Blinds: 400-800 Players Left: 36 Average 43,000

Nicholas Grippo has just taken the chip lead after a huge cooler saw a sea of chips flow his way. Grippo was three handed with Massoud Eskandari and another opponent on a completed board of [Jh][6s][5h][8s][9s]. We only caught the aftermath, but according to the table, Eskandari fired out 5,000, Grippo raised, and their other opponent moved all in. Eskandari folded what he said after was a jack high flush, and Grippo immediately called. His opponent had [As][5s] for an ace high flush, but it was second best to the [10s][7s] of Grippo, a straight flush! Here's how his stack, and a few others, look now.

Nicholas Grippo - 155,000
Harry Arutyunyan - 115,000
Daniel Strelitz - 95,000
Peter Hengaskul - 78,000
Jared Kawalsky - 38,000

The Triple Stack Event has drawn a whopping 525 entries so far, and registration is still open for 90 more minutes! This structure mirrors that of the WPT Main, but with shorter blind levels. The first eight will be 30 minutes long, then the levels will be 40 minutes until the final table, where they go up to 60 minutes.

There's a good chance that first place for this will be well over $30,000, all for just a $350 investment, so make sure you don't miss out on this special event!

Luis Silva Eliminated in 10th Place ($2,860)

Luis Silva got his final chips in the middle on a flop of [Qc][10c][5h]. He was quickly called by Mikey Roe, who had him beat with [Kh]Ks]. The board finished out [4d] and [10h], and the cowboys held to give Roe a big pot.

After that hand, he is neck and neck with Patrick Chan for the chip lead.

Mikey Roe - 280,000
Luis Silva - Out

Joseph Tartaro was just eliminated from the No-Limit Omaha 8-or-Better final table, taking home $1,260 for his efforts. Tony Merksick, who already has two Remington's in Omaha-8 events, is the chip leader four handed. Stay tuned for more updates from this event.

Mattox Doubles In Massive Cooler

Action started with Patrick Chan raising to 6,500 from early position. Jerid Zewin flat called, and Kenneth Mattox reraised to 16,000 next to act. Chan thought for quite some time before calling, and it was on Zewin now. He pulled back his original call, then slid his entire stack into the middle.

Mattox beat him into the pot, and Chan didn't take long to fold his hand. Zewin had [Ks][Kc], but he was one upped by the [Ad][Ac] of Mattox. The board came down [Jh][7s][4c][Qh][Qd], and Zewin was crippled down to 26,000, while Mattox is up to nearly 200,000 after that hand.

Patrick Chan Extends His Lead

There is already a big pot between Patrick Chan and Charles Lei on the turn of a board showing [8h][6c][5s][4d]. Chan is first to act, and he fires out 51,000. Lei makes the call, and the [Qc] completes the board. Chan thinks for about 30 seconds before announcing all in. Chan has just under 200,000 left, but the bet is effectively for the 125,000 Lei is left with.

Lei tanks for about three minutes before he folds, and Chan scoops the pot to get his stack up to 405,000.

It's time for our second $1,100 buy-in event, and this time, the game is 2-7 Triple Draw. Players will be starting with 15,000 in chips, and all tables will be 6-handed. Registration for this event will stay open until 9:30 PM tonight, so you have plenty of time to come on down and join us.

Good luck players!

Charles Lei Eliminated in 9th Place ($3,170)

Charles Lei raised to 9,000 preflop, and Kane Kalas reraised to 24,000. Action folded back around to Lei, who moved all in. Kalas called, and it was a classic race for a huge pot.

Lei: [10d][10h]
Kalas: [As][Ks]

Kalas shot out to the lead on the flop of [Kd][Jc][Js], and Lei wasn't able to hit a miracle ten, as the board finished [5h] and [Qd].

Kalas is up to over 300,000 after that hand, and we are down to our final eight players.

Nicholas Grippo Eliminated in 8th Place ($3,590)

Nicholas Grippo and Patrick Chan got in a raising war preflop that saw Grippo's final chips get in the middle. He held [Qh][Qs], but he was dominated by the [Kc][Kh] of Chan. The flop of [Qc][10h][8h] flipped the script, giving Grippo a dominating set of queens. The turn wasn't a king, but it was about as good a card as Chan could have asked for, the [Ah]. This gave him flush and straight draw outs, and one of those, the [Jc], came on the river.

After that roller coaster hand, Grippo is out in eighth place, while Chan increases his chip lead to 510,000.

Jerid Zewin Eliminated in 7th Place ($4,130)

Jerid Zewin was able to hold on to his crippled stack and ladder up a couple of spots before being knocked out by Joshua Tieman. Tieman raised the button, and Zewin moved all in for just a few chips more from the big blind. Tieman called with [10c][9c], and he had two live cards against the [Ks][6s] of Zewin.

The flop came down [9h][5d][3s], vaulting Tieman out into the lead. Zewin was looking for a king, six, or runner runner now, but the board completed with two aces instead, [Ah] and [Ad]. This gets us down to just six players. We will be posting fresh chip stacks shortly.
