Level 3 Update -- Shaun Deeb Going BackwardsOct 02, '09 Blinds: 100-200 Players Remaining: 282 out of 305 (Unofficial) Average Chip Count: 32,000 Notable Eliminations: Asa Smith Hand of the Level: World Champion Moving On Up Thanks to a nice river value bet of 7,700 on a board reading Q The Team PokerStars Pro is now up to a very healthy 70,000 in chips. Left In The Deck:
The 8-Game tournament is getting closer and closer to the final table. Notables that remain include Huck Seed, David Williams, Greg Raymer and Joe Hachem. One person not in attendance and hasn’t been all day is Jean-Robert Bellande. According to his Twitter account, Bellande accidentally slept through his day 2 restart time and blinded out. “I just pulled a Vinny Vihn and slept through day 2 of my tourney. @dwpoker was calling my american tel to wake me. Using London tel :(” “I was short stacked w 4.5k so I just ran out of chips.Feel like I cheated Huck, Jeff L, and Chad Brown on our % swaps. So sorry guys. 0 chps”
Shaun Deeb is not having a great start to this tournament. When he first arrived, Deeb had apparently misplaced his tournament receipt and was therefore unable to prove he was playing today. After that ordeal was sorted out, Deeb sat down at the table and immediately began to get pummeled. His stack has taken quite the beating and he is now down to his last 8,500 in chips. Luckily for Deeb, he has picked up the pace online in the past few days to vault himself up to the no. 2 position in Card Player’s Online Player of the Year race.

Freddy Deeb raises to 2,500 from the button, John Juanda reraises to 10,000 from the small blind and Deeb calls. Both players draw one card each. First to act, Juanda tanks for several minutes on his own action before betting 65,000 (enough to put Deeb all in). Deeb counts his stack (44,650) and makes the dealer give Juanda back his change. This would be Deeb’s first attempt to try and steal information from his opponent. Deeb would tank for another few minutes, asking Juanda a series of questions as he desperately looks for a sign of weakness. He doesn’t get what he’s looking for and decides to fold. Juanda re-checks his cards as Deeb tells him to show the bluff. Just as Juanda is about to turn over his cards, Bobby Bellande chimes in and tells him not to. Juanda looks at his friend and leaves the decision up to him. “Do you want me to show or not?” He asks Bellande. Bellande replies with a straight face, “Don’t show your cards, because if it is a bluff I’m gonna want to call you down all night.” Juanda listens to his friend and opts not to show the hand as the whole table gets a laugh, including Bellande who we’re pretty sure was serious. Huck Seed Eliminated It was a three-way all in pot before the draw between Huck Seed (4,000), Bryan Colin (29,000) and Layne Flack (had them both covered). Seed and Colin both drew one card each as Flack stood pat. Flack turned over a 9-8-7-4-2 low while Colin drew to an 8-6-4-3-2 low.

Rheem tanks for a few minutes before Hennigan calls the clock on him. Rheem eventually folds as Hansen takes his turn in the tank. Hennigan proceeds to call the clock on him as well, perhaps prompting a call. Hansen calls with a 10-9 low and Hennigan throws his ace-high away. Johnny World is eliminated from the tournament.

The action was checked all around and Fitoussi tabled 9-7-6-3-2 and Bellande mucked. Fitoussi took the pot and was around 33,000 total while Bellande was down to around 25,000 total.

Wahlbeck has already made two final tables in $10,000 buy-in events. He finished 3rd in the 10k Stud event and won the 10k mixed games event. It will be interesting to see if Wahlbeck can keep his hot streak going.

Juanda mucked and was down to 170,000 while Buchanan was at 56,000. Those chips would not last Buchanan long, however, as he would go bust later in the level. Mueller Flexes The Muscle The player in seat 4 raised to 3,800 and Jean-Robert Bellande made the call from the button. Greg Mueller was next to act in the small blind and he counted out some chips. He finally raised to 14,500 and everyone mucked. Mueller took the pot and he was around 80,000 while Bellande was at 124,000.

Draw: Black stands pat, Smith stands pat Both players were happy with their holdings and Black showed an 8-7 low. Black’s happiness turned to sorrow, however, as Smith turned 8-6-5-3-2 for a better low and Black made his exit.

