Going to War

Livello 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Jesper Hougaard raised to 3,500 on the button and received a call from the recently-moved David "Devilfish" Ulliott in the big blind. The Devilfish then check-called a bet of 4,400 on the {2-Hearts}{J-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, leading to the {J-Hearts} turn. Again Ulliott checked and Hougaard bet, this time 11,000.

The Devilfish snap-folded before telling Hougaard: "I guess you and I are going to war, pal."

De Ja Vu All Over Again For Mercier

Yesterday we reported on a hand where Jason Mercier knocked out three players when he made a backdoor flush draw. While we didn't see much of the hand just now, it looks like he has just done it again, eliminating Chance Kornuth and Brandon Paster. The board was {3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and after catching Mercier's hand just before it was flipped over, he had {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a backdoor flush. With that pot, Mercier is now at 235,000.

Watch Out for Dwan

Tom "durrrr" Dwan has been slowly building a stack here in the early goings of Day 2. In a recent hand, a player in the cutoff had raised and received a call from George Lind on the button. Action was then on Dwan in the small blind and he bet pot, which totaled 14,400.

The cutoff quickly folded, followed by Lind a short time later. Dwan took down the pot without so much as a flop, bringing his stack to around 122,000.

Waiting for the Right Time

Livello 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Shaun Deeb called us over to the table to report an "incident." According to Deeb and Chance Kornuth, Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Jason Mercier had just informed the table that the blinds were up . . . when he was on the button . . . six minutes into the level. Deeb and Kornuth were clearly joking around and simply giving Mercier a hard time.

"You guys are retarded," was all Mercier could shoot back.

Hachem Slips

With the field now down to 88 players, the action at the tables is starting to become more subdued, but we did manage to pick up a hand between 2005 WSOP Main Event champion Joe Hachem and Gregory Bastin.

We picked up the action from the flop of {6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}; Hachem checked to Bastin who led out for 2,200. Hachem deliberated, then smooth-called before the dealer produced the {Q-Clubs} on the turn.

Hachem checked, Bastin bet 4,700 and again, Hachem went into the tank. After about three minutes, Hachem laid his hand down.

Senti Takes a Little Off Selbst

Action folded to Jason Senti in the small blind and he opted to limp. Chip-leader Vanessa Selbst checked her option in the big and it was heads up to the {K-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop. Senti led out for 1,800, which Selbst quickly raised to 7,800. Senti made the call and both players proceeded to check the {8-Diamonds} turn and {A-Spades} river.

"Straight," said Senti as he flipped over {Q-Spades}{K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{9-Spades}. It was good as Selbst released her hand.

Chiu Busts Haavisto

David Chiu bust Ville Haavisto
David Chiu bust Ville Haavisto

A series of raises saw Ville Haavisto get his stack all in preflop from the small blind against David Chiu in the big blind. When the cards were turned up, Haavisto discovered he was in trouble and in need of some help.

Chiu: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Haavisto: {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{{J-Hearts} flop was no help to Haavisto, and neither was the {2-Clubs} turn nor {6-Diamonds} river. Chiu's aces held while Haavisto was sent to the rail.
