Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): James Calderaro Eliminated On The Bubble, Field Now ITM

2018 Isle Open | Event #11
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD)
Level 17 (Blinds 3,000/6,000/6,000)
Event #11 Entries: 267
Event #11 Players Remaining: 34

James Calderaro's (Sarasota, FL) elimination moments ago, means that the remaining players in the Event #11 field are all in the money.

The hand-for-hand play was very dramatic, with Nick Palma all-in three times, surviving each time.  Palma twice spiked miracle rivers to steal the pot away and stay alive, along with having one of his all-ins called by two players (with action checking down to the river, and Palma's pocket eights holding against Ax Qx and AxQx).

Ian O'Hara was then all-in against Loni Harwood, with his A♣ K♣ coming from behind against Harwood's A♠ 10♣ (on the 6♥ 6♠ 8♥ 10♠ K♦ runout).

On the eleventh hand, James Calderaro would three-bet shove for 127,000 (over an open of 17,000), which was followed by an over 800,000 four-bet shove from Chad Eveslage.  The original raiser released his hand, and James would be at risk:

Calderaro: A♥ Q♣

Eveslage: K♠ K♥

Runout: J♣ 7♥ 3♣ 4♣ J♠

Calderaro would become the final player to walk away empty handed, as the remaining (34) players in the field will all earn a piece of the $360,450 prize pool.

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): After Christopher Lawson's Elimination, Field Is One Away From Hand-For-Hand

Christopher Lawson was the most recent elimination from the field, with (36) players now remaining.  After the next player busts out, the field will begin hand-for-hand play, with each table playing one hand simultaneously.  That will last until one player is eliminated, at which point the Event #11 field will be in the money.  Live blogged coverage will concentrate on hand-for-hand, next updating once the money bubble has burst.

Event #11 Players Remaining: 41

Down to less than 100,000 about an hour before dinner, Victor Figueroa (Miami, FL) is now close to 500,000, after eliminating Joshua Kay short of the money.

Just a few hands back from break, Victor Figueroa opened with a raise to 11,000, with action folding around to Joshua Kay (from the small blind).  Kay three-bet to 45,000, with Victor making the call, as the two saw a flop of K♠ Q♠ 9♥.  Kay led for 40,500, and after about a minute in the tank, Victor announced he was all-in (enough to cover Kay).  Joshua peered back at his cards, and made the call:

Kay: Q♥ Q♦ (middle set)
Figueroa: 8♠ 9♠ (pair and flush draw)

Turn: 6♥ 
River: 2♠

Victor Figueroa - 470,000
Joshua Kay - Eliminated

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): New Names Climbing The Leaderboard, Including "Heinz the Hammer"

2018 Isle Open | Event #11
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD)
Level 14 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/3,000)
Event #11 Entries: 267
Event #11 Players Remaining: 63

Heinz Schlüter (Germany) was given the nickname "Heinz The Hammer" by his table mates, after running hot over the course of the last two levels.

The landscape of the leaderboard has been very fluid, with a handful of new names finding their way to the top twenty.  After winning a 300,000+ pot just moments ago, Heinz Schluter (Germany) assumed the top spot, now sitting with 580,000.  Schluter has already seen some success this series, taking second place money in a heads-up chop of Event #10 ($2,500 No Limit Hold'em 8-Max).  Heinz has recorded five results in the states since September, including a 6th place finish in the $1,100 No Limit Hold'em MSPT Michigan Main Event (Battle Creek), which saw a return of over $43,000.

Heinz Schlüter - 580,000 (193bb)

Chino Rheem - 445,000 (148bb)

Joshua Kay - 350,000 (116bb)

Matt Smith - 320,000 (106bb)

Fred White - 300,000 (100bb)

Skip McDonough - 300,000 (100bb)

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): Mark Dube Doubles Through Tom Gity

2018 Isle Open | Event #11
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD)
Level 14 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/3,000)
Event #11 Entries: 267
Event #11 Players Remaining: 69

Mark Dube (Newburyport, CT) has some nice results since relocating to Florida last year, but is still looking for his breakout score at the Isle Poker Room.

At Table 1, Chino Rheem opened the action from under-the-gun, with a raise to 6,500.  Mark Dube flatted next to act, with action folding to Tom Gity.  Gity three-bet to 32,500, clearing out the players behind, as well as Rheem.  Dube counted out his stack, took a look over at Tom's stack, and went all-in for 87,500.  The shove was for close to 80% of Tom's stack, but he took little time before making the call:

Dube: A♦ A♥
Gity: 7♦ 7♠

Runout: Q♥ 5♠ Q♠ Q♣ 10♦

Tom was left tapping the table when the cards were turned over, showing a little sign of respect for the line Mark took with the pocket aces.  Gity was drawing dead on the turn, and would be left with just over ten big blinds.

