Thayer Rasmussen Heads Home Oct 04, '09 Online professional Thayer “THAY3R” Rasmussen fought hard for three levels today, despite never really having a stack to work with. On his final hand, Rasmussen was all in holding AK against the pocket fours of his opponent. The jack high board failed to connect and Rasmussen was sent off into the London afternoon. (Or more likely his hotel room) Player Tags: Thayer Rasmussen View All Live Updates From This Event

Level Two Update Dec 13, '08 Level: 2 Blinds/Antes: 100-200 Scoreboard Players Left (Unofficial): 185 of 203 Average: 46,000 Notable Chip Counts Ryan Young - 150,000 Matt Gianetti - 97,000 Devin Porter - 95,000 Paul Wasicka - 62,500 Isaac Haxton - 58,500 Notable Eliminations Mike Sowers Big Hands: Thayer Rasmussen Gets Paid With Trips Thayer Rasmussen raised preflop with A-3 and flopped trips when the flop came 4-3-3. His opponent in the five seat called the flop bet and then raised when a queen hit the turn. Rasmussen called and the river doubled paired the board with another queen. Rasmussen checked called another bet and took down the pot when his opponent mucked. He now has just over 60,000 in chips Adam Katz Makes A-10 Work Twice during the level Adam "akat11" Katz was able to make A-10 pay off in a big way. On the first hand Katz made top two pair and was paid off. He stacked even more chips when his A-10 suited made the nut flush in another hand soon after. He now has 77,000 in chips. Barry Greenstein Busts Mike Sowers We asked Barry Greenstein where he got all of his chips and were informed that he took them off of young online pro Mike Sowers. Sowers had raised Greenstein a few times before and on the hand in question Greenstein picked up aces and raised on the button. Sowers played back at him with pocket kings from the small blind and was unable to catch up. Greenstein now has 86,000 in chips. Raise and Take it in the Poker Room Action in the poker room has been dictated by the first player to act in almost every single pot as of late. One showdown occured during our time on the floor and a player with pocket nines took down a pot that was checked around for the most part. Other than that, to the raiser go the spoils, most notably Paul Wasicka and Jason Mercier, who have been very active at their table. Featured Table Breakdown: Table 58 in the Fontana Bar 1. Unknown 2. David Williams 3. Shane "Anbessa" Pacheco 4. Theo Tran 5. John Roveto 6. Jeff Madsen 7. Ryan Young 8. Luke "IWEARGOGGLES" Staudenmaier 9. Yosh Nakano Left In The Deck: Table 54 has been filled with some early afternoon drama as it appears that seat 6 has developed a case of the stalls. After facing a modest bet from Gabe Kaplan, Abe Mosseri calls the clock on the young kid across the table, who has already shown off his habit of deep contemplation each and every hand. Jonathan Aguiar spoke up as well, saying, "I got here 20 minutes late and I only missed 3 hands."

Instead of nearly 600,000, he now sits with 266,000. Player Tags: Thayer Rasmussen New Chipleader Sep 14, '08 Looking around the room once again it looks like the new chipleader is Thayer "THAY3R" Rasmussen with just over 130,000 in chips.
