The board stayed out of things, running off J J 10 9 6 and Duthie became the first player to advance to the sweet 16 and make the money. He ensured a cash worth at least $67,436. Tom Dwan Advances Ashton Griffin got the last of his chips into the middle against Tom Dwan and when they flipped over their cards “Durrrr†was way out in front with pocket aces over his opponents pocket fives. The aces held and Dwan was the second player to advance to the sweet 16. Maxim Lykov Close to the Ropes Maxim Lykov faced another decision against Matt Marafioti with the board reading K K 6 2 A and 50,000 raised out on the table after Lykov opened the action for 16,000.

Day 1A Summary SpotlightJan 23, '11 It looks like we have 238 runners today and there are now 175 players still in the mix as play gets close to the dinner break on Day 1A. Tom Dwan won’t advance past the first day of this event as he fell before the dinner break. He will very likely participate in the $250,000 buy-in single table tournament on January 27 though, so he should stick around in Melbourne for the next couple days. Another pro who fell just before dinner is young Australian Jonathan Karamalikis. He was all in preflop with K-J, but he was dominated by the A-K of Cliff Lee, who flopped an ace to seal the young Aussie’s fate. Here is a look at the tournament statistics: Notable Chip Counts: Barny Boatman: 60,000 Recent Eliminations: Eli Elezra The field will return from dinner and play three more levels this evening. Play will end around 1:30 a.m. local time. Player Tags: Tom Dwan, Jonathan Karamalikis |

Barny Boatman – 152,000 Card Player Chip Counts: Stephen A. Murphy — 23,000 Notable Eliminations: Tom Dwan Twitter Accounts: Daniel Negreanu Big Hands: Lieu And Her Ladies Score The Knockout A player moved all in from under the gun and the action folded around to Liz Lieu in the small blind. She made the call and they turned over their hands: Lieu: QQ Lieu was dominating and the board ran out 85394 and Lieu knocked out her opponent. She was up to 72,000 after the hand. Binger’s Kings Hold A player put in a raise from early position preflop and Nick Binger repopped from the cutoff. The initial raiser put in another raise and Binger moved all in. The call was made and the players turned their cards: Binger: KK Binger was dominating and the board ran out 109210J and Binger doubled up to 33,200. Mortensen Surrenders His Hearts Picking up the action after the board had run out 1087QQ Carlos Mortensen led out with 3,500. His opponent proceeded to raise it up to 15,200. Mortensen then went into a session in the tank and asked his opponent if he would show if Mortensen folded. Mortensen did not get that luxury but he mucked his hand face up. Mortensen threw away A4 for the nut flush. He apparently put his opponent on a full house and was down to 25,000. Williams Drops A Pot David Williams raised to 1,050 from under the gun and he was called by three players. The flop came down AJ4 and Williams bet 3,000. One player called and the A fell on the turn. Both players checked and the 2 came on the river. The opponent bet 3,500 and Williams made the call. The opponent then showed AQ for trips and Williams mucked. He was at 110,000 after the hand. Dwan On The Brink, Then Falls Tom Dwan raised to 1,050 preflop and Lee Markholt made the call, as did the big blind. The flop came down 954 and Dwan fired 2,275. Markholt was the only one to call and the turn was the K. Both players checked and the 7 fell on the river. Dwan took a stab with 4,850 and Markholt made a hesitant call. It turned out to be a good one, however, as Dwan tabled J8 for a whole lot of nothing. Markholt tabled 109 for a pair of nines and took the pot. Dwan was down to just 6,000. Then, on one of the last hands of the night, Dwan found his demise. A player raised to 1,100 and Tom Dwan made the call from the big blind. The flop came down J108. Dwan moved all in for 2,000 and was called. Here were the hands: Dwan: J10 Dwan flopped top two but his opponent had a gutshot straight draw. The turn was the 6, doing no damage. But the river was the 9, making the other player his straight and Dwan was sent to the rail. The Art Of Doubli-Ng Picking up the action after the flop came down 432, Evelyn Ng bet 6,600 and her opponent moved all in. She made the call, putting herself at risk: Ng: 88 Ng was good with her overpair and the board finished off 3 and K. Ng took the pot and doubled up to 53,000. Player Tags: Lee Markholt, Evelyn Ng, Carlos Mortensen, David Williams, Liz Lieu, Tom Dwan, Nick Binger Level Four, Hour Two: Giang And Yang EliminatedJul 07, '10 Blinds: 150-300 with a 25 ante Players Remaining: 1,980 out of 2,314 Notable Chip Counts: 1. Barny Boatman – 151,000 Card Player Chip Counts: Stephen A. Murphy — 37,800 Notable Eliminations: Chau Giang Twitter Accounts: Daniel Negreanu Big Hands: Chau Giang Disappears Courtesy Of The Magician Picking up the action after the turn, the board read KQ93 and Chau Giang bet 7,000. Antonio Esfandiari raised the action to 15,000 and Giang moved all in. Esfandiari made the call and the players turned over their cards: Giang: J10 Giang flopped a straight but his flush draw was dead to Esfandiari’s better draw that went along with his two pair. The river then brought the K, giving Esfandiari a full house and Giang was sent packing. Farha Getting Up There The player on the button raised to 1,625 and Sam Farha made the call from the big blind. The flop came down KJ4 and both players checked. The turn was the 5 and Farha fired 2,000. His opponent made the call and the river was the 4. Farha kept his foot on the gas pedal, firing another 7,000 into the pot. The button mucked and Farha took the pot. He was at 70,000. Yang Gets Hammered Down To Size, Then Eliminated The player in seat 2 and Jerry Yang tangled preflop that resulted in seat 2 moving all in for 27,800. Yang made the call and here were their cards: Yang: KK Yang fell victim to a cold deck and the board offered him no help as it ran out 7547J. Yang took a big hit and was down to 8,000 in chips. Yang was eventually cut down to 3,200 in chips and shipped them all in preflop against the player in seat 9. Yang: Q10 The flop was favorable to Yang as it came Q97, giving him top pair. “It’s not over yet,” Yang said before the turn. If it wasn’t over then, it was sure close to being over when the A fell on the turn. The river then brought the 7 and Yang was eliminated. McEvoy’s Aces Cracked Picking up the action on a flop of 952, Tom McEvoy moved all in against his opponent. The player called and ended up putting himself at risk as McEvoy had him covered. McEvoy held pocket aces but they were officially cracked when his opponent turned 52. The board finished out 10 and 4 and McEvoy dropped to 20,000 in chips. Elezra Gets One A player raised to 850 preflop and another player made the call. Eli Elezra was in the big blind and came along as well to see a flop of K52. Elezra checked and the raiser bet 1,375. Elezra was the only caller and the A came on the turn. Elezra checked and his opponent bet 2,200. Elezra made the call againa and the river was the 8. Elezra decided to take the lead, firing 4,000. His opponent gave it up and Elezra took the pot, improving his stack to 32,000. Gored Picking up the action on a flop of 765, Carlos Mortensen fired 1,400. Dan Smith made the call and the other two players in the hand mucked. The turn was the J and Mortensen bet 3,000. Smith made the call and the 9 came on the river. Both players checked and Mortensen tabled KK and Smith mucked. Mortensen took the pot and he was at 25,000. Don’t Stand On The Tracks When The Orient Express Is Coming Through Picking up the action after the board had run out 732€96, Johnny Chan and his opponent got involved in a betting war. Eventually, the opponent tabled 77 for middle set. Unfortunately for him, Chan tabled K8 for a rivered flush. Chan raked in the pot and was up to 165,000. That was good for the overall chip lead on Day 1C. Outrunning Outhred After the board had run out K72910, there was 27,000 in the pot. A player bet 20,000 and Alex Outhred made the call. Outhred tabled pocket queens but they were no good as his opponent showed 1010 for a set on the river. Outhred threw his queens in the muck and he was down to 53,000. Dwan Tripped Up Picking up the action after the flop came down 10103, Tom Dwan led out for 1,425. Lee Markholt made the call and the turn was the 6. Dwan led again with 3,450 and Markholt made the call for the rest of his chips. Markholt: A10 Markholt flopped trips and the river brought no help to Dwan as he dropped to just over 13,000. Markholt doubled to 12,000. Left In The Deck: It’s Not Easy Being Phil Midway through the level, the tournament staff announced through the speakers that “1989 World Chammpion Phil Hellmuth has just been eliminated.” The Amazon Room erupted in cheers and applause after hearing the announcement, not quite the reaction anyone would care for. Hellmuth had been playing on the secondary feature table and made his grand entrance with UFC fighter Wanderlei Silva. He was officially TKO’d.

