Players are now on a 30-minute dinner break. Anyone wishing to get into this tournament has until the start of Level 5 to late register, so time is ticking. Shortly after registration is closed we'll have the official numbers and prize pool information for Event #8: $2,500 Eight-Game Mix.
2013 World Series of Poker
Nível: 5
Triple Draw 2-7 - Hold'em - Omaha 8 125 250 250-500
Razz - Stud - Stud 8 50 75 250 250-500
No-Limit Hold'em - PLO (No Ante) 25 50 100
The players have returned from the dinner break and are starting Level Five.
We learned of a very interesting story over the dinner break from bracelet winner Larry Wright, who you may recall as the winner of last year's WSOP Event #30: $1,500 2-7 Draw Lowball for $101,975.
According to him, he was home in Corpus Christi earlier today but was delayed traveling because of hurricane and tornado troubles. Wright eventually made it to Vegas, but he was in danger of missing this event. In order to make it here before registration closed, Wright offered the taxi driver $200 if he could get him from the Las Vegas airport to the Rio Convention Center (which is where the WSOP is being held) in less than 15 minutes.
We're guessing the cabbie liked the sound of that because he had Wright at the front doors in nine minutes! Wright was all smiles that he made it in time to compete for his second gold bracelet.

Razz
Barry Greenstein was heads up with a pair of fives and an ace on board, while his opponent had a queen and two babies. Greenstein's opponent check-called his bets on fifth, sixth and seventh streets.
"Full house," Greenstein sarcastically announced, turning over /. His opponent took the pot.
On another table, Daniel Negreanu pushed all in with two pair and an open ended straight draw in PLO and doubled through his opponent. Negreanu is back near the starting stack after he was down to just a few bets a short while ago.

Brian Rast, showing a king, was heads up with an opponent showing an ace. He called his opponent on all streets.

Rast had three hearts on his board, so he was surprised to see his opponent show a well-disguised heart flush.

Mueller proceeded to bet every street and Scott called him down. "Trip eights," Mueller stated before revealing his cards.
"Great last card," Scott said of his own hand before showing the for two pair, which was apparently just enough to get him to throw in 500. Mueller, who was getting a massage, was pushed the pot and chipped up to 18,500 while Scott dropped to 10,000.

Razz
A player in early position completed with a four, and Ivey raised with an ace. Another player with a four cold-called, and the original raiser called as well. Ivey caught a deuce and fired again, but the cold-caller raised after getting a deuce as well. The other player got out of the way, and Ivey called. His opponent caught good again with a six, and Ivey must have caught bad because he folded before we could even catch his fifth card.
Nonetheless, Ivey has doubled his stack from the last time we saw him.
