Loh Uses High Cards

Livello 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Paul Loh opened from under the gun for 5,600 and Alvin Staana moved all in right behind him. Action folded all the way back around to Loh and he called.

Loh: {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}
Staana: {10-Hearts} {10-Spades}

The board ran {6-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} and Loh's kings held, sending Staana to the rail.

We caught up with the action on a {Q-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop, where Yevgeniy Timoshenko led out for 6,700 from the small blind against his lone opponent in the big blind. His opponent called.

The turn brought the {A-Diamonds} and, taking his time, Timoshenko fired 14,800, which got a fold out of his opponent.

Timoshenko is currently sitting with approximately 100,000.

LeFort Finds River Miracle Against Gates

Action folded to Sean LeFort in the small blind. He raised to 5,000 with only Garry "Beast Mode" Gates to act in the big blind. Gates flat-called and the two went to the flop, which came down {J-}{7-}{4-} rainbow. LeFort led for 4,600 and Gates put in a raise to 11,000. LeFort made the call with a little under 60,000 behind in his stack.

The dealer placed a {Q-} out on the turn and LeFort checked. Gates fired 20,000 and LeFort jammed all in with a check-raise. He was all in for 57,000 and Gates made the call, holding top two with {Q-}{J-}. LeFort was in tough shape with his {A-}{4-} for bottom pair.

The river saved LeFort from elimination when another {4-} smacked on the end and gave him trips to send Gates' top two pair up in flames. Gates sent over the chips and was left with a little over 60,000 in his stack. LeFort moved to about 150,000.

Earlier in this World Series of Poker, LeFort placed third in the 865-player Event #4: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em. Allen Bari went on to win the event, but LeFort scooped up $348,128 for his third-place finish.

Andrew's Aces Give Him A Double Up

We reported earlier that Howard "Tahoe" Andrew was given a shout out for playing in the most consecutive WSOP's, and he is not looking to leave this event anytime soon. We just caught a double up with Andrew where he was called all in preflop, and was in a dominating position against his opponent, Marco Bianquin.

Andrew: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Bianquin: {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The flop brought Andrew a bit of a scare, coming {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The turn, the {k-Spades}, kept Andrew in the lead, and the river brought the {q-Diamonds}. Andrew registered the double up, getting him back to 32,000.

Rheem Running His Stack Up

Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

Chino Rheem opened to 4,800 from the button and found one caller in Mike DeMichele from the big blind.

DeMichele donked for 7,300 on the {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop and Rheem called.

When the {7-Diamonds} fell on the turn, DeMichele checked and it was Rheem who led out for 8,000. DeMichele called.

When the {4-Clubs} completed the board, DeMichele tanked and slowly counted his stack. It looked as if he were about to bet, but after about a minute he checked. Rheem immediately announced he was all-in and DeMichele quickly mucked.

Rheem is up to 140,000 while DeMichele has slipped to 50,000.

Mizzi Moving On Up

Sorel Mizzi

We didn't catch the hand or hands that led to this, but Sorel Mizzi, who was sitting on 32,000 a few minutes ago, now has a stack of around 110,000. Perhaps showing up two hours late was all part of Mizzi's master plan? We will be sure to keep a close eye on him as the day moves on.

Timoshenko Takes A Hit

Yevgeniy Timoshenko
Yevgeniy Timoshenko

Yevgeniy Timoshenko has always been known to take his time in making a decision, taking in all of the factors surrounding the hand. Well Timoshenko might have met his match with Teresa Duck, as the two locked horns in a hand that took about seven minutes.

The action started with Duck raising to 4,200 in the cutoff. It folded to Timoshenko, who took about a minute before putting out a raise to 11,000. About 90 seconds later, Duck put in the chips for the call, and the two took a flop of {9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. Timoshenko thought for a while, then put together a bet of 7,600. Duck cut out the chips for the call, and slid them in about 30 seconds later. The turn brought the {9-Diamonds}, and again, Timshenko went deep into thought. He decided to check, and Duck thought for just a few moments before taking the opportunity to move all in for 24,000 total. Timoshenko thought for a couple of minutes before announcing call. The two flipped their cards, and Timoshenko was in trouble.

Timoshenko: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Duck:{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

Timoshenko would need an eight and an eight only to knock out Duck, but the river came the {k-Clubs}, giving Duck the double up and taking a chunk out of Timoshenko's still healthy stack.
