Championship: Before the Break

$3,500 Championship No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)

End of Level 23:  Blinds 10k/20k/3k ante

Players are taking 15, but before the break:

The flop read Th9c7d and Nathan Bjerno was all-in for 233k.  He got the call from Jebhar Patterson, who held pocket Kings.  Nathan had Js9h for middle pair with straight draw.

The turn was the Kd giving Jebhar a set of Kings, but then the river brought the Qd giving Nathan the straight and the double-up.

On the other table, Jacobo Fernandez opened for 45k, Steven McKoy called, then Mike Dentale raised to 95k.  Jacobo called, then Steven shoved, having both covered.  Mike tanked for a few minutes, then folded.  Jacobo took about a minute, then did the same.

Championship: Big Rivers

Level 23:  Blinds 10k/20k/3k ante

On table 40, the board read 9c6c6s7c5c and Jeff Chang jammed, sending Fernando Diaz into the tank for a couple of minutes.  He eventually folded, leaving himself with only ~250k.

On table 41, the board showed 9c4h4d9h7s and Barry Hutter bet 70k.  Mohammad Jaafar raised to 210k, sending Barry into the tank.  He eventually called to see Mohammed’s 9d8d for the full house.  Barry mucked and was left with about 250k.

Championship: Campbell Doubles

$3,500 Championship No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)

Level 23:  Blinds 10k/20k/3k ante

Robert Campbell got his last 250k in the middle pre-flop against Jeff Chang.  When the hands were tabled, Robert discovered that he was in bad shape:

Robert: KcQc
Jeff: AdKd

Then the board rolled out Qd6h4cJc9s pairing Robert’s one live card.  He doubled up to about 550k.

Still 16 players.  Average stack still 1.126 million.
