Jake Bazeley opened to 55,000 from under the gun, Jessy Alech called from the cutoff, Jean “Prince ” Gaspard called in the small blind, and Shaun Deeb mucked his big.

“Well, why don’t you just tell what you had.” Bazeley joked. “Jeez!”

The flop came Th8c7h and Gaspard moved all in for 149,000 to get a call from Bazeley and fold from Alech.

Gaspard: JsJc
Bazeley: 9c9s

Gaspard’s over pair was ahead and neither wanted to hit a set to fill the other’s straight. The 4c turn changed nothing and the 8s river sent the double up to Gaspard.

Jean Gaspard – 511,000 (21 bb)
Jake Bazeley – 1,520,000 (63 bb)

Orme: AdJh
Cyr: AsKc

Orme needed a lot of help but bricked out as the board ran AhTc5s9c3s to send him out in 17th place.

Denis Cyr – 1,250,000 (52 bb)

Shaun Deeb opened to 55,000 from under the gun and Tom Marchese three-bet from middle position. Joe McKeehen moved all in from the small blind for 261,000, Deeb released, and Marchese called to put the champ at risk.

McKeehen: AdKh
Marchese: AcJd

McKeehen was dominant pre-flop then hit the KcQsQh flop to leave Marchese looking for a Broadway gutshot. The 7s turn was safe for McKeehen and he had his double up on the 6c river.

Joe McKeehen – 620,000 (26 bb)
Tom Marchese – 1,075,000 (45 bb)

The levels are up in the Championship with few major pots over the remainder of Level 23.

With the three biggest stacks sitting at Table 72, it’s not a surprise the chip lead might change hands early. Shaun Deeb took a big, early pot from Jake Bazeley without  a showdown and he grabbed the lead with his elimination of David Peters.

David Peters

Matas Cimbolas opened the action and David Peters three-bet shoved from the button for 245,000. Shaun Deeb called in the big blind and Cimbolas mucked.

Deeb: JdJh
Peters: KhQc

Peters was racing to stay in the Championship but the dealer kept it low on the 8h7c5hTc6c board to send him out in 18th place.

It wasn’t a bad 24 hours for Peters, he walked away with $20,820 from the Championship after picking up more than $100,000 last night for a win in the $5K one-day event.

Shaun Deeb – 2,500,000 (125 bb)

$300 H.O.R.S.E. (Re-Entry)
Level 1: 100/200 Limites | Structure

HORSE tournaments don’t come around very often, but when they do, they draw a talented group of players. This event drew 59 tough mix-game specialists last year and it was conquered by former Seminole Hard Rock Poker Player of the Year David Prociak.

The tournament will switch up games between Limit Hold’em, Limit Omaha/8, Razz, Seven-Card Stud, and Seven-Card Stud/8 with the game changing every eight hands.

Players will sit down to 10,000 starting stack and the tournament will run 30-minute levels. Late registration is available until the start of Level 8 at 4pm with a 40-minute dinner break schedule after Level 10. This is a one-day trophy event and will continue until we have our RRPO Event 15 champion.

Cards fly at noon and we expect a great group of players for the mix game.

  • Players begin with 10,000 in chips and 30-minute levels
  • Late registration/re-entry available until start of Level 8
  • This is a one-day tournament and plays until completion

Matas Cimbolas

The Championship began with 585 entries and they have been whittled down to the last 18 players. They have competed for most of 23 levels and we will know the identity of the final table before the day is through. The last six players will gather tomorrow to play for the title in front of the Poker Night in America cameras.

WPT Champions Club member Matas Cimbolas returns with a big chip lead but there is talent spread throughout last two tables including Seminole Hard Rock team Sheddy Siddiqui and Darryll Fish, 2015 WSOP Main Event champ Joe McKeehen, high-stakes specialists Shaun Deeb and David Peters, WSOP bracelet winner Jean Gaspard, high-roller David Peters, eight-time WSOPC ring winner Ari Engel, and former RRPO champion Jake Bazeley.

And those are just a few of the tough players coming back, there are no soft spots.

Lily Kiletto, Engel, and Peters will have a little work to do with their returning stacks but the structure continues to run 90-minute levels throughout the day. They will have plenty of time to run it up.

Cards go back in the air and the Championship will continue moving along until we have six players remaining.
