Le circuit mondial du poker

The players have bagged up their chips and day two has ended. The remaining 30 les joueurs reviendront demain à 2 p.m. They will play five more levels tomorrow and see how many people remain. At that time they will make a decision if they want to play into the night to reach a final six. Official chips counts and the end of the day recap will be posted shortly.

Sur un flop de [10d9c4h] Alan Sass bets 9,200 et Mark Seif relance à 17,000. Sass reraises all in and Seif mucks his hand. Just another aggressive pot entre ces deux joueurs de haut calibre lors de la deuxième journée.

Grâce à 13 minutes left in the last level of the day, Tournament Director Jack McClelland pauses the clock, and a random card is drawn to determine the number of hands to play at the end of the day -- and it's a six.

So each table will play six more hands, and then they are finished for the day. There are still 30 joueurs restants aux quatre tables finales.

Sur un plateau de [Kh3c2hAdAc] and 70,000 dans le pot, Alan Sass checks and Johan Storakers bets 32,000. Sass thinks for almost a minute, then mucks. As Storakers rakes in the pot he flashes [AsKc].

Perry Friedman is all in preflop with wired fours against Jumphol Srinark's pocket kings. The board runs [KcQh6d9s4d], and Srinark flops a set of kings, which he would need to beat Friedman's rivered set of fours. Perry Friedman is eliminated from the tournament.

Here are the approximate chip counts for today's featured table:

TABLEAU #4
1. Rhynie Campbell - 90,000

7Donavan Ryan - 139,000
8. Johan Storakers - 116,000
9. Maros "Premier" Lechman - 33,000

Nam Le relance à 4,500 from early position and is reraised all in by the player in seat seven. Le makes the call with [QcQd] and has seat seven's [AdJd] in trouble. The board runs [Jc8s3s3c10h], and Le eliminated an opponent.

Rohan Amin's A-9 failed to improve against Heiu Nguyen's big slick and he busted out of the tournament.

Seat two moves all in preflop for 36,600 from the small blind and Hieu Nguyen makes the call from middle position. Erik Cajelais folds from the button and the two remaining players flip up their cards. Seat two shows pocket kings and Nguyen turns up pocket sevens. The board rolls out [Jh3h2d2s8h] and Nguyen takes a hit.

Erik Cajelais limps from under the gun, Gavin Smith limps right behind him, and Hieu Nguyen raises 5,800 from the small blind. Cajelais and Smith both call.

The flop comes [KhKc8c], Nguyen parie 5,000, Cajelais calls, and Smith folds. The turn is the [5s], Nguyen fires another 18,000 into the pot which gets Cajelais to lay down his hand.

Nguyen shows [As10h], raises his arms to the sky and exclaims "I finally made a bluff!"

Steve Buckner moves all in from early position with [AcKc], and is called by Mark Seif from the big blind with [2h2s]. The board runs [Jh8c5c3sQs], Buckner fails to improve and is eliminated. His exit from the tournament area was surprisingly quiet.