Mark Dube - 190,000 (63bb)
Tom Gity - 45,000 (15bb)

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): Short Stacks Collide, Sean Shah Eliminated By Dylan Drazen

2018 Isle Open | Event #11
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD)
Level 13 (Blinds 1,500/2,500/2,500)
Event #11 Entries: 267
Event #11 Players Remaining: 79

Dylan Drazen (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) just doesn't have the confidence in this poker room that he does elsewhere, but after his most recent hand, those feelings may be on their way to changing.

Dylan Drazen (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) feels a little bit "cursed" here at the Isle Poker Room, which is why he was shocked that he even bagged chips for Day 2 (51,300).  Just a few moments ago, Drazen shoved from the cutoff (30,000), with players folding to Sean Shah (who was in the big blind).  Shah had entered the field shortly before the last break, and was sitting with less than Drazen's all-in amount.  After thinking things through, Shah made the call, and would be at risk:

Drazen: K♠ Q♥
Shah: A♥ 10♣

Runout: 10♦ 9♦ 4♠ Q♣ K♣

Drazen may be on the path towards believing his luck is turning around here, as he comes from behind to score the win.  He now has half of the current chip average, but is sitting on over (20) bigs.

Dylan Drazen - 65,000 (26bb)
Sean Shah - Eliminated

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): Gimbel's Unlikely Climb Continues, As He Knocks Out Harry O'Brien

Level 12 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/2,000)
Event #11 Entries: 247
Event #11 Players Remaining: 106

The stack of Harrison Gimbel (Jupiter, FL), after starting Day 2 with just 5,600 (less than six big blinds).

Table 11 was playing it's last hand before breaking, with Harry O'Brien open shoving for just over 40,000.  Harrison Gimbel was next to act, and after assessing the stack sizes around him, announced a call.  The player behind all folded, and the cards found their backs:

O'Brien: J♥ J♣
Gimbel: K♦ K♠

Runout: Q♦ 10♠ 6♦ J♠ A♣

The dramatic runout just about summed up Gimbel's day so far (watching O'Brien steal the lead with a turned set, only to make a straight on the river), and left the others at the table happy to find a new seat...away from Harrison.

Harrison Gimbel - 170,000 (85bb)
Harry O'Brien - Eliminated (but eligible to re-enter)

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): Gimbel Won't Just "Give Up" 5,200 Stack To Start Day, Runs It Up To 100,000

2018 Isle Open | Event #11

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/1,600)
Event #11 Entries: 241
Event #11 Players Remaining: 112

Whether it's live or online, Harrison Gimbel (Jupiter, FL) is widely considered one of the top tournament players in the world.

Harrison Gimbel (Jupiter, FL) bagged 5,200 at the end of yesterday's Day 1C, and when he approached the table this morning, a clear plan was in mind.  "When he first sat down, I asked him if he was going to just re-enter," Joshua Hillock said aloud, referencing Harrison's option to surrender the chips (and re-enter with a fresh 40,000 stack).

Gimbel ended up turning that 5,600 into 42,600 over the first hour of the day, and was able to double up moments ago.  When we approached Table 9, Harry O'Brien had an 11,000 bet in front of him, with both Harrison Gimbel (42,600) and Oscar Valdez (63,000) all-in.  O'Brien was in the tank, and eventually got the clock called on him (by Valdes), deciding to release his hand before his time ran out.

Gimbel: A♥ A♦
Valdes: K♣ K♦

Runout: 6♥ 5♥ 2♠ 2♦ Q♦

Harrison was in the perfect spot to eclipse the 100,000 mark, and would do just that, after his aces held up through the runout.

Harrison Gimbel - 105,000 (65bb)
Oscar Valdes - 21,000 (13bb)

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): After A Weekend To Celebrate WPT Runner-Up At BestBet, Jake Schwartz Joins The Action

2018 Isle Open | Event #11
$1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD)
Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/1,600)
Event #11 Entries: 235
Event #11 Players Remaining: 113

Jake Schwartz (New York, NY) knew that he could enter Day 2 with close to (35) big blinds, so it was an easy decision to pass on the starting days, and take the weekend off from tournament poker.

The open registration through Level 12 gave players the option to pass on the weekend's starting flight, and just show up this afternoon (with play resuming in Level 10).  Jake Schwartz (New York, NY) would have normally played in one of the starting days, but decided to take the weekend off to celebrate, having just recorded his second largest tournament cash.

