The floor was called to Table #366 a moment ago with some controversial action having just played out.
It was determined that Barny Boatman bet 10,000 chips into a 20,000-chip pot after the river on a board had been revealed.
The player to Boatman's left potted it, moving all in, but Boatman thought he had just called, tabling his losing . His opponent held and was expecting to get paid, but the dealer mucked the aces and determined Boatman was folding, considering he said nothing at all.
Once the floor turned up, Boatman explained he thought he had been called, but would have folded to a pot sized all in bet. He was handed a nine-hand penalty for exposing his hand with action pending, but saved himself some chips.
Matt Marafioti opened for 2,000 under the gun, and Dwyte Pilgrim reraised to 5,100 in the small blind. Apparently, as Isaac Baron was tanking in the big blind, Matt Marafioti shoved all in. The floor was called, and after Baron raised pot, Marafioti was informed he could take his bet back and do whatever he wanted since the action had changed. He did so, and folded his hand. Pilgrim took his time, thinking for over a minute before mucking face up.
Baron took the pot, but afterwards he was informed had he just called, Marafioti's bet would have stood since the action hadn't changed. At this, Baron expressed regret at the way he played the hand while Marafioti was overjoyed to have gotten away from what he believed to be the second-best hand.
Jennifer Tilly started fast but has taken a huge nosedive here of late.
We caught her betting 4,000 into a 5,800-chip pot on a flop only to have her opponent raise it up to 10,200. She potted it for all her oppenents chips, 27,200 effective and he made the call, turning over .
Tilly was in tough with and failed to improve on the turn and river.
Brian Rast got the last of it in with against the of Jeff Gross. All of the drama was sucked out of the hand when the flop came , giving Gross a straight. The turn ended it officially.
We've been given the official numbers, and the total entrants stands at 160, with first place claiming just under $400,000, while a min-cash in 18th will be worth $21,341.
Dan Shak is running like a god and Jason Somerville just found out the hard way.
Somerville defended his big blind against a 1,500-chip open from Shak on the button, then check-raised for the rest of his chips when Shak fired 2,500 at the flop. Shak made the call with and Somerville's needed help.
"Do you ever not have a hand?" joked John Juanda, as the turn and river sent Somerville home.
Erik Seidel was heads-up with 2013 WSOP $5,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em bracelet winner Davidi Kitai when he check-called a bet on the turn with the board reading .
Kitai checked the river, but called relatively quickly when Seidel made it 5,000 chips to see his hand. Seidel turned over and raked in the pot after Kitai mucked.
