Spinella Builds Massive Stack to Lead as Money Bubble Looms

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante
Anthony Spinella

Day 1 of Event #10: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed is in the books after another massive turnout of players came out to action at the Rio. Last year's field was a whopping 1,663 entrants, but this year destroyed that with 1,920 players registering for this event. A larger field size means more money and this year the winner of this event will take home a whopping $544,388 along with the coveted World Series of Poker gold bracelet.

When play began at noon, players were spread out across tables all over the Rio Convention Center. There were tables in all sections of the Rio Pavilion, taking over both the cash game and satellite sections for the time being. The Amazon Room also had a section that contained a couple hundred players in this event. Needless to say, it was jam packed with poker from wall to wall as far as the eye could see.

Some of the notables we were able to spot throughout the day included Angel Guillen, Liv Boeree, Vanessa Selbst, David Williams, Lex Veldhuis and Richard Toth — all of Team PokerStars Pro. Unfortunately for the squad, that crew of players didn't make it too far in this event and hit the rail. John Racener, Shawn Buchanan, Andy Black, Lauren Kling, Faraz Jaka, Chino Rheem, Galen Hall, Greg Raymer, Tom Dwan, Antonio Esfandiari and Andrew Lichtenberger were some of the pros who joined them on the rail.

Not every tournament is made up of pros though, even though they might have a lot of money and be a famous face. Actor and comedian Brad Garrett fits that bill and even though he comes out to play the WSOP every year that he can, still considers himself an amateur player. He was here for most of the day before falling at the end. You can read about his demise here, but Garrett was here long enough for our very own Kristy Arnett to call the clock on him. Check that out in the video below.

Now of course, this is poker and if players are losing chips, others are winning them. A few of the players who bagged up a-whole-lotta chips include Ryan Welch (156,300), Bryan Colin (128,100), Anders Taylor (117,000), Zachary Clark (105,700) and Alexander Wice (87,200). Those numbers are impressive, especially considering that every player began the day with just a measeley 4,500 in chips, but the chip leader moving into Day 2 is Anthony Spinella. He bagged up a truck load worth 223,000. That's by far the largest stack in the room after Day 1 and we'll see it all in action starting Tuesday at 2:30 PM PT in the Amazon Room.

Day 2 will begin with under 200 players left in the field. The board read 188 at the end of the day, but that could be off one or two places. With 180 places getting paid, only a handful of players returning tomorrow won't make the money. Hopefully we'll see you right back here to follow along with all the action right here on PokerNews.

All Amit

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

The player under the gun raised to 2,100 and Amit Makhija raised to 5,100 on the button. UTG moved all in and Makhija quickly made the call with {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. He was racing against {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} but hit the {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{K-Clubs} flop. The {7-Hearts} turn and {10-Spades} river bricked out and the player was eliminated while Makhija had chipped up to 70,000.

The next hand, Makhija raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and Tommy Vedes made it 6,100 from the small blind. Makhija min raised to 10,200 and Vedes four bet it to 30,500. Makhija moved all in and Vedes tanked. He finally folded and Makhija flipped over the {9-Clubs} as he tossed in his hand. He was now up to 105,000 while Vedes was down to around 20,000.

Williamson Keeps it Going

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

After being down to a single black chip and getting up to 600, Robert Williamson III was all in yet again under the gun. Cliff Josephy called from the small blind and Amit Makhija raised it to 2,100 from the big blind. Josephy made it 3,000 more and Makhija folded. RW3 showed {K-Clubs}{10-Spades} while Josephy held {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}. The flop was a great one for Williamson as it rolled out {K-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. The {5-Diamonds} turn and {10-Diamonds} were safe and Williamson was now up to 2,100.

The very next hand, the cutoff called and Williamson moved all in from the big blind. The cutoff made the call with {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts} but wasn’t in great shaped against the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} of Williamson. The board rolled out a safe {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Williamson was now up to 6,000.

Three More Hands

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

The tournament supervisor has just instructed the dealers to deal three more hands on each table, after which, play will cease for the day.

Sida Stacks Up

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Sida Yuen has moved up to 63,000 in chips after taking a pot off Bryan Colin as we edge ever closer to the end of Day 1 of the tenth WSOP event.

On a flop that read {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, the player under the gun checked to Colin who bet 3,200. Yuen flat-called from the button and the UTG button folded before the dealer brought down the turn of the {8-Spades}.

Both players checked after the turn, then Colin check-called Yuen's bet of 4,400 on the river of the {9-Spades}, only to muck after Yuen revealed {A-Spades}{3-Spades} for top pair.

Colin is down, but by no means not out, holding 109,500 in chips.

Chip and a Chair for Williamson

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

So often in poker you hear the expression "all you need is a chip and a chair." Well Robert Williamson III is trying to make that saying a reality. Williamson III lost a pot that knocked him down to a single 100 chip. That chip went in on the next hand as the ante. Amit Mahkija raised to 2,000 and got one caller. The players checked down a board of {8-Clubs}{8-}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}. The players flipped up {K-}{J-} and {A-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, but Williams flipped up {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} to get up to 600.
