Lets Chop the Pot

Mateusz_Pater

Nível 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

The action started with Fabian Ortiz moving all in for 510,000 from under the gun. Erkut Yilmaz was seated to his left, and quickly made the call. The option was then on Jorn Walthaus. From late position, he moved all in for 2,240,000 in chips. The table folded back around to Yilmaz, who went into the tank.

“Do you want me to call you?” asked Yilmaz, after a minute to himself. “Sorry guys, I just need some time.”

He finally opted to fold his hand, as the other two both showed their cards.

Ortiz:
Walthaus:

“That’s the same hand I had,” said Yilmiz, standing up from his chair. His cards were kept to one side, so the ESPN crew could gather that information for later on.

The board ran out to see both players split the pot.

Geshkenbein vs. the TD

Nível 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

It seems like it's become a yearly tradition at the Main Event for one player to complain about showing cards to the camera at a TV table. This year, that player is Vladimir Geshkenbein, who is currently at the secondary feature table.

The tournament director just made a general announcement to the table, reminding everyone to show their cards to the camera. Then he singled out Geshkenbein, and told him specifically that he must show his cards, as per the agreement every player signs before the tournament. Geshkenbein at first seemed to brush off the reminder, and the TD threatened him with a penalty if he refused to comply.

Conversation and Cards

[user38338]

Nível 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

The conversation over at Table 425 has been especially entertaining over the last couple of levels, with most at the table in a chatty mood and all still reacting here and there to Vitaly Lunkin's interesting play a little while ago when he bet all in dark before the flop.

Chris Kinane has been relatively quiet, comparatively speaking, so just now when he raised to 100,000 over an Umang Dattani limp, Brandon Steven took the opportunity to engage him, asking Kinane where was from and what he did for a living.

Kinane explained he was from Allentown, PA, and teaches high school math, to which Curo Zuccarello (sitting to Kinane's right) joked that "the math gets a little complicated" in poker and so he may need to consult him.

After that Dattani and Keanu Tabali agreed to order beers during the last hour of play tonight. "If we're still here," added Dattani. "The way Vitaly's playing, we might all be gone."

Dattani then suggested in a deadpan manner that if one of the two of them were to bust, the other would give the player who'd busted 10% of what he won. "Um… I don't think I can do that," said Tabali with a grin, and Dattani said he was joking.

There won't be any need, then, to get Kinane to help with any percentage problems later on.
