Event #22: $1,500 Eight Game Mix
Dia 1 Concluído
Last night, Jon Turner was the runaway chip leader at the end of Day 1b in the GIANT. Today, at the end Day 1 in the Event #22: $1,500 8-Game he is bagging the chip lead yet again after ten levels of play.
It was touch and go towards the end of the day, with Turner doubling Mikko Hirvonen up in the second to last hand of the night. However, he won it all back and more on the final hand of the night to clinch the chip lead with a stack of 75,600.
Close behind Turner was Farzad Rouhani (68,200), David Bach (63,000) and Amnon Filippi (60,000). Other notables through to Day 2 include Valentin Vornicu (47,950), Daniel Negreanu (45,775), Anthony Zinno (33,650), Benny Glaser (25,600), Cliff Josephy (26,000), Chris Vitch (21,125),Mike Matusow (20,600), and Maria Ho (11,975).
With 134 players remaining and 70 places paid, the bubble will burst on Day 2, with a min-cash worth $2,238 and first prize worth $147,348.
It was a short day for defending champion Ron Ware, who bemoaned early on that his stack was so small that he had more Rio cash chips than tournament chips! Eventually, he was sent to the rail by Felipe Ramos after the Brazilian started a Stud Hi-Lo hand rolled up, and Ware failed to make a low.
Last year's double bracelet winner and 2009 $50,000 H.O.R.S.E champion David Bach was among the chip leaders early on, as well as John Racener and Dzmitry Urbanovich.
As one triple bracelet winner soared, another was sent to the rail, with Brian Hastings falling to Ben Ponzio. Hastings held queens against Ponzio's aces, and it looked like an upset was on the cards after a queen on the flop, but Ponzio backdoored a flush to eliminate Hastings.
Other players eliminated included Carol Fuchs, Eli Elezra, 2017 WSOP Main Event champion Scott Blumstein, Randy Ohel, Bruno Fitoussi, Matt Glantz, Martin Staszko, Bart Lybaert, and Brandon Shack-Harris.
With late registration open for eight levels, some players left it to the last minute to jump in. They included Maria Ho, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, Scott Seiver, Dan Smith, Ismael Bojang, John Monnette and Steve Zolotow.
Jeff Madsen was leading the way at the top of the pack as these late registrants battled to spin up their stacks. Ivey would send a player to the rail, as would Daniel Negreanu who had been quietly grinding it out all day, but it wasn't to be for Hellmuth on his quest for an elusive 15th bracelet, after losing a massive four-way Stud Hi-Lo pot, he was eliminated shortly thereafter.
A resurgent Bach would challenge for the chip lead once more, but Turner held on - minus the penultimate hand misstep - to bag the chip lead.
Play resumes tomorrow at 2pm in Amazon Orange. Stay tuned to PokerNews for continued live coverage of the 2018 World Series of Poker.

"Queen," the big blind said. Yu showed his for a ten low, and it was good. The big blind did show his
before mucking though.

No-Limit Hold'em
A short-stacked player moved all in from the cutoff for 2,150 before Dan Smith called in the small blind. Cyndy Violette was in the big blind and she decided to shove all in over the top with a covering stack. Smith thought for a bit then called off for about 7,000 total.
Cydny Violette:
Dan Smith:
All-in Player:
The board ran out and the short stack player earned a triple up by making a flush, but Violette earned the rest of Smith's chips as she had him covered and her pair of queens was enough. With that, Smith was sent to the rail while Violette moved over 40,000 chips.
