Blaszkiewizz knocks out a player

Livello 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

We caught the action on the turn with 1,500 in the pot and the board reading {9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Facing a bet of 700, Blaszkiewizz raised to 1,500, and his opponent thought for a minute before calling, leaving himself just 200 left. That last 200 got in on the river, the {5-Spades}, and Blaszkiewizz showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for a flopped set, and his opponent was eliminated.

Bad Beats Abound

Livello 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

When Michael Sussman and another player got all their chips in pre-flop, Sussman's {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} was trailing to his opponents {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. The board then ran out {10-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} to give Sussman a Broadway straight, and the win. Sussman yelled "Send it!" as his opponent stormed away from the table. His opponent was crippled, but not eliminated, yet he seemed to disappear after the hand.

Main Event Dealer Dealt His Last Hand

Livello 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Shaun Harris, who dealt at the 2010 Main Event Final Table and also got 24th at this event last year, is out.

Under the gun, Harris raised to 175 with one caller in middle position. The cutoff then re-raised to 625 and after tanking for a couple minutes, Harris re-raised to 2,500. The cutoff snap shoved for a little under 3,000 with a call from Harris who held {Q-}{Q-} to the cutoff’s {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}. The board ran out {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} to cripple Harris’ stack down to 1,075.

The next hand, the player under-the-gun limped, the player on the button raised to 275, and a dejected Harris moved all in from the big blind for 1,075. The player under-the-gun then shoved his whole stack for close to 3,000 with a quick fold from the player on the button. Harris flipped over {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} to the UTG’s {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}. The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} to send Harris to the rail before the end of the first level.

Both players checked the {10-Hearts} and the river came the {7-Hearts}. Gamarra called a 600 bet, and mucked when his opponent showed {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for rivered trips.
