In a couple of years there will be no Live Reporting anymore as we know it today probably. With Twitter and the MyStack app players can update the world themselves. Randy Lew is a good example of this new breed of players who are ready for this:
Thomas Muehloecker was all in with his against his opponents . He would need to dodge an ace to survive. The flop came and that gave Muehloecker flush outs. The turn missed the flush as did the .
Muehloecker doubled up with his set of kings and he went up to 181,000 in chips.
Tommy Miller has been grinding away with his big stack. He recently just busted another player out of the tournament. He got his opponent all in when his opponent was holding and Miller was found to hold . Miller's Luck would continue as he would flop an ace with the . The turn helped his opponent slightly with the . But the river would give Miller two pair and the chip lead yet again. He went soaring up to 400,000.
Kevin MacPhee was short for awhile and had to make something happen. Yesterday, on day one, he already successfully made a comeback from 900 chips. Today, however, his quest for a bracelet was halted in 42nd place.
He pushed for 16,500 under-the-gun plus two and was called by the small blind. The big blind was relieved that the small blind called, and folded his cards immediately. MacPhee showed and the small blind tabled . The dealer set a new personal record for speed in which she dealt the board. It was so fast we at first didn't even realize MacPhee had picked up some outs on the turn. In the end, it didn't even mather as no one hit and the small blind won: | | .
Kevin MacPhee had asked the dealer to shout "Showered!" if he busted, but at first she did not comply. Later on we heard the Tournament Director call "Showered!", although it wasn't as loud as MacPhee had asked for. MacPhee is on his way to the pay out desk for the fifth time this summer. This time he'll get a card which grants him $6,905.
Jeffrey Mulder is out when he shipped his short stack all in with and after a raising war between Evan Thomas and Tommy Miller, it was Thomas and his that would face Mulder.
Mulder would need an ace, but unfortunately for him Thomas flopped a set of tens and sent Mulder packing. For his efforts Mulder would finish in 41st place for $6,905.
We picked up the action on the turn as the under-the-gun player checked to Thomas Muehloecker who was seated under-the-gun plus one. The board was | and Muehloecker bet 27,500. Without much hesitation the call followed. The river was the and the under-the-gun player checked again. Muehloecker bet out 42,500 and some time elapsed before Muehloecker's opponent said to the table "Just a second everyone". Eventually he called, but he had to muck when Muehloecker showed .