After some thought, the big blind called for his last 12,700 and turned over KK. Negreanu was in deep trouble as he showed QQ.

Negreanu Wins “Crazy Internet” Hand Daniel Negreanu raised from the button to 750 and was called by the player in seat 2. On the flop of 855 seat 2 checked to Negreanu who bet 750. Seat 2 called and when the K fell on the turn he checked again and Negreanu bet 1,800. Seat 2 called and things got very interesting on the river. The J fell and seat 2 checked to Negreanu who bet 2,400 this time. Seat 2 tanked for a while then raised to 5,800. Negreanu took just a moment to reraise to 11,200 and seat 2 tanked once again, asking for a chip count on Negreanu’s remaining stack (around 17,000). Seat 2 counted out a raise that would put Negreanu all in but then returned the chips to his stack. After a few minutes with the ESPN crews anxiously watching, seat 2 folded and tapped the table. Negreanu responded with, “You had the right idea,” and showed 43 for a total bluff. Seat 3 said that he was bluffing the whole time too. After several raises with air, Negreanu pulled in a nice pot and commented how the hand played out like “crazy internet stuff.” Respecting The Champ Facing a raise of 600 from the player to his immediate right, 2007 WSOP main event winner Jerry Yang repopped it to 2,600. His opponent thought it over but decided to give Yang credit and folded. Yang, like the gentleman he is, showed KK. Chop it Up, Elezra After some significant preflop action, Eli Elezra and his opponent checked down a board of K75Q10. After the final check Elezra seemed ready to muck his hand until his opponent showed just A2. When he saw that, Elezra turned over his A4 and they chopped the pot. Sam Farha Drops One Sam Farha raised to 400 from the button and the small blind reraised to 2,000. Farha made the call and the flop came down A64. The small blind bet 1,000 and Farha raised to 3,000. The small blind called and the turn was the 6. Both players checked to see the 9 on the river. They checked again and the small blind tabled KK. Farha mucked and he was down to 14,000.