It was the 4 Zolotow With An Early Pot, Busts Out Later With 5,600 in the pot and the draw already completed, Steve Zolotow fired 3,000 into the pot and the action was on Chris Bjorin. He thought for a few moments but decided to muck his hand and surrender the pot. Zolotow raked it in and was around 32,000 in chips. Those chips did not last long, however, as he busted out shortly after.
Before the draw, Mizzi was all in for his last 10,400 and the action was on Binger. He tanked for a long time and then finally decided to throw in the call. Draw: Mizzi draws 1 card, Binger draws 1 card When Mizzi drew his card, Binger had a look of frustration on his face as he drew his card. Before even looking at his card, Binger said to Mizzi, “You win.” Mizzi turned over a K-10-8-6-2 and Binger mucked. He was down to 51,000 while Mizzi doubled up to 22,000.
Prior to the draw, Tim Phan raised and Jean-Robert Bellande made the call from the button. Greg Mueller followed suit from the small blind and the onus was now on the players to draw. Draw: Mueller stands pat, Phan draws 2 cards, Bellande draws 1 card Everyone checked and Mueller turned over a Jack-low, good enough to take the pot as his opponents mucked.

Dan Harmetz bets after the draw as Filippi calls and the fourth opponent folds. Harmetz turns over a 10-8-7-6-5 low and rakes the pot, eliminating Phil Hellmuth in the process
Freddy Deeb raises to 2,500 from the button, John Juanda reraises to 10,000 from the small blind and Deeb calls. Both players draw one card each. First to act, Juanda tanks for several minutes on his own action before betting 65,000 (enough to put Deeb all in). Deeb counts his stack (44,650) and makes the dealer give Juanda back his change. This would be Deeb’s first attempt to try and steal information from his opponent. Deeb would tank for another few minutes, asking Juanda a series of questions as he desperately looks for a sign of weakness. He doesn’t get what he’s looking for and decides to fold. Juanda re-checks his cards as Deeb tells him to show the bluff. Just as Juanda is about to turn over his cards, Bobby Bellande chimes in and tells him not to. Juanda looks at his friend and leaves the decision up to him. “Do you want me to show or not?” He asks Bellande. Bellande replies with a straight face, “Don’t show your cards, because if it is a bluff I’m gonna want to call you down all night.” Juanda listens to his friend and opts not to show the hand as the whole table gets a laugh, including Bellande who we’re pretty sure was serious. Huck Seed Eliminated It was a three-way all in pot before the draw between Huck Seed (4,000), Bryan Colin (29,000) and Layne Flack (had them both covered). Seed and Colin both drew one card each as Flack stood pat. Flack turned over a 9-8-7-4-2 low while Colin drew to an 8-6-4-3-2 low. Seed thre his cards into the muck as Colin raked the pot, eliminating Huck Seed and chopping Flack’s stack down to 35,000. .

John Hennigan raises to 1,200 before the flop and Chino Rheem calls behind him. Gus Hansen reraises to 5,400 from the small blind and both players call. Hansen stands pat while both Hennigan and Rheem draw one card each. First to act, Hansen checks and Hennigan immediately moves all in for 17,775. Rheem tanks for a few minutes before Hennigan calls the clock on him. Rheem eventually folds as Hansen takes his turn in the tank. Hennigan proceeds to call the clock on him as well, perhaps prompting a call. Hansen calls with a 10-9 low and Hennigan throws his ace-high away. Johnny World is eliminated from the tournament. Mickey Appleman Doubles Through Bobby Bellande Barry Greenstein opens the pot for 1,500 from early position and Bobby Bellande calls from middle position. Mickey Appleman moves all in for 9,225 from the button, Greenstein folds and Bellande calls. Appleman stands pat while Bellande draws one card.

Huck Seed – 32,000 Average Chip Count: 30,000 Notable Eliminations: None Big Hands:
Chino Rheem raised to 425 before the first draw and the player in seat 6 raised to 1,500 total. “I’m gonna give it back to you,” Rheem said as he threw in the call and it was time to draw.

Rheem showed down 8-6-5-4-2 and his opponent mucked. Rheem took in the pot and was at almost 40,000 total. Karas And Nguyen Get Involved, Neither Takes The Pot Archie Karas raised to 400 from the big blind before the draw and Scotty Nguyen made the call from the cutoff.

He fired 600 into the pot and both of his opponents mucked. Williams raked in the pot and he was around 32,000 total.

The action was checked all around and Fitoussi tabled 9-7-6-3-2 and Bellande mucked. Fitoussi took the pot and was around 33,000 total while Bellande was down to around 25,000 total. Left In The Deck: Another 10k Event, Another Cash? Ville Wahlbeck has taken his seat at a table holding Johnny Chan and Erick Lindgren. Wahlbeck has already made two final tables in $10,000 buy-in events. He finished 3rd in the 10k Stud event and won the 10k mixed games event. It will be interesting to see if Wahlbeck can keep his hot streak going.
