Todd Terry

Mattern With a Big Double

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Arnaud Mattern got all of his chips in preflop with {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} versus the {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} of an opponent. The flop was {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and Arnaud hit a set. His opponent still had outs, but the {10-Hearts} turn gave Arnaud a full house. Only a king would bust Mattern, but the {a-Diamonds} fell on the river and he doubled up.

O'Dea Loses Some Ground

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Former November Nine member Eoghan O'Dea is down to 2,200 after losing a large pot a short while ago.

O'Dea was on the button and three-bet a 500 raise from middle position to 1,400 only to see the big blind move all-in for 3,275 in total. The initial raiser folded and O'Dea tanked for close to a minute before opting to call.

O'Dea: {J-Spades}{7-Spades}
Big blind: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

O'Dea was not in good shape as his opponent had him dominated. O'Dea spiked a seven on the {7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop, but couldn't improve further as the {10-Diamonds} and{6-Diamonds} completed the board.

Ho Leads

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Hawaii's Duy Ho, who finished fifth in a $1,500 buy-in event at the 2012 World Series of Poker, looks to be our chip leader right now having amassed 36,000 chips.

Also nicely stacked are Jared Hamby and Thayer Rasmussen who have 18,500 and 12,000 stacks. Hamby is currently updating his chip stack and beer count via his Twitter account and has so far consumed eight beverages. It seems to be working well for him, let's see if it continues to do so.

Schwartz Cracked

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

We didn't catch the hand, but Dennis Phillips was nice enough to fill us in on the details. Facing a preflop raise, Rodrigo Portaleoni called and Ylon Schwartz moved all in for about 8,000. The original raiser got out of the way and Portaleoni insta-called with {q-}{q-}.

Schwartz had the best of it with {a-}{a-}, but a queen came on the turn and Schwartz couldn't improve on the river. Just like that, Schwartz was cracked and busted.

Sunny Shining

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Sunny Chattha is getting it quietly over in silver section and is approaching 10,000 chips.

Sean Jazayeri is also doing well for himself and is currently armed with an 8,250 stack, while Spanish sensation Sergio Aido is no longer in the hunt for a bracelet having busted as the fifth level came to a close.

Around 700 players remain in this event, meaning the tournament has lost over 1,000 players during the first five levels!
