Hour 1 Update: Hoyt Corkins First to Advance Jun 13, '09 Hour 1 Update Players Remaining: 250 out of 256 Completed Matches (Winner in Bold): 1. Jason Mercier vs. David Daneshgarr 2. Hoyt Corkins vs. Vadim Trincher 3. Vivek Rajkumar vs. Evelyn Ng Notable Eliminations: Vadmim Tricher, David Chiu, David Daneshgar, Vivek Rajkumar, Erick Lindgren Big Hands: Ng’s Aces Take Big Chunk out of Rajkumar Vivek Rajkumar raises to 600 on the button and Evelyn Ng re-raises to 1700. After some thought, Rajkumar four-bets to 5200 and Ng made the call. They see a flop of 1054 and Ng leads out for 4500. Rajkumar made the call and the K fell on the turn. Ng checked and Rajkumar fired out 10,500 and Ng instantly check-raised all in. Rajkumar made the call and showed 54, which was ahead of Ng’s AA. That is, until the A fell on the river and Rajkumar was left with 7000. Tom Dwan Takes Chunk out of Nam Le On a board of 495J, Nam Le checked and called 2800 from Tom “Durrrr” Dwan and the Q fell on the river. Le checked again and this time Dwan bet 7600. After a couple minutes of deliberation, Le decided to make the call. Dwan turned over the J5, good for two pair, and Le mucked his hand. Hellmuth Explodes After Ace on the River After a preflop raise, Phil Hellmuth and his opponent see a flop of K76. After his opponent checked, Hellmuth bet 3000, and his opponent called. The turn was the 9 and the river was the A. Both streets were checked down and Hellmuth’s opponent turns up A 6. Hellmuth jumped out of his seat, momentarily halting his massage as he began one of his trademarked rants. “You hit your miracle on the river and you checked it. Well played,” said Hellmuth. His opponent didn’t say a word. Left in the Deck: Hoyt Corkins First Winner Just 17 minutes into the day, Vadmin Trincher lost to Hoyt Corkins, making him the first player to be eliminated in the tournament.

Robl was committed and quickly called with the A10 and Giang was happy to see he had his opponent dominated with the AK. The board ran out Q643K and Giang doubled up to a modest stack of 146,000. Chris Moneymaker Avoids Disaster Chris Moneymaker raised pre-floped and Humberto Brenes just called. The flop brought the A and both played the hand cautiously until Moneymaker made a 25,000 bet on the river that Brenes quickly called. Moneymaker turned over pocket queens and Brenes exposed pocket kings to take the small pot. Moneymaker exclaimed, “I got lucky with that flop,” and Brenes said, “Yes you did.” Brian Townsend Wins a Huge Pot On a board of A87103 with 330,000 already sitting in the pot, Brian Townsend bet 300,000, leaving just 45,000 in his stack.

Veldhuis exposed 88 for quads to eliminate DeMichele. Brian Rast Gets Lucky to Double Up On a flop of 75A, Brian Rast got it all in against the A5 of Bruno Fitoussi. The turn brought the Q, giving the online cash game player extra outs. The Q fell on the river and Rast rivered a better two pair to double up to about 650,000. David “Devil Fish” Ulliott is Eliminated On the very next hand after Brian Rast’s huge double up, the short stack David Ulliott raised pre-flop to 25,000 with pocket kings. Rast min-raised to 50,000 and Ulliott went all-in instantly. Rast called and exposed 77 and Ulliott tabled pocket kings. The flop was a disaster for Ulliott, as it came A67. Ulliott failed to connect with a higher set and was sent home. Table 60 is running hot At the same table and a hand after Rasts double up and Ulliot’s elimination, Greg Raymer called the all-in of Ville Wahlbeck. Raymer showed AJ and Wahlbeck exposed pocket kings. Kings were no good once again as Raymer flopped an ace and built his stack to around 300,000. Left in the Deck: Mike Matusow is entered in the Omaha Hi-Low Split-8 or Better tournament that is running simultaneously and has ran over to the other table to see a hand.

Sass led into Hellmuth for 19,400 and Hellmuth called. The turn was the K and Sass checked. Hellmuth fired in a bet of 35,000 and Sass called. The river was the Q and Hellmuth moved all in for 183,000, which had Sass covered by about 37,000. Sass called showing K9 and Hellmuth mucked his hand. After the hand, Hellmuth pulled one of our reporters aside to admit that he held A-7 for a busted open-ended straight draw. “I’d get penalized for saying this at the table, but I just wanted to let it be known that the most horrible players in the world usually beat me,” said Hellmuth. The hand drew further attention when it was revealed that the dealer had miscounted the all-in stacks, giving Sass some more of Hellmuth chips. Hellmuth, clearly upset, responded with, “What are you trying to give it all to him?” Not quite, as Hellmuth still has about 37,000 in chips. Russell Rosenblum Doubles Up Russell Rosenblum found himself and his stack of about 100,000 all in preflop holding pocket kings against the pocket jacks of Philippe Rouas.

Chris Moore Eliminated in 2nd Place ($190,000) Feb 20, '09 After taking the lead, Vivek Rajkumar finally closed Chris Moore on a nine-high board with 10-9 in the hole. Moore held a pair of sevens and needed to make trips or catch a jack on the river to pair his kicker. The river bricked out and Moore was eliminated in 2nd place, earning $190,000. Player Tags: Chris Moore, Vivek Rajkumar Vivek Rajkumar Wins First Match, Draws Even Feb 20, '09 The first match between Chris Moore and Vivek Rajkumar is in the books and because we still don't have a champion, that means Chris Moore is undefeated no.... more! Both players had the lead at various points in the match, but it was clear that Rajkumar held it for much longer, having Moore on the ropes quite a few times before finally finishing him off. On the final hand, Moore was all in with a pair and an open-ended straight draw while Rajkumar held a club flush draw with a gutshot to a higher straight. The river gave him his flush and suddenly things were all square. Stay tuned for the final match of the tournament. Player Tags: Chris Moore, Vivek Rajkumar Chris Moore Defeats James Mackey Feb 20, '09 Chris Moore grinded down James Mackey from the start and quickly built a large and what proved to be insurmountable lead. On the final hand, Mackey got his last few thousand in with Q-8 only to see Moore show a dominating A-8. The board helped neither player and Moore moved on to the finals to face whoever it is that advances from the loser's bracket. Mackey will still have a shot to be that player, but he's going to have to wait a few rounds to get his revenge. Player Tags: James Mackey, Chris Moore Chris Moore Defeats David Oppenheim Feb 20, '09 Chris Moore Defeats David Oppenheim David Oppenheim made a big bet on the river of a four flush board and Chris Moore made the call with pocket queens, showing a queen high flush. Oppenheim mucked and Moore was left with a huge chip lead. On the final hand, Oppenheim was all in for 2,000 holding A-K, but Moore's 9-8 outdrew him to send him to the loser's bracket. Moore will now face off against James Mackey as the two remaining unbeatens. Player Tags: David Oppenheim, Chris Moore View All Live Updates From This Event
