Watson Hits the Nuts
Niveau 5
: 250/500, 0 ante
Three players put in 5,000 on the 
flop including Mike Watson who was in the big blind.
Watson acted first on the 
turn and he checked. So did his opponents.
They all checked the 
river, which wasn't Watson's plan. He was ready to fire a check-raise, but he never got a chance.
Watson tabled his 
for flopped two pairs, turned nut flush, and he didn't receive any extra penny on the last two streets.
Nonetheless, Watson still claimed a nice pot, improving to roughly 55,000.

Jan-Peter Jachtmann Eliminated
Niveau 5
: 250/500, 0 ante
Jan-Peter Jachtmann just couldn’t seem to catch a break today and he has just been eliminated
We arrived at the table as the dealer was sweeping up Jachtmann's losing 
with his opponent's 
in front of him.
The final board read 
, giving his opponent a flush and sending Jachtmann to the rail a little unhappy.

Daniel Negreanu Sits, Wins Two
Niveau 5
: 250/500, 0 ante
“What up Weinman?” Daniel Negreanu asked his tablemate as they both bought in and sat down at the same table.
“I had a twenty-four hour nap. I’m feeling good,” Weinman replied.
Negreanu is looking fresh and ready to go too. He won one small pot and then from the big blind checked down another one only to declare to the player on the button, “Two pair,” which was good for another small pot.
“Two scared pair again,” Negreanu chuckled.

Alberto Fonseca, who finished seventh in the $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed yesterday, is handling one of the top stacks in the tournament room.
Fonseca has a 25-tall pile of the orange chips worth 5,000 apiece. In all, there's around 160,000 in front of him, enough to put Costa Rica's flag atop the provisional leaderboard.

on the felt.
Shack-Harris was in the hijack, facing Ole Schemion on the button. Schemion paid the price to see the last community card.
The landed on the river and Shack-Harris reached out to his stack again, firing another 19,500.

Daniel Negreanu Doubles Up
Niveau 5
: 250/500, 0 ante
Jeff Madsen sat down to Daniel Negreanu's right, so we stuck around to see if anything would happen.
The gut feeling was right, although Madsen was only a spectator, sitting between the two main characters. A player in the lojack opened to 1,300 and Negreanu called, saying, "How much do you want?"
"Fours cards, anything can happen," Negreanu added.
The big blind joined the action and they went three ways to the 
flop. The original raiser asked what a pot is and bet out the max, making it 4,150. Negreanu had a strong response, "I raise pot," re-potting it to 16,600.
The big blind wasn't willing to let his hand go that fast, admitting, "I have a big hand."
Negreanu immediately replied with, "Shhh," indicating that a hand shouldn't be discussed in a multi-way pot.
The player in the big blind folded and the lojack asked Negreanu how much he had left behind. It was 20,700. In the meantime, the player in the big blind stood up, took his phone, and started shooting a video of Negreanu.
Negreanu liked that, posing like a Popeye the Sailor, showing his biceps.
The lojack called and, when the 
hit the turn, he moved all in to put Negreanu at risk. Negreanu called right away.
Lojack: 
Negreanu: 
Negreanu was ahead and he managed to avoid a king on the blank river.

Broadway Benyamine
Niveau 5
: 250/500, 0 ante
David Benyamine was in the big blind and led out in the turn of a board reading 
for 3,400.
The river card was the 
and a check from Benyamine saw a check-behind from his opponent who showed 
.
Benyamine though took the pot with his 
straight. The river card pairing the board killed some potential river action for the Frenchman.