The WPT BestBet Bounty Scramble ($5,000 No Limit Hold'em) always falls on the schedule the week prior to this Isle Open Main Event, with many of the notables we know here at the Isle, taking a trip to Jacksonville to play in the tournament.  Schwartz is no stranger to the WPT, having made three final tables prior to this year's BestBet event.  He would reach his fourth last week, and while he fell short of the ultimate goal, Jake did earn $228,590 for his second place finish.  As mentioned earlier, the result is the second largest of Jake's career, behind his fourth place finish in the 2015 WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic ($412,187).

Jake Schwartz - 40,000 (25bb)

Isle Open Event #11 (Day 2): Nick Palma Looking For The "Double", Coming Off Foxwoods World Poker Finals Win

Level 10 (Blinds 600/1,200/1,200)

Event #11 Players Remaining: 108

Nick Palma (New Rochelle, NY) is a well known tournament professional, who travels the country playing events.  He's just off a win at his "home" poker room (Foxwoods), and is now here at the Isle, looking to add to his $1,419,000 in career earnings. 

Nick Palma (New Rochelle, NY) was in Orlando just a few days ago, celebrating his Foxwoods World Poker Finals Championship Event ($2,500 No Limit Hold'em) win, with a few well needed days off ($80,000 after a heads-up chop).  While the intention was to enjoy the sunny Florida weather, and take time away from the felt, the structure and appeal of the Isle Open Main Event was too good for "Nicky P" to pass up.  

Nick played yesterday's Day 1C, and ended up bagging 33,000 at the conclusion of Level 9.  He's returning to a smaller stack than those who bought in this afternoon, but it's nothing that Palma can't overcome, as he thrives on being in the underdog role...and likes when those in the community "doubt him."

Nick Palma - 33,000 (27bb)

Monday, October 29th: Day 2 Of The Isle Open Main Evenr Headlines Schedule, Raminder Singh Wins Lucky Number Thirteen!!

ICYMI: Yesterday was the final starting day of the Isle Open Main Event ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em $300,000 GTD), and while things started off slowly, the field would grow to (75) entries (one short of Friday's opening number).  After nine full levels were played, there were (40) players remaining, with Zyad Qasem bagging the chip lead (221,100).  Qasem was the only player from Day 1C to bag over 200,000, with the following players rounding out the top five from the final starting day: Scott Baumstein (172,600), Christopher Gilkey (147,600), Peter Fellows (132,700), and Oron Unger (124,800).

After three opening days, Event #11 of the 2018 Isle Open heads to Day 2 with (207) entries, of which (89) have bagged chips.  The current prize pool sits at $279,450, but will change the moment action resumes today, as registration is still open (and will stay open through Level 12).

Last night was Event #12 of the Isle Open ($130 No Limit Hold'em "Turbo Bounty" $5,000 GTD), and while it may have been overshadowed by the Main Event, there was a notable storyline that came from the tournament.  Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL) became the first player to win two trophies during this series, shipping back-to-back $130 NLH "Turbo Bounty" events.  Thirteen may widely be known as an unlucky number, but not for Raminder, as that was his 13th major tournament win here at the Isle Poker Room.  Official details from last nights event will be posted during today's Main Event coverage.  

Tournaments: The day's tournament schedule kicks off (at 10:00am) with a $75 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #13 of the Isle Open ($300 No Limit Hold'em Black Chip Bounty $10,000 GTD).  The satellite is structured with 10,000 unit starting stacks, (15) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.

At 12:00pm, Day 2 of the Isle Open Main Event will resume, with at least (89) players returning for action.  We say "at least," because registration is still open through Level 12 (three levels into the day), so there will be players buying in before the day starts, and over the course of day's early stages.  Players buying in will receive 40,000 unit starting stacks, with the first three levels of the day lasting (50) minutes.  Once registration is closed (Level 12), the play will resume with levels lasting (60) minutes, and will stay that way through the tournaments conclusion.

The final tournament of the day gets underway at 3:00pm, and is Event #13 of the Isle Open ($300 No Limit Hold'em "Black Chip Bounty" $10,000 GTD).  The tournament is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (25) minutes, and registration open through Level 8.

Promotions: From (9:00am-10:00am), the high hand will award $150 every (30) minutes.  The high hands will then transition from 10:00am-12:00am, with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes.  During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands.  

It should also be noted that players are able to win the high hand using only one card in their hand.  The payouts for those that use one card are different than the standard numbers listed above, and can be found (full listing of one-card payouts on flyers in the poker room).

From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
