Today we started with 490 players in Day 1B of the 2022 Bar Poker Open. Play just halted for the night with 25 players advancing to Day 2 action on Wednesday. Below are the “Casher’s” from today play: 36th Bob Beland Jr. GL $550 38th James Faireneny CH $525 45th Rich Collier CH $525 47th […]
Blinds – 6000/12,000/12,000 Jeff got it in preflop with sixes and got called by someone who had pocket eights. The flop goes 8♦ 6♥ 3♦ 10♠ 10♦. Losing set over set is a tough one to swallow
Blinds – 6000/12,000/12,000 Now that everyone is in the money, Rich went all-in for 37K followed by 3 other players. Two of which were short stack Rich had King/Jack. All others had Ace/King. A Jack hits the river and collects almost 100,000
Blinds – 6000/12,000/12,000 We have been in hand for hand more for more than 20 minutes because the short stacks are surviving. Rich Collier just got his Aces cracked by Ace/King when the board goes K♣ 6♥ Q♦ K♠ 2♦ and now is in survival mode.
Updated chip counts as we start the 5000/10,000/10,000 Level: James Faireneny 320,000 Jeff Weinberg 300,000 Bob Beland Jr. 170,000 Brian Lundy 150,000 Jeff Bowden 150,000 Kourtney Sims 130,000 Chuck McCaughey 125,000 Rich Stepanian 100,000 Brad Cormier 80,000
Players are on a 15 minute break. When we return the blinds will be 5000/10,000/10,000 with about 67 players. The top 54 get a min cash of $500. We have lost a few players including Slade Edmonds who was “our” biggest stack.
Blinds – 3000/6000/6000 Players Remaining: 81 With nine tables left and playing nine handed…that leaves us with 81 players with the top 54 getting to cash. We just lost Nancy St. Laurent who just lost her stack to guy who had back to back Aces. Our field is getting low!
Blinds – 3000/6000/6000 Chuck puts in his last 47,000 on a prayer with A♥ 9♥ and gets one caller with A♦ K♣ As you can see, Chuck was behind until the 7 comes on the river to give him a straight. He now has a little over 105,000
Slade Edmonds 350,000 James Faireneny 200,000 Kourtney Sims 160,000 Bob Beland Jr. 160,000 Brian Lundy 120,000 Jeff Bowden 117,000 Nancy St. Laurent 103,000 Jeff Weinberg 90,000 Sam Ho 85,000 Rich Stepanian 85,000 Brad Cormier 80,000 Chris P. 75,000 Rich Collier 73,000 Nada Smith 21,000
