Former Bracelet Winner Mike Carson Thriving

As we were wandering the Orange Section of the Pavilion, we happened to notice a big stack that just so happens to belong to Mike Carson, who won a bracelet back at the 2000 WSOP in Event #18 $3,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em. All told, Carson has six WSOP cashes totaling $280,235.

With a stack of over 120,000, we'll certainly be keeping an eye on Carson throughout Day 2b.

Lisandro Drops a Few

Nível 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

It folded around to Christopher Bolek in the small blind who raised to 1,400. Jeffrey Lisandro, sitting in the big blind with mirrored glasses and his characteristic hat, made the call. The flop came {3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}. Bolek bet 1,800. Lisandro rechecked his cards, and called the bet.

The turn brought the {6-Diamonds}, pairing the board. This time Bolek bet 4,100, then Lisandro made it 9,000 to go. Bolek hesitated, then called.

The river was the {7-Clubs}, and both players quickly checked. Bolek tabled {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} for queens and sixes, and Lisandro mucked.

Lisandro has about 44,000 now, while Bolek chips up over 80,000.

Filippi On Right Side Of Super Cooler

Amnon Filippi

We just caught a cooler hand that would make Mr. Freeze from the Batman series cringe. Amnon Filippi and Marcelo Mesqueu were heads up on a board that read {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Mesqueu checked to Filippi, who bet out 3,700. Mesqueu called, and the pot had about 11,000 in it.

The river came the {q-Diamonds}, and Mesqueu checked one more time. Filippi threw out an over bet of 16,000, and Mesqueu thought for just a few seconds before announcing all in. Filippi SNAP called and showed {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} for flopped quads. Mesqueu shook his head, and showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a flopped full house.

Filippi missed the reveal, and when he was told what Mesqueu, he was understandably shocked. "Wow thats just so sick. I was praying he had queens. When I saw the first six I was happy. When I saw the second I was like damn I'm not going to make any money."

Well he certainly did. Filippi and Mesqueu were virtually even in chips, with Filippi barely having him covered. He now has over 100,000.

Mueller’s Day Two

We caught up with the action four-handed on a {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop where it was checked to Greg Mueller who bet 1,100 in the hijack and only the small blind stuck around. Both players checked the {K-Clubs} turn and the small blind check-called another Mueller bet of 2,000 on the {9-Clubs} river. Mueller flipped over {K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for kings up which was good to take down the pot and get some thinnish value on the end of the double-paired board.

Savage Sets Sail for Victory

Nível 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

A player in late position made it 1,200 and Matt Savage in the small blind made the call. The dealer flattened out a {6-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop and it was here that both players checked. A {k-Diamonds} fell on the turn, allowing Savage to seemingly take control of the hand and bet out 1,500. After a mild tank session his opponent called.

The {7-Hearts} river however slowed Savage down as he opted to simply knuckle. Savage's opponent then bet out 800. Savage immediately said call and flipped over {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a pair of kings. Savage's opponent showed {8-}{8-} for a weaker pair, and the losing hand. Savage now sits around 64,000 in chips.

Tran Wins Small One

We caught up with the action three-handed where each player was in for a bet of 1,100 on the {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop. On the {2-Clubs} turn, the big blind led out for 2,200 and J.C. Tran called from early position. The button folded and the two remaining players both checked when the {5-Hearts} hit the river. Tran turned over {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for a pair of sevens which had the big blind’s {A-}{Q-} for just ace-high beat.

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?

Nível 6 : 250/500, 50 ante
Eric and Donny Mizrachi
Eric and Donny Mizrachi

The quick answer is over at Table 309 where two Mizrachi Brothers are seated side by side, well with the dealer in the middle. Donny Mizrachi, who finished 345th in last year's Main Event, and Eric Mizrachi, who finished 718th last year, are currently seated in the one and nine seats respectively.

The tables in the Amazon Room won't be breaking before those in the Pavilion, which means we might be privy to some brotherly battles; however, Eric will have his work cut out as he began the day with just 11,450, a far cry from Donny's 86,500.

How Are You?

Andrew Hippert opened to 1,200 in early position, Eric Liu called on his direct left, and the action folded behind them. Liu gave Hippert a death stare as the dealer burned a card, preparing to deliver the flop.

"How are you?" Hippert asked him in a very friendly tone.

Liu broke into a smile. "I'm good."

The flop was {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}, and Hippert led for 1,600. Liu called, and the turn brought another nine - the {9-Spades}. Hippert checked, Liu tossed out 4,200, and Hippert check-raised to 12,200.

Liu tank-folded {a-}{j-} face-up.

"Good fold," Hippert offered, mucking his cards face down.
