We caught up with the action to see a lot of chips getting pushed into the middle preflop. After a raise of 1,650, Vanessa Selbst popped it up to 3,400 from the big blind. The player in the small blind plopped a giant stack comprised mostly of yellow 1,000-denomination chips into the middle, making it 15,275.
Selbst looked visibly distraught and confused at that move before announcing that she was all in. The player in the small blind called before saying "I think you've got me beat".
Selbst: 
Opponent: 
The board fell 
and Selbst was able to send a player to the rail and become one of the top stacks in the room.

Dan "Wretchy" Martin had just been moved to Chino Rheem's table when the two of them immediately tangled in a hand. We picked up the action after the 
flop with Rheem (small blind, Seat 2) firing a bet. "We gonna do this all day?" asked Martin from across the table (hijack, seat 5) before making the call. That made the pot about 5,000.
The turn brought the and another bet from Rheem, this time for 3,800. Martin deliberated a bit and then called once again. The river was the 
. Rheem looked across the felt to gauge Martin's reaction to the river card, then looked down and eventually checked. Martin quickly fired a bet of 8,500, leaving himself just about 2,000 behind.
Rheem went into the tank, then emerged ready to talk about it. He went through aloud the possible hands Martin could have. "Lay it down man," said Martin. "You think I'm going to come in here and bluff you from the get-go?" "Yes," said Rheem steadily. "Yes, I do."
Rheem asked Martin if he'd show his hand if he folded. "Nah," said Martin with a grin. "I don't know how that would affect the table dynamic." They continued for a couple more minutes before Rheem finally sent his cards to the muck.
"C'mon Wretchy... show," said Rheem. "I'll tweet it later," laughed Martin, who began composing the message out loud: "Just moved to new table," he said. "Beat Chino in a big pot..."
Martin has about 24,000 now, while Rheem slips to 8,500. Those interested in more details might check in over @Wretchy. Just remember, though, Martin knows @ChinoRheem is reading, too.
We caught up with the action to find a player all in for 7,450 on a board of 
. Vanessa Rousso was contemplating a call. Eventually she pushed out a stack to make the call. Her opponent turned up 
for a flopped set of eights, and Rousso mucked her cards.
Rousso took a hit with that hand but is still sitting above starting stack.
