Smith Snags an Early Lead

Livello 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Dan Smith opened for 5,500 from the cutoff and was called by both Joseph Elpayaa and Jean Fracois Talbot. Action was on Gavin Smith in the big, who said, "We gonna have a family pot?," as he looked down at his hole cards.

Apparently not, as Smith then flung out a raise to 27,000. Everyone folded.

"I wasn't bull-shittin' guys," Gavin said as he slammed down {A-}{K-} face up.

Gavin is up to 172,000.

Dempsey Bricks Flush, Inizan Doubles with Top Pair

James Dempsey is now the table short stack
James Dempsey is now the table short stack

Marc Inizan opened under the gun to 4,000 and James Dempsey three-bet next to act to 10,200. Once the action returned to Inizan, he made the call before donking out 14,00 on the {6-Spades}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop.

Dempsey considered his options before pushing the action up to 36,700 only to have Inizan jam for 103,300 as the gold bracelet holder made the call.

Dempsey: {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Inizan: {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

With Inizan in the lead, he would still need to fade any club, ace or running cards for trips or a straight. The {J-Hearts} on the turn saw him only needing to avoid an ace or clubs, and when the river landed the {J-Spades}, Inizan was ensured the double to 231,000 as Dempsey was left with just 41,000 in chips.

Can We Wear Headphones?

Livello 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
"I wish I could listen to that new Lady GaGa single. Heard it's a killer!"
"I wish I could listen to that new Lady GaGa single. Heard it's a killer!"

After contesting a pot recently with Thorsten Schafer, Justin Bonomo requested a ruling on whether or not players were allowed to wear headphones.

With tablemates Schafer and Gareth Teatum both wearing headphones, Bonomo requested the issue since he too wanted to wear them.

"I know we're in the money, but I just want to check" asked Bonomo to the Tournament Director.

No more then thirty seconds later, and announcement was made to the remaining field that - like every WSOP event - once players reach the money, headphones and electrical devices cannot be used at the table.

For Bonomo and the select few still bopping away to tunes or drowning out table talk will now have to handle the music-less and talk-heavy tables!

Flop Raise Win for Diaz

Livello 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Gilbert Diaz limped the button and Scott Baumstein completed from the small blind as Tommy Vedes checked his option.

Baumstein took the lead on the {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop with a bet of 2,000 which Vedes called before Baumstein raised it up to 7,200.

Baumstein quickly mucked, but Vedes took slightly longer before tossing his cards into the muck also.

Jordan Young opened his button to 4,500 and Dan O'Brien defended his big blind before checking a {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{K-Spades} flop.

Young continued for 2,800 and O'Brien made the call before the {6-Diamonds} landed on the turn. O'Brien checked, and then called a 11,300-chip bet from Young before both players checked the {Q-Spades} on the river.

O'Brien tabled his {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Young mucked his hand.

Seidel Slips

Livello 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

In a blind vs. blind situation, Nikita Lebedev raised to 6,000 from the small and Erik Seidel called.

The flop came {2-Hearts}{J-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Lebedev c-bet for 8,500. Seidel again called.

Not backing down, Lebedev fired again for 17,000 when the {3-Hearts} fell on the turn. Seidel thought better of it and mucked.

Seidel is currently sitting with 133,000.

James Dempsey Eliminated in 39th Place ($13,368)

Livello 1 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
James Dempsey - 39th Place
James Dempsey - 39th Place

In a battle of the blinds, WSOP gold bracelet holder James "Flushy" Dempsey found himself all in against Yasuhiro Waki in the big blind.

Dempsey: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Waki: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

With Dempsey in dominated shape, the {Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop gave him some backdoor chop draw, and when the {7-Spades} landed on the turn, he would need a ten to take the lead or any king, queen or three to chop.

Unfortunately for the British player, the {2-Spades} landed on the river to send him home in 39th place for a $13,368 payday as Waki climbs to 230,000 in chips.

Jeff Williams opened to 4,600 from under the gun only to have Chris Klodnicki three-bet the small blind to 11,000.

JP Kelly moved all in for 40,300 from the big blind to force Williams out before Klodnicki made the call.

Kelly: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Klodnicki: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} to see Kelly double through to over 80,000 as Klodnicki slips to below 90,000 in chips.

Elpayaa Doubles Smith

We aren't exactly sure how the hand played out, but Dan Smith has managed to grab a double through Joseph Elpayaa.

Smith held {A-Spades}{K-Spades} to be in the lead against Elpayaa's {A-Hearts}{2-Spades}, and after the {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} board was spread, Smith double to over 300,000 as Elpayaa was left with just 51,000 in chips.
