Brenes Sends One to the Rail
Livello 2
PLO
A player in middle position raised to 200, Humberto Brenes called from the hijack, as did the player on the button and in the small blind.
The flop was 
and the player first to act checked. The preflop raiser bet out 600 and Brenes raised to 2,100. The player on the button thought for a minute before throwing out 6,000 and the player in the blinds folded. After a quick count, the next player got out of the way and it was back on Brenes. He grabbed his stack in one hand, looked back at his cards and threw in the rest. His opponent moved his own stack in and the hands were turned up.

Opponent: 
Not only was Brenes' opponent coolered with top set over second set, but he even had an "Ace-blocker", meaning he had an Ace in his hand and Brenes had to have to two remaining Aces in order to be currently beating him. The turn was the 
and the river was the

Eli Elezra's Looking... Shiny
Livello 2
As level 2 began, a new wave of players were allowed to take their seats and start play. Among those players was Eli Elezra who might be difficult to recognize based on the fact that between yesterday and today he shaved his head.
Apparently he and Mike Matusow had a last longer bet in the $10,000 HORSE event and the loser had to shave their head. Elezra lost the bet and is now sporting the "Sinead O'Connor look."
