Bissinger Moves Above a Million; Li Has a Bluff to Show

Niveau 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Christopher Bissinger
Christopher Bissinger

Three ways to the {7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{k-Spades} turn, Gary Bodley bet 100,000 in the small blind and was called by Christopher Bissinger in a middle position. Dan Smith also called in the cutoff and they headed to the {3-Clubs} on the river. All players now checked and Bodley tabled the {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a missed straight and nut flush draw.

Bissinger had that beat with the {6-Clubs}{2-Spades} and once Smith mucked his cards, the table went wild. With claiming the large pot, Bissinger moved above one million in chips.

Another hand concluded the level and it was Fred Li who jammed into Stanton Tentnowski on the {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} river. Tentnowski ultimately concluded that Li had no bluffs there and mucked his {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} face up, to which Li revealed his {9-Hearts}{8-Spades} for just a pair of nines.

Strelitz Hits One-Outer to Avoid His First Bubble

Niveau 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Daniel Strelitz
Daniel Strelitz

On the stone money bubble, Dan Smith put in a massive raise from the button before Maxx Coleman moved all in from the small blind for around 150,000. Daniel Strelitz moved in behind him from the big blind for around 113,000 and Smith called.

"I've never stone-bubbled a live tournament before," Strelitz said.

"You really want to say that now?!" someone at the table asked.

Daniel Strelitz: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Maxx Coleman: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Dan Smith: {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The flop landed {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} to give Coleman a big lead with a set of tens. "Oh my god," Strelitz moaned before the dealer put out the case {q-Clubs} to give him a better set. "Oh my god!" he said again.

The {a-Diamonds} on the river didn't change anything and Strelitz tripled up to avoid bubbling, while Coleman received a small side pot to also stay alive.

Daniel Weinman was all in and at risk on the bubble for 305,000 and Carlos Loving was his opponent.

Daniel Weinman: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Carlos Loving: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Cada Cannot Hold With Kings

Niveau 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Cada
Joe Cada

In a three-way all-in, David Goodman was the shortest stack of just 38,000 and up against Joe Cada as well as table big stack Michael Asti.

David Goodman: {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Joe Cada: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Michael Asti: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop left Canada on the ropes with just one king still left in the deck. Goodman had a ton of outs with his flush draw and instantly got there on the {5-Diamonds} turn to secure his triple up while the {10-Spades} river brought no miracle escape for Cada.

Kalidas Intercepts Another Bluff from Ponakovs

Niveau 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Krishna Kalidas
Krishna Kalidas

Most of the table gasped as Krishna Kalidas was seen picking off a bluff by Aleksejs Ponakovs for his tournament life.

On a board of {6-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, Kalidas had {6-Spades}{4-Hearts} for two pair and had called off with his last 60,000 on the four-flush board. Ponakovs' cards had already been turned face-down.

"I would never have called!" someone at the table reacted.

Earlier in the day, PokerNews saw Abbas Alikhani make a similar hero-call for his tournament life against Ponakovs, showing the $100,000 High Roller champion's table mates aren't afraid to go to war against him.

Cada Dealt Kings vs. Aces in Blinds as Cohen Departs

Niveau 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Joe Cada
Joe Cada

Jonathan Cohen jammed a stack of 54,000 in middle position before Joe Cada called in the small blind. Sydney Krugh snap-called in the big blind with a stack of 27,000.

Sydney Krugh: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Jonathan Cohen: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Joe Cada: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

It was a massive setup for Cada in the blind-against-blind situation. The board ran out {3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and Krugh improved to a set to triple up.

Cohen was eliminated and left with his dog Riley as Cada was awarded a side pot, which the 2009 Main Event champ was less than enthusiastic about winning.

Ponakovs Out-Flops Seymour; Big Hero-Call from Alikhani

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Abbas Alikhani
Abbas Alikhani

Zachary Seymour opened to 6,000 from under the gun and Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet from the cutoff. Seymour called when the action folded around.

Seymour checked on the flop of {2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Ponakovs checked back. Seymour then led out for 27,000 on the {3-Spades} turn and Ponakovs called.

Seymour checked on the {7-Clubs} river and Ponakovs checked back. Seymour shrugged before showing {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} for ace-high, while Ponakovs showed {k-Spades}{9-Spades} to win the pot with a pair of nines after the frisky preflop raise.

"What a play! And he three-bets and get my set out," said Taylor Grassmick.

The very next hand, Ponakovs got to the river against Abbas Alikhani on a board of {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. With around 60,000 in the middle, Ponakovs moved all in to put Alikhani at risk with his stack of 59,000.

"Bluff-catcher. That's all I have," Alikhani said as he contemplated a call.

Eventually, Alikhani tossed in his stack for the call. Ponakovs showed a bluff with {j-Clubs}{9-Spades} for jack-high and Ponakovs revealed {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} to show he made a big call for his tournament life with third pair.

"Back in the game!" Alikhani cheered as he raked in the pot.

Eslami Hits Quads; Smith's Bad Luck Continues

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ali Eslami
Ali Eslami

Ali Eslami opened in early position and Daniel Strelitz flat-called in the small blind. Spencer Smith took the opportunity to three-bet jam a stack of 42,500 from the big blind and Eslami four-bet to 95,000. Strelitz folded.

Ali Eslami: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Spencer Smith: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}

Smith was in trouble as he had run into kings and the flop of {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} improved Eslami to a set.

"That's not good," reacted Smith.

The {8-Diamonds} on the turn created some sweat potential as Smith picked up a gutshot straight draw but the {k-Clubs} arrived on the river to give Eslami quads to eliminate Smith, who won two Circuit rings earlier this year at WSOPC Cherokee for a total of $214,571.

"I NEVER WIN ANYTHING!!!" the two-time ring winner yelled sarcastically as players and floor staff erupted in laughter.

Double-Knockout for Weinman; Jorstad Also Eliminated

Niveau 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Espen Jorstad
Espen Jorstad

The board was all but rushed away as Daniel Weinman raked in the pot with the {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, having beaten the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} of Brian Luo and the {a-}{4-} of Jonathan Pastore to leap up on the leaderboard.

On a king-high board, Weinman rivered a straight to score the double knockout.

One table over, the 2022 WSOP Main Event champion Espen Jorstad was all-in for the last 5,500 from under the gun. Clement Cure then pushed all-in for 27,000 and Alex Kulev jammed in the cutoff, all other players folded.

Espen Jorstad: {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Clement Cure: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Alex Kulev: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Jorstad was eliminated while Cure doubled through Kulev. With the Irishman being left on a short stack as a result, those last few chips vanished shortly after as the next high-profile casualty on Day 2 ensued.
