Adam Weinraub took a pretty horrible beat to get knocked out of the $10,000 heads-up tournament the other day here at Commerce Casino, and it looks like his luck is not going to change in the main event. He is seated at a table with Carlos Mortensen, Haralabos Voulgaris, Steve-Paul Ambrose, and Andreas Krause. Early in play Voulgaris was seated on his left when Weinraub was dealt pocket kings and Voulgaris picked up aces. Voulgaris took 8,000 off of Weinraub in the hand, but it was later discovered that he was in the wrong seat and then moved. But not before receiving the 8,000 gift courtesy of Weinraub.
Will Failla was all in holding A-K against Charles Marchese and his pocket tens.
