Nine tables here in the Orange section of the Amazon room are being moved in conjunction into the Red section of the Brasilia room.
With the Orange section of the Amazon room normally reserved for the 4:00 p.m. tournaments, the Event #54: $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Low that is set to take place there has already been pushed back to a 6:00 p.m. start time.
With 20 tables already empty, more Monster Stack tables from the Orange section will have to be cleared as Event #54 is expecting to draw a decent showing of players looking to get there Omaha Hi-Low fix - the third last Omaha event of the series.
Aram Oganyan face a bet of 6,700 on the turn of a board reading . He raised big enough to put his opponent all in and she sat quietly thinking about what to do. Suddenlu she started laughing and checked her cards again before making a seemingly reluctant fold saying. “Nice bluff.”
Another player said he had already folded a set. Oganyan said he wanted to show his cards to just her but the dealer pointed out that was not allowed so the mystery will have to remain.
Kereshmeh Klangefeldt moved all in for her last sub 15,000 chips and her opponent told her, “I got them back to back.” before calling and turning over . Klangefeldt said she was dead and showed her but was reassured it wasn’t over yet.
The flop befuddled the whole table for a moment as the dealer put out [ fpr a set a piece. “You could still hit an eight.” came more unlikely reassurance, but the turn and river saw Klangefeldt eliminated.
Another round of seven tables are being moved from the Orange section of the Amazon room into the Pavilion room.
The Orange section is now down to just 12 tables as space continues to get cleared for Event #54 while simultaneously making this event easier to manage from the tournament directors viewpoint.
Martin Staszko has just been moved to a new table and busted a player pretty quickly. Brian Macnevin from Stony Plain was stony faced as he collected his belongings and left the table but Staszko was bouncing about in his chair like an excited kid.
Staszko has more than doubled his chips since that start of the day and is likely to give his new table a tough time with them.
A further six more tables have been moved from the Orange section of Amazon room into Pavilion.
We are currently down to the final four tables and expect them to move shortly to leave the Amazon room with tables in the Purple and Tan section only.
