Shak Dead on the Turn to Turner

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

Jon Turner raised in middle position to 4,200 and was met with a re-raise to 15,000 by Dan Shak in the small blind. Turner made the call and the flop rolled out {Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. Shak instantly moved all in and Turner snap called just as quickly. The flop was certainly an action one as it gave Shak the nut flush draw with the {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} but Turner middle set with {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The turn was the {8-Clubs} which gave Turner a full house and left Shak drawing dead. Turner wished Shak “good luck in the Omaha” as we presume Shak was playing this along with the $10,000 Omaha Hi-low Split-8 or Better Championship as well. The pot grew Turner’s stack to 229,000.

Long Line at Restroom Finds Phan Filling Us In

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

While poker bloggers and poker players generally occupy different spheres during the course of a tournament, the bathroom break allows a chance for everyone to meet on equal ground.

While waiting in line, we found ourselves standing next to Young Phan, who recounted his recent score with pocket aces against pocket tens. Phan remembered us asking for his name earlier in the tournament and reminded this blogger that he had been playing for 21 years and that "we should know who he his by now."

The professional tournament grinder, who has 29 WSOP cashes to his credit, was extremely polite and smiled the whole time as he chided us for forgetting his name, but one thing is sure, if he keeps knocking players out and building his stack at the rate he is going, soon everybody will know exactly who Young Phan is.

Bazeley Bangs A One-Outer

Livello 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We Missed the action ourselves but caught up a tablemate of Jacob Bazeley who recounted the action for us. Apparently, after a player opened for 5,200 from under-the-gun and another player called, Bazeley re-shoved for approximately 42,000 chips.

Only one of the initial bettors came along and that player showed down {Q-}{Q-}, which was in great shape against Bazeley's {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The player who filled us in on the action also let us know that he folded a jack, so Bazely was down to exactly one card in the deck for his tournament life.

The flop of {10-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} was extremely fortunate for Bazeley, as his miracle one-outer had been delivered. The turn and river didn't bring any help to his opponent and Bazeley found himself with the most unlikely of double-ups to remain healthy as we head down the home stretch of Day 2.

Young Snags Gutshot

Livello 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

From the hijack, Jordan Young opened with a raise only to get three-bet all in for a further 17,300. Young made the call.

Young: {8-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Opponent: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The board rolled out {J-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} to see Young snag a dirty gutshot on the river (to go along with his two live cards) to send another player to the rail while he soars to 235,000 in chips.

"That's his standard play!" stated one of Young's friends from the rail as they watched Jymaster11 tear this tournament up.
