Omaha Eight-Or-Better Update
Jun 26, '07
Only 23 players now remain in Event # 42, and those recently eliminated after the dinner break include Russ Salzer 32nd ($5,345), European pro, Philip Marmorstein 31st ($5,345), and William Chen 28th (5,345).
Chen came in for a pre-flop raise of $12,000 when James Toller made the call. The flop came A
8 5
, and Chen bet out $30,000 (pot size). James Tolley moved all-in behind him and Chen called all-in; Tolley had him covered. Tolley turned over 7 4
4
while Chen showed A K 6 3. The turn and the river bring the J and the 6, giving Tolley the straight for the high and the seven-low, scooping the pot and send Chen to the rail in 28th place.
Shortly after Chen’s elimination, the tournament staff had the remaining 27 players redraw for new seat assignments. The redraw put Chad Brown alongside European pros, Sigi Stockinger and George Danzer. Stockinger is currently sitting with $46,000 while Danzer has $164,000 in chips.
