Blumstein Puts Lamb to the Test

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Scott Blumstein
Scott Blumstein

As the camera crew surrounded the table, Ben Lamb and Scott Blumstein were involved in a massive pot. There looked to be about 2,000,000 already in the middle, and the board was on the turn, reading {3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.

Both players checked and saw the {6-Spades} complete the board and put a full house on board, as well. Blumstein took his time and cut out a bet of 840,000. This sent Lamb into the tank for a few minutes, contemplating the huge decision. He eventually folded, and then the table started a conversation about what the two players had as the camera crew was shown their cards.

Lamb, oblivious that this was a thing, asked when his cards or his opponents would be shown. Lamb was told by the crew that the hands would be processed post-production, sparking an idea from Lamb.

"Wait, who around here knows so I can bribe them?" Lamb asked jokingly. "$500!"

Blumstein looked at Lamb and said, "I'll tell you for $600."

Mickey Craft's Main Event Ends with Seven-Deuce

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Mickey Craft
Mickey Craft

On the live stream shortly before the dinner break, Mickey Craft opened to 125,000 in early position, and Michael Ruane three-bet to 325,000 in middle position. Craft called, and they saw a {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop. Craft moved all in for about 1,500,000, and Ruane called.

Craft had {7-Clubs}{2-Spades} for a pair of sevens, but he was behind Ruane's {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

Craft was on his feet, and Ruane stared intensely at the board as the {J-Clubs} came on the turn, followed by the {8-Clubs} on the river.

Ruane celebrated with a clap and Craft looked over at his new fiance with a shrug.

In his exit interview with Kara Scott, Craft mentioned he had a great time in the Main Event. He said of the tournament, "This means absolutely nothing," and in regard to his fiance, "I have her for life."

After a romantic run in the Main Event and a romantic exit interview, Craft made his way to the payout desk to collect his $53,247.

Play Resumes After Dinner Break

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

143 players have returned from their dinner break and are getting ready for the second half of 20,000/40,000/5,000. After the last 60 minutes of that level, the blinds will increase to 25,000/50,000/5,000.

Player Interview: Colin Moffat

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Colin Moffatt
Colin Moffatt

Right before the Day 5 dinner break, PokerNews caught up with Canadian Colin Moffat, who started that day as one of the top ten stacks with 3,086,000 and has run it up to 5,580,000 in three levels of play.

When asked about how he feels about his play today, Moffat thought for a second, smiled, and said, "It's going really well. I can't complain."

Of course, it's hard to complain when you are sitting as one of the big stacks deep in the Main.

Moffatt didn't want to go into details on the hands for fear of giving away information. But he did say he felt like he was at a pretty good table, at least good for him. He's been able to apply pressure, and holding the table chip lead has certainly earned him some respect.

He did mention one memorable hand where he won a big pot without even seeing a flop when he five-bet jam. It's that image and his confidence to pull it off that are keeping him near the top of the chip counts.

Moffatt: I'm running really good, and things are working in my favor. I'm making some decent plays here and there, but I'm also getting lucky when I need to.

PokerNews: You had a run in the 2014 Main Event, placing 538th, and you knocked out Johnny Chan from 2013 Main Event on Day 3. It doesn't look like you're a full-time player, though, so can you tell us more?

Moffatt: Mostly, these days, I play just for fun, to be honest. I consider myself a recreational player. I mostly play home games with my friends, and once and a while I play online for fun.

PN: So why the Main Event?

Moffatt: I've played the Main Event for the last six years. I like playing it. It's a great tournament and a lot of fun, so I keep coming out.

Phillips Wins a Small Pot

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Soon after coming back from the break, a three-way {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop saw Max Silver bet 140,000 in the big blind, and initial raiser Reed Hensel folded in the cutoff. Samuel Phillips called on the button, and both players then checked the {A-Clubs} turn and the {10-Clubs} river.

Silver flashed {5-}{3-}, and Phillips won the pot with {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

Not All Canadians Hold Hands: Srinivasan Finds Huge Double Through Guay

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Shyam Srinivasan
Shyam Srinivasan

Action folded to David Guay in the cutoff, and he raised to 85,000. Shyam Srinivasan three-bet to 315,000 from the small blind and after thinking for about a minute, Guay four-bet to 2,085,000. Srinivasan didn't think twice and piled his stack worth 1,945,000 into the middle. Guay called.

Srinivasan was at risk but well ahead with {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} up against Guay's {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades}, and Srinivasan paired his king to extend his lead much further. The turn was the {6-Spades}, and Guay was drawing dead to the {5-Hearts} on the river.

Canadians may have a reputation for being nice and apologizing for anything and everything, but these two certainly came to battle.

James Salmon Falls to Jae Hwang's Aces

Niveau 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
James Salmon
James Salmon

A preflop raising war left James Salmon all in for just over 1.5 million and at risk against Jae Hwang, who held a covering stack.

Hwang: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}
Salmon: {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The {6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop was safe for Hwang. Salmon picked up some help on the {Q-Clubs} turn to keep him from drawing dead, but unfortunately for him, the river was the {9-Clubs}, and that kept Hwang in the lead. He earned the knockout and the pot, pushing him close to four million chips.
