Blend 'em and Send 'em

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Players are back in their seats and play has resumed. There are 126 of them left, meaning we lost 46 during the first two hours of play today. With the top 78 spots paying, we're now 48 away from the money.

Misdeal?

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We heard shouting coming from Table 354, and upon inspection we found out that Christopher Hunichen was only dealt one card on the button. There was also an exposed card during the deal, and the dealer replaced the exposed card before giving Hunichen his second. The dealer then mucked Hunichen's hand, and kept going.

The hand was a simple raise-and-take, but Hunichen was going off.

"I can't just keep anteing off here!" he shouted.

"Sir," a floorperson responded. "You have to inform the dealer when something like this happens."

"I never had time!" Hunichen spat at him.

"It should've been a misdeal," John Andress piped up.

The floor did their best to calm Hunichen, but he was livid, and continued to grill the dealer even after the floor had left. A floorperson doubled back to offer one final warning.

"I can still hear you from across the room," the floorperson barked. "If you don't stop, you're going to get a penalty."

Hunichen fell silent, but still visibly upset with the decision made by the staff.

Hunichen Heads Home, Andress Ascends

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Christopher Hunichen's day has come to an end, shortly following that frustrating sequence for him just reported.

On his final hand, Hunichen was all in for his tourney life before the flop with {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} against John Andress' {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. The flop came {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}, giving Hunichen hopes for a straight. But the turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {3-Diamonds}, and Hunichen was eliminated, Andress giving him a sympathetic handshake before he left.

Andress, who took second at the WSOP-C Atlantic City Main Event back in March, now sits with 184,000.

Maimone Chips Up

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

A player from middle position raised to 3,600 and Nicholas Maimone from the small blind reraised to 9,900. His opponent made it 18,900 to go and then Maimone made it 41,000. His opponent shoved all in and Maimone made the call.

Maimone held {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} and his opponent held {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}. The board ran out {3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

Maimone now sits with around 120,000 in chips.

Dorfman Calls Value Bet and Wins

Miller Dao started the action by opening to 3,600, and Randy Dorfman called on the button. Both players checked the {2-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop, and Dao checked again after the {a-Diamonds} turned. Dorfman tossed out 4,500, and Dao called.

The river was the {j-Spades}, and Dao led for the first time, firing 3,800. Dorfman went into the tank, saying something about it being a value bet, yet still called. Dao opened up {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for a pair of jacks with a ten kicker, and Dorfman tabled {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for the same pair, but with a better kicker.

Schulman Falls

With the board reading {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}, we arrived at the table to find Nick Schulman having check-raised a bet of 5,000 to 12,800. Massimiliano Martinez, though, was next to act and he shoved with the big stack. The better folded, putting the decision on Schulman for his remaining 54,000ish.

After about 30 seconds Schulman called and tabled {A-Spades}{J-Spades}. Martinez showed {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for flush and straight draws and while he didn't get there on the {6-Hearts} turn, he did when the {7-Clubs} river fell.
