Vornicu Off to a Sharp Start Again
Nível 2
: 150/300, 25 ante
He reached a remarkable feat, bagging a back-to-back chip lead in WSOP bracelet events, and, to make it even more unbelievable, he did it in one day. While Valentin Vornicu couldn't squeeze more than $3,734 for 88th place from his great field position in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Event, he's yet to come back for Day 2 of THE GIANT, which is still several weeks away.
In the meantime, Vornicu has plenty opportunities to try stealing the headlines again. Well, he's doing his best in the $1,500 Stud Hi-Lo event. After being a little disappointed with a lack of reporters' attention until his outstanding performance on Day 1b of THE GIANT, Vornicu won't certainly fly under the radar at the 2017 WSOP anymore.
No matter what event is on the schedule, Valentin Vornicu has chips. Less than two levels into the stud hi-lo tournament, Vornicu is already guarding nearly three times as much than what he received when he sat down. He's playing roughly 20,000.
Another pot went his way a few moments ago, and here's how it unfolded:
Vornicu had the bring-in with the 
and a player with 
completed. Another player called but he eventually laid down on the fourth street for just a cameo appearance. Vornicu also called.
Vornicu paired his threes right away but it was his opponent who bet. Vornicu led out on the fifth street, though, and both players placed in one bet on the sixth too. No bets were made on the seventh.
Valentin Vornicu: 
/ 
Opponent: / 
Vornicu showed 
for trips and his opponent couldn't compete with that.

Kassela Scooped
Nível 3
: 200/400, 50 ante
Frank Kassela completed with the . David "Bakes" Baker and Randy Ohel, who follow Kassela in the table seat order, both folded, but a player from a few seats over raised with . Kassela called.
Kassela remained passive throughout the hand but his opponent didn't miss a bet on any street. His board showed four cards qualifying for a low and Kassela called every bet. The pot looked to end in a chop as Kassela spiked a pair of jacks on his board on the sixth street.
Kassela: / 
Opponent: / 
However, Kassela looked into 
for two pairs, fives and threes, and he couldn't reach the high half of the pot as he held only

Bach Sits Down With a Hat-Trick in Sight
Nível 3
: 200/400, 50 ante
Hats were a thing in poker decades ago and one can't see many players wearing this type of fashion accessory anymore. One of the last cowboys who are yet to change their hats for caps, however, is David Bach.
He's wearing one today, just like on any given day in the office. But there's one more thing that catches one's eye when looking at Bach in today's field. It's tied to his left forearm and it's golden. We're not certain which of his three bracelets Bach chose to sport today, but it's almost guaranteed it's not the one he earned back in 2009.
Bach has already added two more pieces to his jewelry box at the 2017 World Series of Poker, and he doesn't seem to be done yet. While last year brought several double champions, no one managed to win three events. Bach has a decent chance with over 30 bracelets still up for grabs.
One of them will be dedicated to the $1,500 Stud Hi-Lo winner, and Bach took his chances. He's sitting right to Andy Black and, while he's now down to 5,600, it's still too early to leave him among scratches.
Bach is aiming for a hat-trick, and that leads us back to the story about hats. Throwing hats in a celebration of a three-goal game is a hockey habit. But it may as well transition into poker, should Bach win his third this year. He could serve himself during the celebrations. His hat is ready.

Bonomo Cracks Aces With a Bingo Hit on Seventh
Nível 3
: 200/400, 50 ante
Other notable crushers are joining the field and another decent table has formed in the Amazon Purple section. Two pilots of Table 129 are Scott Clements and Justin Bonomo, and the latter has just won a sizeable hand.
Bonomo completed with the 
and the battle reduced to just two players on the fourth street where one of the players had on his board. He led to the pot and only Bonomo didn't get scared away.
The fifth street brought an interesting dynamic as Bonomo raised, despite having seven-four-nine out. The sixth street was checked by both players for a change, but Bonomo earned another bet on the seventh street, where he hit exactly what he needed to hit.
Opponent: / 
Bonomo: / 
Bonomo announced a straight, showing 
for proof. His nine-high straight comprised of his all three hole cards as Bonomo cracked the aces in the last minute.
"I had aces out," sighed Bonomo's opponent.

Defending Bring-In With Connor Drinan
Nível 3
: 200/400, 50 ante
Connor Drinan belongs to the group of players who are still waiting for their first WSOP bracelet win. Drinan is also that type of a player who can never be cut from predictions, leaving his debut victory to a question of when more than if.
Beast both live and online, Drinan is an accomplished player in no-limit hold'em and beyond. He's trying his luck in the $1,500 Stud Hi-Lo today, and the stars' constellation was in his favor in the last few minutes of the third level.
Drinan, whose left-hand opponent is Jeff Lisandro, had the bring-in in two consecutive hands. He won them both.
Hand #1:
Drinan brought in with the and a player with the completed. Another player came along with the 
and so did Drinan. The player with the eight bet out on the fourth street, earning two calls. Drinan, however, led out himself on the fifth street, forcing two folds.
Player one: / 
(folded on the fifth street)
Player two: / 
(folded on the fifth street)
Drinan: / 
Hand #2:
Drinan was dealt the and paid the bring-in again. A player with the completed and another player with the joined the contest. Drinan called as well. The original aggressor bet out on both fourth and fifth streets, and both of his opponents called each time. Drinan then bet the sixth street, and the hand still remained three-handed as they continued to the seventh street where it was the original aggressor who bet again. Only Drinan called, and he was right.
Player one: / 
Player two: /
Drinan: / 
Drinan's opponent mumbled something about having nothing, turning over 
for a pair of sixes. Drinan declared queens before rolling over his 
to scoop another pot.
