Event #5: THE COLOSSUS III - $565 No-Limit Hold'em

Dia 1a Concluído

Thomas Boivin Leads at the End of Event #5A: $565 Colossus III No-Limit Hold'Em

Nível 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Event #5A: $565 Colossus III No-Limit Hold'Em has come to and end with 93 players moving on to Day 2. Leading the field is Thomas Boivin with an outstanding 538,000 chips. Boivin made the trip from Europe to Las Vegas with a few friends to compete in the 2017 WSOP and is looking for his first-ever gold bracelet. Close behind him is Newton Deleon (433,000) and Kevon Bakhtiari (382,000) rounding out the top three.

The day started with around 2,000 players walking through the doors early this morning to take part in this perennial favorite event. The $8,000,000 guaranteed prizepool and $1,000,000 guaranteed first-place prize attracts a lot of entries and caters to all kinds of players. The field quickly grew, with late registration open for six levels and one rebuy permitted, to 2,756 total entries.

Tom Middleton burst the money bubble shortly before Level 12 began with pocket nines versus his opponent's pocket eights. There were 414 players remaining that all received a minimum cash payout of $833.

Some notables to take part in Event #5A that were unable to crack the money bubble include Kristen Bicknell, Chris Moorman, Mike Leah, Melanie Weisner, Nick Yunis, Kathy Liebert, and Kenny Hallaert. There were a few familiar faces to bag and tag heading to Day 2 that included Nadya Magnus (136,000) and 2004 WSOP Main Event Champion Greg Raymer (78,000).

Here is a look at some of the chip leaders heading into Day 2, with a full list being posted when it is available. That wraps up everything for Day 1a in the Colossus but there is still Day 1b going on and you can follow the action here.

Sparsdale Coolers Two Opponents

Nível 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Mike Sparsdale raised from early position and an opponent shipped all in from middle position. Another opponent re-jammed all in for around 100,000 in late position. When the action was back on Sparsdale, he was undoubtedly calling as he was holding the best hand in poker: pocket aces. One opponent had pocket queens and the other opponent held ace-king. The board ran out clean for Sparsdale and he now sits at the top of the leaderboard nearing the end of Day 1a.

Lopez Makes Quad Kings!

Nível 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

There was 35,000 in the pot and the board read {K-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Clubs} with three players in the hand. The action was checked around and the {K-Diamonds} turn was dealt. The big blind checked and so did Lucianos Andres Lopez. The last player to act bet 13,000. The big blind raised to 28,000 and Lopez just smooth-called. The initial better folded and they were heads up to the river.

The river was the {6-Hearts} and the big blind moved all in for his remaining 43,000. Lopez snap-called and rolled over {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} for quads and scooped a nice-sized pot.
