Level Two Hour One Update: Adams Chipping up Jul 06, '10 Blinds: 100-200 Notable Chip Counts: Minh Ly – 60,000 Kevin Saul – 55,850 Jean-Robert Bellande – 43,000 Amit Makhija – 40,000 Brandon Adams – 40,000 Dan Kelly – 37,000 Jeremiah Smith – 35,600 Card Player Chip Counts: Jon Friedberg – 32,500 Notable Eliminations Mark Seif Big Hands: Adams Chipping Up Brandon Adams limped under the gun and the player in seat 5 raised to 850. The player in the big blind and Adams both called. The flop ran 57Q and the big blind checked to Adams who bet 3,300. Seat 5 called the sizeable bet quickly and the big blind folded. The J hit on the turn and Adams again led out for 6,000. Seat 5 called very quickly again. The 10 landed on the river and Adams bet two orange chips for a 10,000 bet. This time seat 5 took a deep breath and tanked, shaking his head. He asked Adams if he had a set and Adams didn’t move a muscle. Seat 5 eventually folded, flashing pocket kings and Adams scooped a nice pot that put his stack around 40,000. Swick Takes Quick Hit In a 3-way limped pot the flop ran 104K and action was checked to seat 9, who bet 1,200. UFC fighter Mike Swick made the call and the gentleman sitting to Swick’s left raised to 5,000. Seat 9 folded and so did Swick. Despite the loss, Swick still sits with around 30,000. *Young Gets Hit With a cold Deck and Crippled* On a flop of 272, Justin Young checked and his opponent on the button bet 2,275. Young check-raised to 6,700 and his opponent went into the tank. After a minute of thought or so, his opponent moved all-in for 22,075. Young winced and said “I’m supposed to snap-call, but I don’t like it.” Young eventually made the call and showed K2. His opponent on the button turned up A2, giving him the better kicker with his trips. The turn was the 5 and the river was the Q and Young was crippled with around 4,000 left. Le Doubles With Flush Tuan Le got his last 10,000 or so all in on a flop of 467. he held AQ for a flush draw and his opponent held the flopped set with 44. The 5 hit on the turn, giving Le the flush, and the 10 on the river meant that doubled up to around 21,500. *Williamson Over Dang* Robert Williamson III bet 250 on a fop of JQ5 and was called by Hac Dang. Both players checked the 10 turn and the 4 river card. Williamson showed Q6 and Dang mucked. They are both hovering around the 30,000 starting stack. Williamson Allegedly Lays Down Aces On a board of 109210 Robert Williamson bet 2,800. His opponent raised to 8,000 and Williamson tanked. He eventually elected to fold. His opponent tabled the K10 and Williamson claimed he folded aces. Player Tags: Tuan Le, Justin Young, Brandon Adams, Mike Swick View All Live Updates From This Event

Level 4 Update: Field Size Nears 300 Mark Dec 14, '09 Blinds: 200-400 with a 25 ante Players Remaining: 260 out of 290 (unofficial) Chip Counts: 1. Darryll Fish — 200,000 2. Billy Kopp — 185,000 3. Jon Turner — 180,000 4. David Benyamine — 170,000 5. Cory Carroll — 155,000 6. James Mackey — 140,000 7. Soheil Shamseddin — 135,000 8. Isaac Baron — 115,000 9. John Cernuto — 115,000 Card Player Chip Counts Barry Shulman — 72,000 Average Chip Count: 67,000 Notable Eliminations: Jean Gaspard Scott Seiver Corwin Cole Big Hands: What Was Tuan Holding? We caught up with this hand on the river, with a board showing A423A. Tuan Le bet 11,000 and Amit Makhija moved all in for 53,000, covering Le’s final 21,000 in chips. Le agonzied over his decision for over four minutes while Makhija remained silent and still. Eventually, Le folded and kept his remaining chips. Makhija neglected to show. Let’s Chop It A player raised, David Chiu reraised and Christian Harder put in yet another raise. The original player folded and Chiu decided to just call. The flop came out J83 and both players got their remaining chips in the middle. Chiu was hoping for Harder to show pocket kings, but instead, both players were disappointed to find out they were both holding pocket aces. The inconsequential turn and river came and both players chopped the pot for a small profit. Chris Moore Should’ve Folded Chris Moore raised to 1,100 in middle position and was called by an unknown opponent and Barry Shulman in the big blind. The flop came out J87 and both Shulman and Moore checked to their opponent who bet 2,600. Moore was the only caller and both players checked the turn when the J fell. The river was the Q and Moore’s opponent bet 3,500. Moore took about 30 second before calling and mucked when he was shown KJ. Nonetheless, Moore still stands strong with 76,000 in chips. Left In The Deck: Action In Bobby’s Room The tournament is going strong now with nearly 290 players, but the action in Bobby’s Room adjacent to the poker room is doing just as well with both tables at capacity. Currently, Doyle Brunson, Lyle Berman, Phil Ivey, David Oppenheim and Eric Sagstrom are competing for huge stakes.
