Level 10: 500/1000/100 Ante

A wild hand ensued in the Seniors Event with some incredible four-way action.

Seat 5 raises to 2,200 and is called in Seat 8 by Gary Webster and Seat 9 by Barry Simon. Then Lucy Carbrere pushes her last 11,000 into the middle.  Seat 5 folds and Webster then ships his 13,000 chip stack in as well.  Simon, who has both players covered, makes the call on both players. The cards are turned over and off they went.

Cabrere
Webster
Simon

The flop is friendly to Simon as it rolls off leaving him in the lead, Cabrere in trouble and Webster stunned.  But the comes on the turn giving Webster the lead and a few extra outs to Cabrere.

But there was no help on the river with a harmless sending Cabrere to the rail and Simon shaking his head.

So the wild action continues in Event 9 as we close in on 40 players remaining.

Level 10: 500/1000/100 Ante

“Miami” John Cernutto has been fighting for his tournament life for the past few levels.  But he finally caught a break on a board.  Having checked off the turn, his opponent checked the river and Cernutto quickly pushed his remaining stack of around 20k into the middle forcing the fold and getting him back to around 40,000.

While John has survived, the rest of the field has not.  At this point we are already down to 45 players approximately halfway through to today’s scheduled end time of 11 PM ET.  At this rate, it may be a very small returning field for tomorrow’s Day 2.

Level 8: 300/600/75 Ante

Sometimes not falling back on stereotypes is hard as we found out in the Seniors event.

One player actually questioned the tournament director at the start of the break if they players could go take a nap .  The tournament director then jokingly got on the mike and offered the players the option of napping if they so chose.  Lots of laughs, ooohs and aahhhs came out from the players getting ready to leave the room.

Sometimes the oldies are the goodies.
