Many notable players joining the field hail from the Brasilia Room. They'd been receiving four hole cards at the beginning of their day at work. But the things didn't work out for many of the notables in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship, so Mike Watson, Sam Trickett, Dmitry Yurasov, Ismael Bojang, Justin Bonomo, and others have switched to the vanilla No-Limit Hold'em.
With a half of the Las Vegas summer poker season in the books, it's safe to say Nadar Kakhmazov has been one of the most successful players so far. Winning a big MSPT tournament in town, Kakhmazov topped it here at the Rio with a victory in the $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed, taking home his first bracelet.
With two major wins worth $1,000,000 combined, Kakhmazov's confidence must be reaching the pinnacle. It's been seen many times before; when players are on a heater, everything comes through. Their reads are sharp, as if they can see through opponents' cards.
But sometimes, even champions have to give up. What makes them different is that they know the right time to step back. Kakhmazov seems to follow the pattern of the greats, as he showed in the hand below.
Sitting in the cutoff, Kakhmazov bet 3,200 on the flop. Mike Sowers, however, woke up with a check-raise, making it 10,500. Kakhmazov thought about the situation and called.
The saw Sowers bet small, firing only 8,500.
Kakhmazov was agonized. He cut out calling chips and put them beside his remaining stack. He changed his position in the chair several times, then leaned back and forth. After about three minutes, he threw his cards into the muck.
"Good fold," Sowers said.
"Good fold?" asked Kakhmazov. "Jacks fold," he added.
Sowers didn't show anything, but Kakhmazov seemed to be happy after the chat they exchanged.

Anatoly Filatov checked the turn from the small blind against the big blind on a board. His opponent checked back with a bloated pot of about 18,000 in front of the two. On the river, Filatov checked again. His opponent put in 17,000, enough to put Filatov at risk for his last 14,100. Filatov considered for a couple of minutes but decided on a fold.

Kelly Minkin was in the blinds and check-called bets of 1,000 (flop) and then 2,200 (turn) from a player in early position as the board came . On the river, Minkin checked, her opponent bet 2,125, and Minkin called once again. She could not beat the shown down by her opponent, though, and the pot went the other way.
