Samuel Rosen was seen going to the bounty table to pull the envelopes he had earned throughout the day. After a couple of $1,000 pulls he made his way to the payout window after getting eliminated in 12th place.
Alexander Jesionek open-jammed a stack of 265,000 from early position and Josh Reichard three-bet jammed a stack of just under 800,000 in the cutoff before Qing Liu re-shoved a slightly larger stack on the button.
Alexander Jesionek: 5?5?
Josh Reichard: A?J?
Qing Liu: K?K?
Disaster had struck for former runaway chip leader Reichard as he had run into kings and was at risk of being eliminated after doubling up half the table. The flop of 8?10?9? made it a sweat as Reichard picked up an open-ended straight draw, but the brick runout of 3?10? confirmed a double elimination for Liu.
The Oracle Red Bull Formula One racing team released a promotional video ahead of November��s Las Vegas Grand Prix and it's an action-packed preview of what F1 has to offer when it invades the Strip this fall.
Readers might remember hearing about the race car tearing through the Wynn Las Vegas last November. It appears that was part of the production for Red Bull's epic race through Las Vegas.
On a board of J?A?9?2?, Dylan Linde led from the small blind for 65,000 and got called in late position by Camille Brown.
The K? rolled off on the river and Linde went into the tank for a moment before moving all in. Brown thought over her options for almost two minutes and eventually put the chips in for a call.
Linde tabled J?9? for a flopped two pair and Brown flashed A?3? before making her exit in 16th place.
But did you know that Thursday night��s festivities marked the first PokerStars Players Party in Las Vegas in 13 years? It was way back on July 11, 2010, during the annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) that the online poker giant rented out the entire nightclub at the Palms for an epic party that featured an exclusive performance by none other than Snoop Dogg.
As Day 2 of the $1,650 NAPT Main Event was winding down on Thursday night, players were invited to Resorts World��s famed Zouk Nightclub from 8-11 p.m. for free drinks, appetizers, and entertainment. While Snoop Dogg was NOT in the house sippin�� on gin and juice, plenty of notables were in attendance.
Foremost among them was 17-time WSOP bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth, who earlier in the afternoon busted the Main Event about a dozen spots shy of the money. Donning his trademark black and gold tracksuit complete with matching Luxon Pay hat, Hellmuth was joined by his sister, Anne, a 33-time Special Olympics gold medalist visiting from Madison, Wisconsin.
Hellmuth stayed busy rubbing elbows with various industry movers and shakers while taking time to snap selfies with fans before ducking out around 10 p.m. to register the $5,300 8-Game tournament late taking place upstairs.
David Levy opened from under the gun and Anze Smajd defended in the big blind.
Smajd checked on the flop of 4?Q?4? and Levy continued for 22,000. Smajd check-raised to 50,000 and Levy quickly three-bet jammed for around 300,000 to bring a quick fold from Smajd.
