Shack-Harris Folds River

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Brandon Shack-Harris was on the button in a four way limped pot and they saw a flop of {8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. One player bet out for 250 and Shack-Harris made the call as did one other and they were down to three players to see the turn card {8-Spades}.

It was checked to Shack-Harris who bet 850, picked up one caller and just two players went to the river {j-Diamonds}. A bet of 2,225 from the first to act player saw Shack-Harris fold his hand.

Cheong Eyeing Up More WSOP Main Event Success

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

"Overdue for a deep run in this," Joseph Cheong tweeted before the start of play here on Day 1b. Of course not cashing in the Main Event is heart wrenching, but in all honesty Cheong was only on a year drought.

The last time Cheong cashed in this event was in 2012 when he finished 116th for $52,718, which was nearly as good as the 114th-place finish he had in 2011. Granted, both were a far cry from the third-place finish he had in 2010, which is when he shot to poker stardom and took home a $4,130,049 prize.

It was an impressive three years for Cheong, and he's obviously hoping for more Main Event success. If his first level is any indication, he just may have it. In a recent hand, a player opened for 300 from early position and another player in middle position called. Cheong then three-bet to 900 from the big blind, the small blind called ("Nice guy to my direct left is 3/3 cold calling my 3bets. Going to be a tough day," Cheong would later tweet), and the other two players came along to make it three-way action to the {4-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Spades} flop.

Two checks saw the middle-position player bet 2,000, Cheong called, and the small blind got out of the way. The early-position player came along, and then all three players checked the {a-Hearts} turn as well as the {7-Diamonds} river.

The early-position player tabled the {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, which prompted the middle-position player to revealed the {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Unfortunately for them both, their hands were no good as Cheong had the best of it with the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}. Send the early pot to Cheong.

Set-Mining With Kings

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Yaron Wasserman recorded his first and only cash at the World Series of Poker in 2005, finishing 415th in the Main Event for $16,055. After doubling up on one of the very first hands on Day 1b, he's in prime position to make another run.

According to Wasserman, he and Dustin Graves put in 17,000 each before a flop of {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. When our reporter arrived, the remainder Graves' stack - roughly 13,000 - went in the middle, and Wasserman made a quick call.

Wasserman: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Graves: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Wasserman faded an ace on both the turn ({j-Hearts}) and the river ({4-Diamonds}), and Graves was eliminated.

"I knew he had aces," Wasserman said, dragging the pot. "I just wanted to see if I could hit a king on the flop."

"You were drawing to one out," said a player at the table. "I had ace-king."

A Big Boat For Lussier

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

We picked up the action on a {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds} flop when Roger Lussier apparently had check-raised his opponent from the small blind. Lussier had 1,750 out in front of him while the player in the cutoff was thinking of his next move with 750 already invested on this street.

Eventually Lussier's opponent three-bet to 4,350 and Lussier called rather quickly.

On the turn the {2-Clubs} hit and both players checked. The river was the {7-Clubs} and Lussier lead out for 8,000. The player in the cutoff tanked for a solid minute before eventually making the call.

Lussier tabled {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} for the biggest possible full house and he raked in this pot.

Hall Starts Well, Smith Wins Some Back

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Galen Hall has got off to a flying start and has already added to his stack by a third. He's sat two to the left of French pro Manuel Bevand so we expect a few battles between those two as the day goes on.

In the same section of the Amazon Room is a table where Joseph Cheong and Justin Smith are seated together. The latter was involved in a hand that saw the player under the gun raise to 300 and Smith called from three seats along. The flop came down {4-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, the initial raiser bet 350 and Smith called.

The turn was the {Q-Spades} and both players checked. The {5-Clubs} completed the board and both players checked again.

Smith's {J-Spades}{8-Spades} was stronger than the {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts} shown by his opponent and he rake in the pot.

We have also spotted British duo Mike Hill and Oliver Price in the Orange section of the room. Price recently finished fifth in the $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em event for a cool $158,064.

Where's My Seat?

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Mexican professional poker player Angel Guillen rocked up slightly late to his table but unfortunately there was someone sitting in his seat.

Once the tournament director was called over, it was revealed that the player in Guillen's seat actually had that seat for tomorrow's Day 1c flight. However the player went to the cage earlier today and asked to change into Day 1b and was told that it would be fine but wasn't issued a new seat.

Consequently the player was moved to an empty seat with the stack that he had already played while Guillen took a seat in his original seat with a fresh stack of 30,000.
