellmuth & Todd Witteles sparring on feature table. "Your company stole my money" - Witteles to Hellmuth (17 min ago)

Somebody take this clown out back behind the Rio and break his knee caps:


Humberto Doubles in Style

There was some commotion over at Humberto Brenes' table. On a flop of {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {4-Diamonds}, Brenes bet 3,000 and his opponent raised to 9,000. Brenes tanked, but eventually had the clock called on him and the antics began.

The player that was involved in the hand was in seat seven. The player in seat eight said, "Humberto, shut the hell up." as Brenes was talking and putting on a show.

"Do you have a sponsor?" said Brenes to the player. "I have a sponsor." pointing to the patch on his arm. "This is about money and television means money from my sponsor." Brenes went on to say.

"Shut up and just act." said the player in seat eight.

Brenes then explained to the floor, "You count down the clock and I'll say 'All in!' when you say three, then two. You have ace queen? You have jack ten? If you have jack ten you have four outs -- I mean six outs. But you have ace queen, ace queen."

The floor counted down from the last ten seconds on the clock and when he got to three Humberto announced that he was all in. It was only a few hundred more and the player called. The player showed {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} and Humberto burst out. "I told you ace queen, I told you ace queen!" as he pointed to the player and to the camera. He then tabled {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}.

The turn brought the {4-Spades}. "It's not coming! It's not coming for you!" preached Brenes. The river was then the {2-Diamonds} and that was it, Humberto celebrated with his hands in the air and earned the double up.

lol, at least he's honest about it.

what a ****

player in seat 8 is likely Scossett awesome!

No idea if it's the same Rob Tepper*- but that's the name of "The T-Man", a pretty big deal morning radio host in Seattle.

*- but some google research tells me that it very likely is.

what a piece of ****

Humberto delivering complete ownership

Arieh's Big Call

The button raised and Josh Arieh called in the small blind, the big blind calling too.

The flop was {9-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} and Arieh led out for 5,700. The big blind raised to 15,000 and the button folded, Arieh made the call before check-calling 20,000 on the {5-Clubs} turn.

The river was {8-Hearts} and Arieh checked again before his opponent moved all in for 21,475. Arieh made the call with just a measly {5-Hearts} {4-Hearts} but it was good as his opponent only could flip {A-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} for nothing at all.

The former 3rd place finisher of the Main Event in 2004 is up to 180,000.

Can this be accurate? Arieh bet/called that flop oop with 2 undercards?

Is howard lederer still in and can someone point me in the direction of his table if so?

Interesting if areih calls that but mucks the AK posted earliuer

most likely its a reporting error. If it is accurate the only explanation I can envision is that the donk exposed his holecards to arieh inadvertently

the smug factor over the feature table is so high it might be unhealthy to stand around the table.

straight draw imo.

just busted AKs<AKo. what a horrible ****ing series.

i open the AKcc UTG to 1600 at 300/600 with ~20K behind, ffrench guy on my left makes it ~6K, folds to me I jam, he tanks and calls AxKh.
