Cassidy went into the tank for several minutes before eventuall making the call and drew one to his 8-6-5-2, while Mercier drew one to his 9-6-5-2. Mercier caught a 10 and Cassidy began squeezing out his river card. “It has spots,” he said referring to the fact that it wasn’t an ace, two, three, or paint card. He then went to the lower edge ofthe card to reveal three dots and eventually flipped up a 7 to stay alive and grow to 95,000, while Mercier falls to 30,000. Baker Takes a chunk From Danzer David Baker opened to 4,500 and George Danzer three-bet to 16,500. Baker made the call and drew one card, while Danzer stood pat.

The pot was worth more than half a million, but any excitement died when the 8 hit on the turn to give Oppenheim a full house, leaving Ferguson drawing to only a straight flush with one card to make it. The A hit on the river and Ferguson was eliminated, while Oppenheim saw his stack grow to around 2.2 million. Razz Van Alstyne Knocks Sagstrom Down James Van Alstyne was heads up with Erik Sagstrom, letting the Swedish pro do all the betting until check-raising Sagstrom just before the last card was dealt to each player.

The flop came down Q94 and both players checked. The turn was the J and Ferguson led out with 11,000. Bari made the call and the two players saw the 3 fall on the river. Ferguson tried one more time, firing 28,000 into the pot. Bari thought for a bit and decided to look Ferguson up. Sure enough, Ferguson tapped the table and showed A5 for a whole lot of nothing. Bari tabled 1010 and took down the pot. He was up to 180,000 after starting the hand with 140,000. Ferguson dropped form 350,000 to 300,000. 2-7 Triple Draw Sagstrom Takes Massive Pot Eli Elezra, Erik Sagstrom, Nikolay Evdakov and Phil Ivey all had five bets in the pot prior to the first draw. Elezra and Ivey drew two cards while Sagstrom and Evdakov drew one apiece. Sagstrom then bet and received three calls. Eveyone took one card on the next draw and the action checked around. Elezra, Sagstrom and Ivey each took one card on the last draw while Evdakov stood pat. Sagstrom then bet and received a call from Evdakov. Ivey folded but Elezra raised to 24,000. Sagstrom made it three bets to 36,000 inducing a fold from Evdakov. Elezra called and Sagstrom turned over the nuts, 7-5-4-3-2 to take down the massive pot and grow his stack to around 640,000. Limit Hold’em Alaei Busts Another Opponent Daniel Alaei raised to 12,000 preflop and the short-stacked seat 7 raised to 18,000. Alaei called and the seat 7 put his remaining chips in blind before the flop. The flop came 887, and Alaei called and showed 98 for trips. Seat 7 showed K9, and following a turn of 3 and a river of A, he was eliminated. Alaei boosted his stack to around 400,000. Hellmuth Busted After a flop of K63, Phil Hellmuth and Chris Ferguson each put 18,000 into the middle. The turn was the 4 and Hellmuth checked and Ferguson bet 12,000. Hellmuth called for the remainder of his stack and turned over A6 for second pair. It was not enough, however, as Ferguson showed KQ for top pair. The river was the 7, giving Hellmuth no help and he was eliminated just before the conclusion of Day 2. Ferguson’s stack was up to 470,000.

Pot Limit Omaha Oppenheim Passes 2 Million While Eliminating Jesus Later in the level David Oppenheim was heads up with Chris Ferguson. Ferguson raised 27,000 and Oppenheim called from the button. When the 863 came on the flop Ferguson led out with 45,000 and Oppenheim made a pot-sized raise to 132,500. Ferguson thought for a while then pushed all in for more than 200,000 extra. Oppenheim made the quick call and they showed their cards. Ferguson – Q1097 Oppenheim had two pair while Ferguson had a club-flush draw. The pot was worth more than half a million, but any excitement died when the 8 hit on the turn to give Oppenheim a full house, leaving Ferguson drawing to only a straight flush with one card to make it. The A hit on the river and Ferguson was eliminated, while Oppenheim saw his stack grow to around 2.2 million. Razz Van Alstyne Knocks Sagstrom Down James Van Alstyne was heads up with Erik Sagstrom, letting the Swedish pro do all the betting until check-raising Sagstrom just before the last card was dealt to each player. Sagstrom called the bet but after being dealt the 5 he was forced to fold and miss out on a big pot, flashing another 5 in the process to indicate he had paired it. The loss put Van Alstyne around 400,000 and dropped Sagstrom dangerously low to around 160,000. Player Tags: Chris Ferguson, David Oppenheim, Erik Sagstrom |
