Slezak Wheels Himself Out of Danger

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

The button raised to 3,000, and then small blind three-bet to 12,000. Without hesitation, WSOP bracelet winner Robert Slezak moved his 16,000 stack into the middle. The button folded, and the small blind called.

Each took one card, with the small blind catching a 10x9x7x5x3x. Slezak showed that was no where good enough, and he revealed Ol' Number One, 7x5x4x3x2x.

"Make sure to refer to me as 'Bracelet Winner Robert Slezak' when you post this," he requested.

Ace Good For Shoreman

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

A player opened to 2,500 from under the gun and was called by Jon Shoreman in early position.

Both players took one card before checking to showdown. The under the gun player revealed he had paired up his eight, sending the pot to Shoreman holding Ax8x5x4x2x for decent value with an ace-high holding.

Liberto Makes a Move

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

An early position player raised to 2,500, and the button cold-called. From the small blind Justin Liberto assembled his 28,400 in chips in ranks in front of him.

After due consideration from both, the early position player and the button mucked, and Liberto dodged elimination.

Dirksen Punches Out Cunningham

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

"I can feel myself warming up. I'm going to knock someone out," said Dustin Dirksen as the cards were coming out.

True to his word he raised 3,000 from early position, and from middle position Allen Cunningham called all in.

Dirksen and Cunningham each tossed one card. Dirsken added an Ax to his 7x6x4x2x, while Cunningham's 9x7x5x2x was spoiled by another five, and Dirksen scanned the table for his next victim.

Kelsall Adds Some More

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Andrew Kelsall opened to 3,000 from the cutoff and was called by a player in the big blind.

Both players took one card after which action checked to Kelsall. He decided to bet, making it 10,500 to go. That was met by a fairly quick fold from his opponent to keep the Pennsylvania native chipping up to sit amongst the big stacks in the room.

Ko Doubles Through Rheem

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

In a battle of the blinds, Young Ko moved all in from the big, and after some jibing wordplay, Chino Rheem called.

Rheem drew one, and the Ko had a decision to make with his convertible jack Jx9x6x4x2x.

He opted to stand pat, and Rheem began an agonizing squeeze. "It's a no-sider," he said excitedly, but then revealed that it was a three that paired his hand, and Ko doubled up.

Sprungl Pulls Off Audacious Bluff

Livello 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Kenneth Po opened to 2,500 from middle position before Benjamin Rolle three-bet to 8,000 in the cutoff. Troy Sprungl then cold four-bet to 20,400 out of the small blind, getting a quick fold from Po. Rolle went into the tank, thinking over his decision for quite some time. Eventually he decided to let his hand go but was shown the bad news after Sprungl turned over 4x4x3x2x2x for the bluff. "That's why I didn't have very many of those" remarked Rolle as he watched his chips shipped Sprungl's direction.
