Montgomery Ascends With Aces

Livello 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

We missed the action, but from what we can gather, Scott Montgomery was involved in a pot that was four-bet all in. According to Montgomery's twitter, his opponent opened to 450, Montgomery made it 1,500 to go, and his opponent moved all in for around 20,000 more. Montgomery had {A-}{A-} against his opponent's {A-}{K-} and the aces were able to hold when the case ace came on the flop. This pot brings Montgomery's stack to 71,000.

All Lex Does is Check-Call, Check-Call, Check

It was folded around to Sammy Farha in the cutoff who also folded but when he did so, his cards collided mid-air with the dealer’s arm to expose {9-}{2-}. It was then folded to Lex Veldhuis in the small blind who raised to 625 only to be met with a three-bet to 1,800 from the big blind. Veldhuis made the call and check-called his opponent’s bet of 1,800 on the {Q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop.

On the {5-Spades} turn, Veldhuis again check-called the big blind’s bet, this time for 4,500 while both players checked the {9-Diamonds} on the river. Veldhuis turned over {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} for eights up which was good for the win when the big blind mucked, unless Farha would have stuck around with his monster of course.

Hey Mickey!

Livello 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

John Orr limped in the hijack and Mickey Appleman raised to 550 from the cutoff. Camton Michaels called from the small blind and Orr called as well. The flop came {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and action checked over to Appleman who bet 1,500. Michaels called while Orr got out of the way. The turn brought the {a-Spades} and Michaels bet out 3,300 which Appleman called. After the {6-Diamonds} came on the river Michaels again bet out 3,300 and Appleman tossed out the chips to call.

Michaels flipped over his {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for a pair of aces but found his hand was no good against Appleman's {a-Hearts}{10-Spades} for two pair. Appleman scooped up the pot to bring his stack back up to 29,000.

Danzer Loves His Diamonds

Team Pokerstars Pro George Danzer raised to 900 on the button, and the small blind 3-bet to 2,100. The big blind folded, and Danzer made the call. The flop brought all diamonds, coming {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, and the small blind c-bet to 2,350. Danzer called, and the turn came the {4-Diamonds}. Again, the small blind led out, this time for 5,000, and again, Danzer called. The river brought the {4-Spades}, and the small blind shoved for his last 10,000, and Danzer snap called. Danzer showed {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for the nut flush, and his opponent said "I have kings with the king of diamonds," as he mucked his hand and headed for the rail.

A Few for Annette

Livello 2 : 100/200, 0 ante
Annette Obrestad
Annette Obrestad

Annette Obrestad opened with a raise to 400 from under the gun, then the player in the cutoff three-bet to 825. It folded back around and Obrestad called.

The flop came {K-Clubs}{2-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Obrestad checked, her opponent fired 750, and Obrestad called. Both then checked the {7-Clubs} turn.

The river brought the {3-Hearts} and a bet of 1,100 from the 2007 WSOPE Main Event champion. Her opponent thought a moment, then let his hand go.

Obrestad sits with 32,800 now. Incidentally Jason Alexander (who appears to have photo-bombed this pic) is sitting one table over behind a stack of about 46,000.

Ruthenberg Chipping Up

With the board reading {3-Spades}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{8-Spades}, Ruthenberg checked from the big blind to the player under the gun who bet out 3,000. An early position player got out of the way and Ruthenberg made the call.

Fifth street came the {J-Hearts} and Ruthenberg tossed out a bet of 8,000. His opponent made the call and Ruthenberg turned up {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a rivered flush. His opponent mucked his hand and Ruthenberg was able to drag the pot.

First Feature Table Elimination

Livello 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

We've lost our first player who started the day at the featured table. We missed the action before the turn, but with the board reading {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} Duwayne Kosi ended up all in holding the {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} against Balaz Biri's {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Biri's two pair was in the lead but Kosi had a flush draw. The river brought the {2-Spades} which changed nothing and Kosi was sent to the rail while Biri chipped up to 43,000.

Arieh Eliminated

Livello 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Preflop action had left three players still in the hand, including Josh Arieh in the big blind. Together the trio had built a pot of 6,100.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Spades}, and the small blind checked. Arieh fired a bet of 2,400, then the player in late position raised all in for about 20,000. The small blind got out, and after tanking for a bit Arieh called the raise, committing his entire stack of about 19,000.

Arieh tabled {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for top pair, but was behind his opponent's {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. The turn was the {2-Spades} and river the {8-Clubs}, and Arieh -- who finished third in the WSOP ME in 2004 -- hits the rail before the end of Level 2.

Danzer Keeps on Dancing

We only walked up to the table to see the full {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board out and George Danzer facing a bet of 1,500 from an opponent in middle position. Danzer made the call and the player announced, “Ace high.” Danzer turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for kings and eights to take down the pot.

The following hand, a mid-position player raised to 600 and received calls from Nick Maimone (hijack), Danzer (cutoff) and Jordan Rich(big blind). When the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, it was checked around to Danzer who bet 1,600 which was enough to get all of his opponents to fold.

Ho Out-flushed

After a plethora of limps, six players saw a flop of {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades}. All six of the players checked once again and the turn came {10-Spades}. The player sitting in the big blind bet out 300 and everyone folded around to Maria Ho who made the call. The {6-Spades} hit the river and Ho's opponent bet out 1,000. Ho made the call only to see her opponent table {K-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for the king high flush. Ho flashed the {Q-Spades} and then mucked her hand.
