Marc MacDonnell's Flight 2 came to a pretty early end after being coolered by table neighbor Louis Salter. Both had flopped two pair and turned a full house on a board of , but the of MacDonell were not good enough to beat Salter's . A few other notables and faces from yesterday have already done some work at the tables, too.
Daniel Levy has late-registered not long ago and taken a seat at the table of Andrew Lichtenberger. Not far away from them is the table of Alex Rocha and the latter has tripled up his short stack, then called a raise to 450 while sitting on the button. Ferenc Riech also called in the big blind and the flop came .
The initial raiser in the cutoff fired a continuation bet worth 1,075 and Rocha as well as Riech folded.
Raj Ramakrishnan opened to 450 and was called only by Rahul Rastogi in the big blind. Rastogi check-called a continuation bet worth 700 on the flop and did so again for 1,500 on the turn. The river completed the board and both players checked to see Rastogi flip over as winning hand.
While Rastogi is up to triple starting stack, the chips of Rupert Elder at the same table have vanished entirely.
Sam Higgs defeated Mike "SirWatts" Watson to win the golden bracelet at the 2014 World Series of Poker Asia Pacific A$ 5,000 Pot Limit Omaha and has registered for Flight 2. The table of the Australian also includes Geoffrey Mooney as well as Gerald Karlic, so expect some fireworks.
The full action is unknown but a decent-sized pot emerged until the river of a board . Rory Young checked with around 4,000 chips behind and Federico Butteroni put him all in with the far superior stack. Young snap-called but the 2014 WSOP APAC bracelet winner had picked the wrong timing, as Butteroni flipped over for the nut flush.
Unable to beat that, Young tossed his cards into the muck and rushed out of the tournament area.
The player that had previously doubled through Alex Rocha is no longer in the tournament. It happened in a three-way pot with Panayotis Flourentzou when the latter opened to 550. He was raised to 1,500 and the player in the big blind flat-called, Florentzou did so too. On the flop , Florentzou raised the bet of the three-bettor from 2,500 to 5,500 and then called the jam on the turn with his set.
The opponent called the shove with for the nut flush, but another nine paired the board on the river.
Rainer Kempe has already doubled up his stack and Julian Stuer did so, too. In fact, the German said he cracked the pocket aces of Andrew Lichtenberger with and also doubled up the initial stack.
Weeds and Entourage Writer and Producer Matt Salsberg has picked up some steam, and a few chips, here into Level 4.
He defended his big blind against a Daniel Levy 475-chip late position open and they went heads up to an flop. Both players checked, but after Salsberg checked the turn, Levy led for 700.
Salsberg flatted and checked again on the river. Levy led again, this time making it 1,800, but Salsberg fired back, check-raising to 4,050 total. Levy folded and a cagey discussion as to whether Salsberg had value bet or bluffed ensued.
