Nível 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

At the start of Day 1c, thousands of players had high hopes of becoming the next World Series of Poker Main Event champion. Now, ten hours later, hundreds have had those dreams decimated by coolers hands, bad beats, and heart-wrenching river cards.

One of the players that recently experienced the pain was Chance Kornuth. We saw Kornuth standing at the makeshift bar in the Rio hallway, and despite being eliminated, he was happy to talk about his demise (while ordering a drink, of course).

"Nothing really went my way today," Kornuth said as the bartender handed him what appeared to be a tonic and gin.

Kornuth then explained that he had grown short-stacked and shoved his last 4,300 holding . Seth Berger woke up with , and just like that, Kornuth was out.

With the board reading , Jake Powers bet 1,200 and Jackie Glazier moved all in for her last 4,200. Powers called.

With Glazier needing a club, jack or ten to stay alive, the river landed the to send the Australian to the rail, as Powers climbs to roughly 58,000 in chips.

Glazier, who was the last woman standing in last year's Main Event before she ultimately exited in 31st place for $229,281, was understandably crestfallen as she gathered her things and headed for the exit.

The Buzio's Contigent

Nível 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

The 2014 World Series of Poker takes place in the convention center of the Rio All-Suite Casino in Las Vegas. The sprawling complex is actually located out back of the Rio and is connected by a long hallway. It really is its own little world.

Occasionally, that world gets too big for its britches, such as here on Day 1c, when the field was so large that a spillover area was needed. That spillover area, which is located near the Rio — up the hall, past the Penn & Teller Theater, and just beyond Hash House A-Go-Go — is known as Buzio's. That's because the area, which is comprised of twelve poker tables, is just outside the Rio's seafood restaurant Buzio's. Makes sense, right?

Anyway, this area, while necessary, is a little inconvenient, especially when it comes to tournament reporting. As such, the players there haven't received as much love as those in the Amazon, Pavilion and Brasilia Rooms. In an attempt to pacify those players, we took a stroll through the Buzio's section where we discovered a half dozen notables, none with more chips than Daniel Alaei.

Alaei, who was sitting on around 100,000, was kind enough to tell us of a big hand that helped him chip up. As he told it, he held and defended from the big blind after the player on the button had raised. The flop was kind to Alaei, and he ended up check-raising the button's bet of 1,000 up to 3,300. A call was made and Alaei led out for 5,800 on the turn. The button called, and then Alaei moved all in when a river gave him a full house.

The button had about 18,000 back and called off with for trips. Alaei's boat was good, and that set him on the right path toward a prosperous Day 1c.
