May the Force Be With You
Nível 7
: 200/400, 0 ante
Leif Force is known as one of poker's more eclectic personalities, gaining fame from his appearance on ESPN's broadcast of the 2006 WSOP Main Event, in which the dreadlock sporting Ultimate Frisbee player earned over $1 million for his 11th place finish.
Force proved that his Main Event run was no fluke when he won Event #3 of the 2012 WSOP ($3,000 No Limit Hold'em/Pot Limit Omaha - Heads-Up), and he is among the 275 or so players still vying for a Pot-Limit Omaha bracelet here today.
Force is currently putting his patented patience to work while players bustout around him at a frantic pace, and in fact, he even brought along a little light reading. With a copy of fantasy novelist Jim Butcher's Furies of Calderon to keep him company as he waits for the right spot, Force has some work to do if he hopes to capture a second WSOP bracelet in this challenging poker discipline.

Corkins Doubles Through Brammer
Nível 7
: 200/400, 0 ante
A preflop raising way saw Hoyt Corkins get his last 6,300 in the pot against Christopher Brammer.
Corkins: 
Brammer: 
Aces are always nice, but they don't tend to carry as much weight in Omaha as they do in hold'em. That wasn't the cause here though as the board ran out a safe 
and Corkins' pocket rockets propelled him to a double.

Everybody Loves Raymond
Nível 7
: 200/400, 0 ante
In what has become a familiar sight so far during this barrage of bustouts here on day one, we watched another three-way all-in pot develop, and with it, another player was sent to the rail.
The flop read 
when Raymond Morgan and two opponents bet and potted until all their chips were pushed forward.
Showdown:
Morgan: 
Opponent #1: 
Opponent #2: 
When the three hands were exposed, it became clear why we lost more than one player per minute during an early level of play. Everybody had hit the flop hard, with Morgan finding top two pair, one opponent picking up an open-ended straight draw, and the other flopping a set of deuces.
Turn:
Omaha is a gambler's game, and one that requires a strong constitution to stomach the beats. Morgan found one of his four outs on the turn, and the 
arrived on the river for good measure.
Despite holding pocket kings preflop, and flopping a set of deuces with the other half of his hand, Morgan's opponent was left with the second best hand, and his stack was sent across the table.

Double Overtime = Double the Sweat
Nível 7
: 200/400, 0 ante
While nearly all of the 200+ plus left in contention for this WSOP bracelet are focused entirely on the vexing game of Pot-Limit Omaha, at least one can't keep his eyes on the table.
Dan Nicewander came to today's Day 1 dressed to impress, with a bright green special edition Chicago Blackhawks jersey declaring his hockey allegiances with the NHL Finals beginning tonight, featuring those Blackhawks and the Boston Bruins.
As the game has progressed, Nicewander's gaze has become transfixed on the television screen just twenty feet away, which is conveniently showing the national broadcast of his beloved Blackhawks as they play the Bruins in a heated, sudeen-death double overtime contest.
In a game where even the blink of an eye can cause fans to miss milestone moments, there is no doubt Nicewander wants to see his team score the deciding goal, but with only 2,200 or so chips remaining in his stack, sudden death may come faster than he hoped.

Break Fast
Nível 8
: 300/600, 0 ante
The players have been granted the luxury of an unscheduled 20-minute break, and when we find out the reason for this reprieve we will be sure to let you know.
He Shoots ... He Scores!
Nível 8
: 300/600, 0 ante
Dan Nicewander has been forced to endure an incredible amount of tension during the last few hours, as he has tried to grind the short-stack in this Pot-Limit Omaha tournament, while simultaneously sweating his Chicago Blackhawks during their epic triple-overtime thriller in the NHL Finals.
We just heard Nicewander shout out "Yes!" in a passionate display of excitement, and naturally we assumed his Blackhawks had notched the a game winning goal. Instead, it was a bad angle shot by Nicewander that somehow managed to find the back of the net.
Holding 
, the man who proudly wore his #19 Jonathan Toews jersey to play in this event, got his last 4,000 or so chips into the middle. After a couple of preflop callers were scared off when Nicewander's opponent bet the 
flop, he turned over his pocket rockets and hoped to be in front of a drawing hand.
His opponent rolled over 
for top set, however, and when a third player at the table said he folded an ace, Nicewander was left hoping for a Miracle on Ice.
Turn: 
Just like in hockey, a single shot from way out managed to decide things, and when the dropped on the river, Nicewander had secured the unlikely double. And of course, just moments later Nicewander celebrated a second time, when his Blackhawks went up 1-0 in the NHL Finals on a 3OT goal. Like they say, nothing beats run good.
