Gloria Jackson

We saw a lot of action at the start of play today, players looking for doubles as the money bubble gets closer.

Javier Icaza moved all in for his short 13,500 stack and Grayson Ramage called to put him at risk. Icaza was in trouble with Ac5c against Ah9s but hit the 5h on the flop. The unkind 9h was put out on the turn and he was sent out early.

Jerry Wong was sitting nearby and hit the rail at the same time.

On Table 48, Pedro Idrogo opened to 6,000 and Gloria Jackson called in the big blind with 7,000 behind. She put those in the middle after the 9c6s3c flop and Idrogo called.

Jackson: 7h6c
Idrogo: AcKd

The 5s turn and 3s river were good for Jackson’s double up. In the meantime, her husband David Jackson is cruising along deep in the event as well.

The third big hand in early action saw Raja Chirumamilla open/shove for 60,500 and Joe McKeehen called after asking for a count. The rest of the table released and the hands were tabled.

Chirumamilla: AsKd
McKeehen: TdTs

Chirumamilla needed to win the race to stay in the game and he hit the Ah8h8d flop. The Qc turn and 8s river changed nothing to move Chirumamilla up and knock McKeehen down to a short stack.

Grayson Ramage – 201,000 (67 bb)
Gloria Jackson – 290,500 (97 bb)
Raja Chirumamilla – 124,000 (41 bb)
