Steve Sung Leads Final 13 PlayersDec 23, '19
After another nine levels of play, the $3,500 Card Player Poker Tour Venetian no-limit hold’em main event is down to its final 13 players and two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Steve Sung is leading the way. Sung used a late surge to propel himself into the lead. The money bubble broke early in level 18, the final level of Day 2 with the final 18 players securing an in-the-money finish. Sung was aggressive on the bubble and eliminated the first three players who busted in the money to finish the day with 1.014 million in chips. Leo Song-Carrillo was chip leader for most of the day and won a massive pot to burst the bubble when he picked up pocket aces against Patrick Uzan’s pocket kings. All the money went in preflop and Song-Carrillo moved over the million mark himself, but a rough finish to the day left him fourth in chips with 685,000.
The day started with 52 players returning, but there was still four levels to play before registration closed. By the time level 14 started and registration was officially closed, the field had grown to 160 entries, generating a prize pool of $504,000 and paid the top 18 spots. Michael Rossitto started the day with the chip lead, but busted shortly after the money bubble. He finished in 17th place for $7,056. Gary Hansen, Samuel Spiwak and Kent Buckingham also busted before the day was over, but not without a cash. Hansen finished in 18th and Spiwak in 16th for the same payout as Hansen. Steven Firestone busted in 15th place, earning $8,064, and Ravi Raghavan busted in 14th place on the last hand of the day when his pocket kings ran into Duong’s pocket aces. The Day 2 field was loaded with talent, but lady luck wasn’t on everyone’s side, with many talented pros hitting the rail. World Poker Tour Champion Aaron Van Blarcum, Bryn Kenney, Ian O’Hara, WSOP bracelet winner Anuj Agarwal, Joe Cheong, Zachary Donovan, WPT Champion Tony Sinishtaj, Ben Yu, Tony Dunst, Alex Rocha, Farid Jattin and Sam Soverel were among the many pros who busted before the end of Sunday’s action. The final 13 players will return on Monday at 1 p.m. to play down to a winner. Everybody is guaranteed a cash of at least $8,064.

Steve Sung – $97,416 Defending Champion David Baker Eliminated in 6th Place ($51,485) Defending Champion David Baker had a tough level. He started the level as one of the short stacks and cemented that role about halfway through the level after doubling up Steve Sung when Sung stood pat with a J – 7 and Baker drew one, pairing eights with 8 – 4 – 3 – 2. Baker was down to less than full big blind after that hand and found some relief in a quick quadruple up after drawing a 10 – 7 low against Richard Ashby’s J -10 in a four-way pot. Soon thereafter and David Baker would get it all in again against Steve Sung, Sung getting the best of it again. Steve Sung raised to 50,000 before the draw, David Baker moved all in for about 10,000 more and both Phil Hellmuth and Sung called the raise. Sung and Baker each drew one card while Hellmuth drew two. Hellmuth bet 50,000 at the side pot and Sung folded. Hellmuth showed 10 – 9 – 8 – 3 – 2 while baker showed 9 – 7 – 5 – 4 – A.

John Juanda started the day as the short stack and managed to double up through Greg Raymer early on with a pat 9 against Raymer’s pat 10. Juanda then made a run at the chip lead amassing over 500,000 at one point before surrendering a huge pot to Richard Ashby which put Ashby on top and dropped Juanda down to about 350,000. Raymer on the other hand wouldn’t be so lucky as he was eliminated in 9th place ($27,928) after Raymer paired jacks against Juanda’s made ten. With Raymer’s 9th place elimination, the final eight players have consolidated to one table where one more player will need to be eliminated before the official seven-handed final table is set.

Left In The Deck Reload When Ready The players have started the tournament with 7,500 in chips in front of them. But they also have three red add-on chips worth 7,500, thus making the starting stacks equal 30,000. The players are free to use the chips at any time during the first four levels, after which they will be forced to cash them in. Come Back In 45 Minutes Freddy Deeb and Steve Sung were just a couple of players who registered late for this event. As a result, the floor has told them that they will be a part of the second flight and must return at the beginning of the second level. The entrants list reads 70 at the moment, but that number is sure to grow by the time the dinner break hits after level four.
