Doug Polk Isn't Good Enough to Fold

Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

This time, Polk checked, and Grovijohn bet 100,000. Polk thought for a couple minutes, confirmed the bet size, and then called.

Grovijohn tabled for sevens full, and Polk's response was, "That's a boat. Full house will win."

A few seconds later, he let out some frustration. "Uh! Whyyyy?" and then he told Grovijohn with a smile, "If I was a better player I coulda laid it down... But I'm not."

zedmaster84

Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

David Ormsby started the day well above average and has since been doing some damage at his table, taking over the control and far biggest stack. Just now, he called the shove of a short stack out of the small blind on the turn of a nine-high board and tabled . The player at risk showed for second pair, and the river blanked to see Ormsby rake in yet another pot.

Player Disqualified From the Tournament

Webjoker

Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

When players returned from dinner break, one player's seat was empty, and the roughly 630,000 in chips he previously had in front of him were gone, as well. It turns out that this player had been banned from all Caesars properties and thus barred from entering World Series of Poker tournaments.

The player had knowingly bypassed security, going to great lengths to hide his real identity when registering for this tournament. When tournament organizers found out, his stack was terminated, and the chips were removed from the tournament. He left the premises without incident. His tournament buy-in remains in the prize pool, so the payout is not affected by this incident.
