Bury Me a Ji

Nível 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Young Ji is the Last of a Dying Breed After His Day 2 Run Came to an End
Young Ji is the Last of a Dying Breed After His Day 2 Run Came to an End

A friendly railbird named Eddie stopped by the PokerNews Live Reporting station to let us know that there had been an all-in bet and a call at Table #436. With that being the home of 2002 WSOP Main Event winner Robert Varkonyi, Day 1 chip leader Alexander Kunichoff, and the ever interesting Young Ji, we rushed over to take a look.

It was Ji who had his stack pushed forward, and his last 72,000 were at risk against Joseph Iannello. who had more than enough to afford a call. After a brief delay to sort out the chips in the pot, which saw Varkonyi play the role of arbitrator and accountant, Ji rolled over his {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} expecting to be in a coin flip situation at worst, but he was dismayed to see Iannello table the {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, putting him in a terrible spot for his tournament life.

The flop was an uneventful {4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, and when the {5-Spades} arrived on the turn, Ji stood up and sighed, before offering the table a sincere "good luck to you all."

With the win, Iannello moved above the 350,000 chip plateau, putting him in prime position to reserve a seat for tomorrow's pivotal third day of play.

Top Pair Holds for Merhom

Nível 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

We arrived at the table to see Makram Merhom facing an all-in bet on the flop. The board read {9-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, and there was over 100,000 in the pot already. The all-in bet was for 35,500, and Merhom tanked for a couple minutes. He eventually called and tabled {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for top pair. The bettor turned over {j-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for a straight draw. The turn and river were kind to Merhom, coming {7-Clubs}, {3-Hearts}. His opponent was eliminated, and Merhom sits with 200,000.

Getting Down To Business

Nível 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

The atmosphere in The Senior's Championship has turned a bit more serious than we have seen previously. It could be the fact that everyone is busy digesting their dinner or maybe it is the fact that the purple section of the Amazon Room is clearing out. With about 104 players left and only 12 tables remaining, everyone is aware that the first-place prize is in sight.

Kilroy Doubles. Gains Eliminated.

Nível 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

On a flop of {5-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Kimberley Kilroy bet 25,000 Beth Gains raised to 60,000. Kilroy tanked for a minute, and eventually announced that she was all-in. Gains called and turned over {a-Spades}{k-Spades} for a flush draw, while Kilroy held {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} for an overpair and a straight draw. The turn was the {8-Diamonds}, giving Kilroy a set, and also giving Gains outs to a chop if a four or nine fell on the river. The river was actually the {10-Hearts}, no help to Gains. Kilroy doubled up, and Gains was knocked down to 30,000.

With the big blind now at 6,000. Gains was very short-stacked. She got all her chips in the middle preflop a few hands later, but her {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} was dominated by {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}, and the board again offered no help, eliminating her from the tournament.

Two Coolers for O'Dea

Nível 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Donnacha O'Dea
Donnacha O'Dea

Donnacha O'Dea has been a force in the poker world since before many participants in year's World Series were born. He's made two Main Event final tables and has a bracelet in pot-limit Omaha. Poker seems to run in the family, as in 2011 his son Eoghan made a Main Event final table as well.

Today, however, he's been flying under the radar, quietly accumulating chips. Unfortunately for O'Dea, he was recently on the wrong end of two coolers. Four limpers entered the pot preflop, and O'Dea checked his option in the big blind. The flop came {4-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Three players checked and a player bet 6,500. Alex Kunichoff called, and then Pablo Estrada raised to 21,500 from the small blind. After tanking for a couple minutes, O'Dea raised to 50,000. Action folded around to Estrada, who thought for minute. He asked O'Dea if he held pocket fours, and then decided to call. Estrada turned over {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a full house, and O'Dea held {4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for trip fours. O'Dea was drawing to a single out, which never materialized, and the poker great lost a large chunk of his stack.

Soon after, O'Dea held pocket kings against Robert Varkonyi's pocket aces, and he's been eliminated from the tournament.
