Man. Can you imagine playing for 5 days and going out like that? WTF...

What a donkey hand by Steven Begleiter....

keep going akenhead

If Akenhead was on a flush draw, it was pretty stupid to call such a huge bet on the turn when you're out of position. He should've either folded or pushed all-in.

was he on a flush draw?

you just making that up?

isnt it pretty obvious he had top pair

KQ probably

Peter Eastgate was just moved over to Blue 38 when his initial table broke, a move that reunited him with his fellow 2008 November Niner Dennis Phillips. Rounding out the lineup are two-time bracelet winner J.C. Tran and 2005 Main Event champion Joe Hachem-- which leaves us wondering... why isn't this the featured table?

Interesting to see Dennis Phillips and Peter Eastgate are on the same table again.
Can't help but be impressed by both of them, getting this deep again.
I'm more impressed by Phillips, grinding it a bit more this year. Rather than sitting on a massive stack, day after day.

because hachem has already been at like 5 feature tables

are they playing till they reach a certain number of players remaining or are they playing once the levels are completed?

Yeh fair play on Phillips, i didnt think too much of him last year, but he's really prooving me wrong.

Also said earlier that Katchalov would pick up alot of chips today and he seems to be prooving me right.

Freidman noticed anyone not ante'ing this year?

Prahlad Friedman just doubled up

Haabak Should Have Practiced Avoidance

Prahlad Friedman opened up from middle position with a raise to 40,000. Two seats over, new table mate Jesse Haabak re-raised to 125,000 from the cutoff seat. It folded back around to Friedman, and he eventually moved all in for a total of 269,000. After getting the count, Haabak made the call to put Friedman at risk.

Showdown
Friedman: {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}
Haabak: {A-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}

Friedman stood up and paced around the stage behind his chair, clearly a bit anxious about the upcoming board. For his tournament life, he watched a safe board run out {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. With his eights holding, Prahlad has notched a much-needed double up, sitting now with 580,000.

Things That Make You Go "Hmmmm?"

There was 150,000 in the pot on the river, the board reading {K-Hearts} {K-Spades} {3-Spades} {K-Clubs} {8-Spades}. Ludovic Lacay moved all in for 1.87 million, sending John Martin into the tank. Martin thought about it for five solid minutes before finally calling off his remaining 575,000.

Lacay insta-mucked and Martin showed {Q-Spades} {9-Spades} for a flush. Since it was Lacay's bet that he called, Martin wanted to see the hand and it was fished out of the muck. Lacay had nothing but air with {7-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}.

Lacay is down to 1,870,000 while Martin has new life with 1.3 million in chips



wat a f call

now that the pokerbrat is busto ESPN needs pokermonkey hachem to berate dealers,whine for the cameras and yell out "one more time"

Ivey up to 1.7M. Good to see this day starts better for him than the last one.

Iveyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy apple = ballin

Moments after grabbing an apple from his favorite old couple on the rail, Phil Ivey returned to his seat for his small blind. Ryan Hart raised to 41,000 from under the gun. Herbie Gelman called from the next position, Sarne Lightman called from middle position, and Van Nguyen called from the cutoff seat. Phil Ivey was in the small blind and raised to 180,000 with apple in hand. Only Nguyen made the call.

The flop brought the {6-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {5-Clubs} and Ivey led for 250,000. Nguyen tanked for a moment before looking at Ivey. Ivey was giving his famous blank stare and then took a big chunk out of his apple. Nguyen then called.

The turn was the {Q-Spades}. Ivey took a moment and went to make a bet with his remaining chips. He was going to bet with orange T5,000 chips as that's all he had left, but realized he was going to need two hands to do so. Not wanting to put his apple on the table, Ivey clenched is between his teeth and slid out a bet of 330,000 with two hands. Nguyen made the fold and Ivey raked in the pot.

Ivey is now up to 1.7 million.

Sick soul read

Good to see the both are still around.

sham wow

ship it

so sick lmao

Cole South is busto.

Dang Finds Three Pair

Under the gun, Nichoel Peppe opened with a raise to 40,000. Four opponents came along with her to the flop, and it showed up {K-Spades} {2-Spades} {2-Diamonds}. She would continue out into the pot with a bet of 150,000, this time finding just one caller, Hac Dang.

Fourth street came the {7-Hearts}. Peppe checked this time, and Dang took the opportunity to fire out 150,000 before being check-raised to 350,000. He called the extra 200,000, and the river card was the {Q-Spades}. Peppe checked again, and Dang checked behind.

The lady tabled {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs} for kings up, but the river had made Dang's {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} the winning top two pair. He's moved up to 2,490,000 knocking Peppe back to 1,200,000.

i lke ivey but how exactly is betting with an apple in your mouth "so sick lmao"?

I predict the PokerNews title to his bustout hand will be "Cole goes South"
