Mike Leah

Mike Leah and Brian Hastings got into a preflop battle that saw the pair commit their stacks before a community card hit the felt. Both had lost a small portion of their 100,000 starting chips and it was unclear who was the at-risk player.

Hastings: AcAd
Leah: KsKh

The dealer burned and turned a Qh8c8d flop and Leah’s odds to win got a bit slimmer. The turn Kd changed that, though, as he spiked a boat to take a stranglehold against Hastings’ aces-up. The river completed the action with the 7d and the dealer counted down Leah’s holdings.

It was revealed Leah claimed 93,800 chips, just more than Hastings. With that, Hastings hit the felt while Leah scooped a big pot early.

Mike Leah – 197,500
Brian Hastings – Eliminated

The clock struck 12pm and cards went in the air for the $25,500 buy-in High Roller just moments ago. It’s a slow drip to start with the clock showing 14 in the game. There’s a complimentary lunch spread in the back of the room and a handful of players are grazing before taking their seats. We expect the entry count to climb steadily in the first few levels.

High Roller tournaments always attract some of the top players in the game and we expect the same this time around. Event 20 is the second High Roller on the Lucky Hearts Poker Open schedule and it has a huge history of success.

The last two $25,500 High Rollers more than doubled their $1 Million Guarantee and we don’t see any reason why today should be any different.

The High Roller entrants will start with deep 100,000 stacks and levels will run 40-minutes in the beginning. Late registration and re-entries are available until the start of Level 13 at 7:30 pm after the dinner break.

This is a two-day tournament and those with chips at the end of Level 15 will bag them up for a return Tuesday at noon.
