Event 53 - Final Table - Easy And The Fifth 1 year ago

Jean Robert Bellande has bled off some of the chips he won early on. John Kranyak has assumed the position of new table chip leader while Mike Kachan has somehow managed to work his way down to $125,000 in just over an hour.

Danny Wonged Early On

Jean Robert Bellande is sitting next to Danny Wong which means the two will probably get to play a lot of pots with each other. Wong won a small pot during their first confrontation when Bellande folded on the river, but it wasn't long before they met again.

The board was 9-6-3-8-7 and Bellande fired. Wong made the call and Bellande turned over Q-T for the nuts. Bellande is splashing around and already incresed his chip stack by 50%.

Graham Chips Up

John Kranyak and Matt Graham played a pot heads up and saw a flop of Ad Ks 8s. Kranyak led, Graham called, and they saw a 4s on the turn. Kranyak fired again and Graham called. The Kh appeared on the river and it was the same action. Graham turned up A-Q and took down the pot probably due to a bigger kicker.

Kranyak Attack!

Kranyak just recovered from the loss he sustained against Graham in a big way. After capping the flop in a three way pot, Kranyak fired on a Ks Jh 8d board. Joe De Niro called and Mike Kachan raised it up. Kranyak three bet without skipping a beat and both players called. The turn was the 5h and Kranyak, showing no signs of slowing down, bet again.

Both players called and the Js appeared on the river. Kranyak bet again and De Niro finally gave up. Kachan called and Kranyak showed pocket eights for a boat. Kachan showed pocket aces and mucked.

Event 53 - High Noon! 1 year ago

The players in the shootout have convened at the final table. Spencer Lawrence, the three seat, failed to arrive on time but finally made it in a few minutes late. It appears that the players are each starting with $300,000 and a $4,000/$8,000 limit. The over under on how long the table will last has been estimated to be between seven and eight hours. Looks like it could be a long one folks!
