Damm Draws First Blood at Final Table

Livello 29

James Williams opened from under the gun and Michael Rodrigues called from middle position before Josh Damm made it three bets from the hijack. Both Rodrigues and Williams made the call. Williams drew two, Rodrigues drew one and Damm stood pat.

Williams and Rodrigues checked after the first draw, Damm bet and both opponents called. Damm stood pat again while both of his opponents drew one.

Action repeated itself after the second draw with Williams and Rodrigues both check-calling a bet from Damm. For the final draw Williams and Rodrigues drew one each and Damm once again stood pat.

With no draws left action was checked around to Damm once more and he fired another bet, this time forcing a fold from both of his opponents to take a nice pot without going to showdown.

Benny Glaser Eliminated in 8th Place ($11,849)

Livello 29

Benny Glaser raised on the button and got three-bet by Ryan Hughes in the big blind. Glaser called and then drew one after Hughes drew two.

Hughes then check-called a bet from Glaser and drew two, while Glaser stood pat.

Hughes checked again and Glaser bet. Hughes then check-raised, which was enough to put Glaser all in once he made the call, which he did.

The players each stood pat with Hughes showing 8x5x4x3x2x for an eight-perfect, while Glaser disappointedly showed 8x7x5x4x2x, which brought his tournament to an end.

The seven remaining players have now been sent to the Horseshoe's secondary feature table to continue playing to a winner.

Kessler Makes "an Advanced Play"

Livello 28

Benny Glaser raised from the small blind and Allen Kessler raised to three bets. Glaser made the call and drew two while Kessler drew one.

Glaser checked after the first draw and Kessler fired a bet. Glaser made it two bets and Kessler raised to three bets, putting himself all in and at risk. Glaser made the call and both players stood pat for the second draw.

Glaser drew one for the final draw and Kessler stood pat.

Allen Kessler: 9x8x7x5x3x
Benny Glaser: 7x6x4x3x/Xx

Kessler revealed nine-eight and Glaser threw his arms up in frustration, presumably after breaking a hand on the third draw that had Kessler beat. Glaser drew a ten for a final hand of 10x7x6x4x3x and Kessler secured a key double up, leaving Glaser as a short stack.

"That was an advanced play" Kessler stated as he scooped the pot.
