McNamara Flats and Shoves
Livello 20
2-7 Single Draw
Brian Haveson opened to 11,000 from the button, and Don McNamara flatted from the small blind. In the big, Septi Popescu squeezed in a reraise to 33,000, and Haveson laid it down. McNamara wasn't having it, though, and he didn't waste much time announcing an all-in shove for another 140,000 on top.
Popescu thought it over for a long while, eyeing up both his and McNamara's stack before finally surrendering. He flashed 
(
) as he mucked, and McNamara gets a boost with no showdown.
David Benefield Eliminated in 15th Place ($10,246); Daniel Makowsky Eliminated in 14th Place ($10,246)
Livello 20
Pot-Limit Omaha
We didn't exactly see how the money got in, but it looks like Daniel Makowsky opened with a raise, then Kendall Fukumoto shoved, then David Benefield re-shoved. That's our best guess based on the table positions, and we walked up just in time to see Daniel Makowsky shove the rest of his own chips in as well. He was at-risk for about 52,000, Benefield for 48,100, and Fukumoto had the barely covering stack. Let's see 'em:
Makowsky: 
Fukumoto: 
Benefield: 
Everyone was amused by the upcoming flip, and they started calling for the cards they wanted. "Ace!" Makowsky pleaded. "Just give me an ace!" He got one, but the 
flop was a disaster. Fukumoto picked up a set, and Benefield had a wrap draw to work with. "Diamonds," someone said. "Who's got diamonds?" Nobody did. The turn 
was no change, and the river 
was a brick as well. Fukumoto's set of jacks hold up, and he's sent two players to the rail, vaulting up over 200,000 in the process.
Jason Stern Eliminated in 16th Place ($10,246)
![[user135779]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Pot-Limit Omaha
From under the gun, Shaun Deeb raised to 10,500 before Jason Stern came over the top with a pot-sized bet of 37,500. The action then folded back around to Deeb who smooth-called, before betting enough to Stern all-in after the flop of 
. Stern committed the rest of his stack and the cards were tabled:
Stern: 
Deeb: 
Stern's wrap had only mustered up a pair of eights, but he was still out in front by the time the 
fell on the turn. Not for long - Deeb hit trips on with the river 
and Stern departed the Amazon Room in 16th place ($10,246).

Dags Bests Benefield
Livello 20
2-7 Single Draw
David Benefield opened to 10,500, and John D'Agostino called. Daniel Makowsky called from the big blind, too. Everyone took one card, Makowsky checked, and Benefield bet 24,000. D'Agostino firmly announced the call, and Makowsky folded.
D'Agostino showed up 
, and his nine was good. Benefield is starting to get short now, down around 50,000.
Four-Betting For Profit
Livello 20
2-7 Single Draw
Josh Weiland opened with a raise from middle positon, and Shaun Deeb three-bet an additional 23,500. When it came back to Weiland, he paused for a moment before announcing an all in. He and Deeb both started the hand with about 270,000 or so, and it actually looked like Weiland may have had the slightly covering stack.
We never got to find out. Deeb gave it a long look before reluctantly folding. That knocked him back to 235,000, but he's since won another pot to recoup those losses.
Updated Chip Counts
A check on the field sees Travis Pearson surging ahead. The pack has caught Shaun Deeb, and they're all a long way from tracking down Pearson for the moment.

Scott Bohlman Eliminated in 17th Place ($10,246)
2-7 No Limit
Having not been able to find any momentum early on, Scott Bohlman finally open-shoved from early position but was snapped off by Tad Jurgens before the draw. Both players stood pat, but Jurgens' was too good and Bohlman was sent to the rail in 17th place to collect $10,246.
Shaun Deeb now occupies his seat and we are down to 16.

Are They Taking This Game Seriously?
Livello 20
Badugi
Shaun Deeb limped in from under the gun, as did John D'Agostino from UTG +1 before the action folded to Daniel Makowsky in the small blind. Makowsky called and then Kendall Fukumoto checked his big bind before he and D'Agostino drew two cards each. Makowsky and Deeb took one each.
All the players looked at each other and laughed, then on both the second and third draws, they all took one each and checked around before Fukumoto showed down 
(
) for the winning three-card.
It's a shame that just because Badugi is not, in the full sense of the word, a "true" form of poker (i.e. not a five-card hand game), it shouldn't mean that they turn it into a joke - particularly at a WSOP event.
Lee Invents a Wheel
Livello 20
Razz
We walked up to a three-way pot on sixth street.
Brian Haveson: (x-x) / 
/ (x)
Chris Lee (x-x) / / (x)
Roland Isra: (x-x) / 
/ (x)
On sixth, Haveson was the one doing the betting, and Lee called quickly. Israelashvili tanked for a long while before calling, and he'd fold on seventh street. Haveson checked seventh, and Lee liked his hand enough to bet it. Haveson called.
"I got a wheel," Lee announced, and Haveson pounded the table with his fist. Lee rolled over 
in the hole, and his wheel knocks Haveson down to 215,000. We'll have to wait for Lee to stack up before we can count him down.
