Somerville, Two for One

From early position, Opponent 1 moved all in for just under 4,000. Jason Somerville made the call from late position. Opponent 2 was in the big blind went all in for less.

Somerville: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Opponent 1: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Opponent 2: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{k-Clubs} which hit the set of Opponent 2 but gave Somerville a royal flush draw. He could also still catch one of the two remaining Aces while Opponent 1 was drawing to a one-outter for the side pot.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} which made Somerville his flush. He had to avoid the board pairing on the river to scoop and he did just that when the {4-Diamonds} bricked the river. With the win he eliminates two players and chips up to 32,000.

Wilkerson Avoids Blowup

From middle position, one time chip leader Dylan Wilkerson, raised to 1,300 and the player to his left called. However, the small blind moved in for 3,250 and after a moments thought, Wilkerson isolated the all in player by moving his stack in as well. The third player, who had just slightly less chips than Wilkerson, quickly folded {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} face up to the surprise of the table. Wilkerson sheepishly turned over {j-Spades}{8-Spades} and was behind the {a-Spades}{6-Hearts} of the all in player.

The flop fell {3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Clubs} improving Wilkerson's hand. The turn was the {10-Clubs} and river {q-Diamonds} which officially gave him the pot. However, the table had a good yell when the river fell because it would have given the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} broadway. Wilkerson got a little lucky that the player folded and is now up to 29,500.

Phillips Saves 75 For Flop. Still Busts

Carter Phillips raised it to 5,500 preflop (of his 5,575 behind) and the big blind called.

On the flop of {2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} the big blind bet 75 chips to put Phillips all in which of course Phillips called.

The big blind showed a monster with {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and Phillips was drawing very slim with his {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

The turn and river of {8-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} were no help and Phillips hit the rail.

Cherish These Chips

Cherish Andrews opened from under the gun to 1,350 before the player on the button made it 4,200. The blinds folded and Andrews called.

The flop came {4-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Andrews checked to the player in position and he bet 4,000. Andrews thought for a bit and decided to call.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and this time Andrews led out for 8,200. Her opponent went deep into the tank. At one point he asked Andrews how much she had, to which she responded, "about 13k more". He counted out the chips in his stack that represented the rest of her chips and found that he would have about 12,000 more. After another minute or two he finally let his hand go.

With the pot, Andrews has now chipped up to 48,000.

Gavin Smith Takes A Big Hit

Gavin Smith raised to 1,475 in late position and the player on the button re-raised all in for 10,250. Smith called and flipped over {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}.

Unfortunately for him, the all in player had {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} and the board ran out {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs} to take a huge chunk out of Smith's stack and leave him with 5,500

More Brothers

We already told you about Mason Hinkle, the little brother of bracelet winners Grant and Blair Hinkle, who played his debut WSOP event today. Unfortunately, all three brothers busted the event already, but another little brother is still around and looking to make Day 2.

Little brother of Di and Hac Dang, two of the most successful online poker players of all time, Au Dang, is in the field today and sitting with around 26,000 chips which is well above average. We'll see if he can make a deep run and maybe take a step towards getting on his big brothers' poker level
