Some Chip Counts

Dillon Gets His Kings

After Michael Guzzarid just beat queens with king-ten it was Pat Dillon who survived a similar scenario. Dillon was all in for 13,300, and one player had called his shove. A third player got involved and pushed. He isolated Dillon who was going for a triple up.

Pat Dillon{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Opponent{A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{A-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, and Dillon lived to fight another day. He's still pretty short, but at least he's not out.

Davor In The Lead Again

Davor Derek had the chip lead of the tournament on Day 1 after hitting quads, and he just managed to get himself at the top of the leader board again.

Derek raised to 7,400 pre flop after which his opponent moved all in for around 25,000. The action came back to Derek who snap-called.

Davor Derek{K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Opponent{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, and Derek added some more chips to his stack.

Benton's Busto

Aaron Benton has just left the tournament after losing his chips to Fabrice Ho. Benton was all in pre flop and tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. This was the same hand he doubled up with earlier, but {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds} proved to be a bit stronger after the board ran out.

The board showed {A-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and Benton was knocked out.

Sixty-Five

Big One For Hockin

The board read {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} when Antonio Fazzolari check-called a 20,000-chip bet from Paul Hockin.

On the river the {2-Diamonds} showed up, and Fazzolari checked again. Hockin threw out 43,000 and Fazzolari called after some thinking. Hocking showed {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, and took down this big pot. Fazzolari was crippled and plays on with just 4,000 chips.

Ajez The Survivor

"I am the survivor," Najeem Ajez just said to us with a smile after he found a lucky double up. Ajez was all in pre flop for his final 14,000, and the showdown went as following.

Najeem Ajez{A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Opponent{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and Ajez double up after hitting a six. The money is still far away for Ajez, but his hopes stay alive!
