Madsen took the opportunity to bet his remaining 21,800, and Watson thought for a few moments before making the call.
Madsen:
Watson:
Madsen was ahead with two pair and the nut-flush draw, while Watson held just a pair of eights and an inferior flush draw. The dealer burned one last time and put out the , which improved Watson to a better two pair.
Madsen slammed down his cards in frustration and made a beeline toward the exit. Needless to say, he was none too happy.
Jeff Rossiter called down bets of 3,000 on the turn and 4,000 on the river of a board and was good with against the of his opponent.
One hand later, there were two limper including Jamie Pickering and Rossiter made it 4,000 to go, which only Pickering called. On the [Kh[ flop, Rossiter fired 6,000 straight away from the small blind and Pickering mucked his cards.
The tournament staff has just confirmed that Tournament Director Jack Effel has extended late registration, which was originally supposed to close at the end of Level 8, until the start of Day 2.

After Jeff Gross was eliminated from Table 28, a big hand developed when Jason Gray opened for 2,200 and Brian Rast called from the cutoff. Jeff Rossiter came along from the small blind, Jonathan Duhamel did the same from the big, and four players saw a flop of , which they all checked.
Rossiter then led out for 5,800 on the turn, Duhamel called, and both Gray and Rast folded. When the completed the board on the river, Rossiter checked and then called a bet of 13,700 from Duhamel. The 2010 WSOP Main Event champ tabled the for the nuts and Rossiter sent his cards to the muck.
The popular "Lodden Thinks" game has returned Down Under with Antonio Esfandiari in the mix here at the 2014 World Series of Poker Asia-Pacific, and most recently he was asking how much would Daniel Negreanu would need to be paid to eat a cheeseburger. Negreanu is vegan, and Esfandiari got Ismael Bojang and Sam Ngai involved. The bidding between the three apparently went as high as $105,000.
Some money was lost by Bojang, Ngai, and Aaron Lim, as Negreanu said that he would do it for $325,000.
We noticed a mid-sized pot over on table 25 and Nathan Pan committed 4,400 on the turn only to check the river. In the showdown he revealed but his opponent had made a full house with on the last community card.
Once again Nathan Pan was involved in a pot and he called a bet of 8,000 on the turn before checking behind on the river. Ashby seemed disappointed as he rolled over for a full house and scooped the pot. Below are also the up-to-date chip counts of all other players on table 25.
Antonio Esfandiari opened with a raise from the hijack only to have Ismael Bojang three-bet to 10,700 from the button. The blinds both folded, and then Esfandiari shoved for 22,300 more. Bojang sort of rolled his eyes before dropping in a call. He seemed as if he expected Esfandiari to turn over aces, but that wasn't the case.
Bojang:
Esfandiari:
Bojang was ahead with kings, but Esfandiari had some connecting cards. Unfortunately for him, the flop was as dry as could be, and the turn actually left him drawing dead. The meaningless was put out on the river for good measure, and then "The Magician" took his leave from the tournament.
Karim Jomeen raised to 3,000 from under the gun and got called three ways to see the flop. The action got checked to the initial raiser and Jomeen continued for 4,200, which Daniel Negreanu called. Ismael Bojang made it 9,000 on the button and Jomeen tank-folded whereas the Canadian tossed in the extra chips.
