Pease Ate His Wheaties
Feb 17, '14
Chris Tryba thinks Ronnie Pease ate his Wheaties. Pease ended Day 1A as our chipleader and then came into the final day as the chipleader as well, but in the last few levels Pease seemed to have lost a little of his momentum and his stack had dwindled a little.
But the first two hands after break showed things might be turning back around.
First Mark Lieberman limped from under the gun +1 and Brad St. Vincent raised to 67,000. Pease three-bet to 150,000, Lieberman got out of the way and St. Vincent four-bet to 300,000. Pease responded by five-betting all-in and St. Vincent tanked a few minutes before folding.
Next Frank Paul raised to 65,000 from the hijack seat and Pease three-bet to 150,000 from the button. The re-raise was enough to force Paul to fold and Pease addded some more to his stack.
“Did you eat your Wheaties on the break?” Tryba asked.

Frank Paul Finds A Double
Feb 17, '14
Frank Paul was on the short stack with just 246,000 and was facing an opening raise from Brad St. Vincent. Fortunately for Paul, he was holding pocket aces, and he three-bet his opponent.
St. Vincent asked for a count of Paul’s stack, and then moved all-in. Paul insta-called.
St. Vincent held A-J and had a lot of life after a Q-10-9 flop. Paul took a deep breath and braced for the turn. It was a jack, giving St. Vincent some more outs to not lose the hand.
However, a queen on the river wasn’t what he needed, and Paul scored a much-needed double.

Chris Tryba, Tom Dobrilovic and Bart Dowling have discussed walking 26 miles. Tryba said he could not walk 26 miles all at once right now, but was sure if he trained for it, he could do it in about three months from now. Dobrilovic did not seem to think he would be up for a 26 mile walk at this time either, however Dowling seemed more convinced it could happen.
