Level 9 (Blinds 400/800/100) | Structure
Total Flight 1A Entries: 115
Flight 1A Players Remaining: 67
Shlomo Maman (North Miami, FL) would raise his hands in celebration, after spiking a set on the turn, to help win a massive pot. |
If there is anything that can delay the updated chip counts from being posted, it's a 130,000 pot at the 300/600/100 level. The action leading up to the point we arrived at the table is unknown, but three of the top ten stacks in the room got it all-in (including early chip leader Andrew Daire), vying for a pot that will likely be more than the start of Day 2 chip average.
Flop: K♣ 7♣ 3♣
Randy "T:" 10♥ 9♥
Shlomo Maman: Q♦ Q♣
Andrew Daire: A♣ K♥
Turn: Q♠
River: 10♠
Randy T had both players well covered, and was seemingly running a "heat check" when he shoved the flop. He happened to run into two pretty healthy hands, as Maman and Daire each had a flush draw, to go along with their pairs. Shlomo happened to spike a queen on the turn, to take the lead, and eventually win the pot. He would become the overwhelming chip leader with the win, taking a good chunk of Randy's stack, and sending Daire to register once again.
Maman slipped a little after winning that pot, but still returned to break with over 120,000 (150bb).
