Schneider Seeks Second H.O.R.S.E. Bracelet of the Summer; Soulier Looking for Second Title in Three Years
Welcome back to the 2013 World Series of Poker Event #29 $5,000 H.O.R.S.E. Yesterday, 261 players took to the felt and created a prize pool of $1,226,700. After eight one-hour levels of play, just 151 remain in contention for the $318,955 first-place prize. Today, 119 of those player will go home empty handed, which means 32 will make the money. Chris Klodnicki is the favorite to earn a payday as he begins the day as the chip leader with 65,100.
That said, two very experienced H.O.R.S.E. players a nipping at his heels. The first is 2007 WSOP Player of the Year Tom Schneider, who won his third gold bracelet just last week in Event #15: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. Schneider, who was featured in PokerNews’ popular Where Are They Now? series two months back, starts the day second in chips with 62,600.
The other man to keep an eye on is France’s Fabrice Soulier, who begins the day third in chips with 61,100. Soulier won this very event back in 2011 (the buy-in was $10,000 back then) when he defeated 239 other players, including Shawn Buchanan in an epic heads-up battle, to win the championship bracelet and $609,130. Can Soulier, who obviously has some H.O.R.S.E. chops, with the title for the second time in three years?
If he does, he’ll have to clear a field that still includes mixed-game specialist Adam Friedman (61,000); former November Niner Eric Buchman (50,100); Argentina’s pride Nacho Barbero (48,000); current Player of the Year leader Daniel Negreanu (45,000); eight-time bracelet winner Erik Seidel (41,100); Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi (29,500); thirteen-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth (29,500); and Dan Kelly (24,000), who has already cashed seven times at the 2013 WSOP!
Action will recommence at 14:00 PST, and the plan for the day is to play ten levels, break the money bubble and get as close to the final table as possible. Join us then as we bring you all the latest and greatest for the summer’s premiere H.O.R.S.E. tournament.

Matthew Ashton: /

We picked up the action on fifth street when Matthew Ashton paired queens and fired out a bet. Both Chris Klodnicki and Sergey Rybachenko called, and then the same action occurred on sixth. All three players proceeded to check sixth and Rybachenko showed the 
. Ashton then tabled the 
for both a flush and a low.
Klodnicki mucked, Rybachenko followed suit and the table wondered aloud why Ashton didn't bet the river.

Pollak Can't Beat Flush
Nível 9
Stud Hi-Lo
| Benjamin Pollak | /     / |
| Steve Conigliaro | /     / |
We picked up with the action on fourth street to find Benjamin Pollak and Steve Conigliaro heads up in the hand. Conigliaro checked over to Pollak who fired out a bet. Conigliaro called to see fifth street where he paired up his sevens. He took the lead and fired out a bet and Pollak called.
Conigliaro bet once again on sixth and one last time on seventh. After Pollak called the bet on seventh, Conigliaro fanned 
for an ace-high club flush. Pollak picked up his down-cards, looked at them for a moment, went to muck, looked at them again, and then finally threw them again. Conigliaro dragged in the pot and now has about 21,000 while Pollak has fallen to about 20,000.
