Just now we saw Vandersmissen having reached the third draw in a hand in which his opponent took one and he stood pat, then when checked to Vandersmissen bet his last 350. His opponent chuckled as he explained he had to fold, showing four of his cards — — as he did.

Last time we saw Greg Raymer, he was sitting slightly below his starting stack. Well he lost a series of hands that led to his early bustout, and while we didn't catch the hands, he tweeted some details on what led to his early demise.

On the Wong Track

"Well, that hand was a trainwreck."

So said Brandon Wong with a grin just now after losing a decent-sized pot to an opponent who on the end had tabled an -low to scoop the chips. Wong is off to a slow start today, but his train ran well all of the way to the end of Event #50: $2,500 10-Game Mix (Six-Handed) a few nights ago when he won his first WSOP bracelet.

Baxter Gets Some Back

Nível 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Seven-time WSOP bracelet winner Billy Baxter had a rough start today to slip under 2,000, but just now earned a few back in a three-way hand involving Justin Bonomo.

After Bonomo had opened from early position, Baxter three-bet, his neighbor the left called the reraise, and Bonomo called as well. Baxter then stood pat through all three draws while Bonomo and the third player drew two cards twice and then just one.

Both of Baxter's opponents called his bets after the first two draws, but only Bonomo with a bit of reluctance called the final bet. Baxter quickly tabled a number four — — and Bonomo mucked.

Nível 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Phil Galfond was a late arrival, and he's already seen his stack slide down into the danger zone in the early going.

Just now Galfond raised from middle position and got a single caller from the big blind. Both drew two on the first round, with Galfond's opponent then check-raising him and Galfond calling. Galfond would draw one card on each of the last two rounds while his opponent stood pat. The big blind bet on the second and Galfond called, then both checked on the end.

At showdown the big blind turned over , and Galfond mucked, now down to just over 1,000.
