Tony Utnage

Jonathan Kramer opened to 36,000 from the cutoff and Tony Utnage three-bet shoved from the button for 175,000. The blinds released and Kramer quickly called.

Kramer: AsAc
Utnage: AdQd

Utnage ran into a monster and the Kc7d4s6h4d board did nothing to save his spot in the tournament.

Jonathan Kramer – 540,000 (34 bb)

Level 19: 5,000/10,000 with a 10,000 ante
Players Remaining: 6 of 70

San Ganzfried opened to 20,000 and Jonathan Kramer three-bet to 65,000 from the cutoff. The button and blinds released and Ganzfried moved all in for 285,000. Kramer called and Ganzfried was at risk but in good shape to start.

Kramer: JsJh
Ganzfried: KsKc

Kramer was looking good for the double, the Qc8h5h flop was no trouble, neither was the 2d turn. The Jc river was problematic and Ganzfried was an unlucky bustout.

Jonathan Kramer – 800,000 (80 bb)
Sam Ganzfried – Eliminated in 7th Place ($10,790)

High Roller: Corey Burbick Eliminated by Jonathan Kramer on the Bubble

Corey Burbick

After some extended bubble play at the final table, Corey Burbick opened to 60,000 from early position for a good piece of his stack. Jonathan Kramer three-bet to 110,000 next to act and the rest of the table folded. Burbick called for his last 85,000 and was at risk.

Burbick: Ad9d
Kramer: AhTh

Burbick’s suited ace was smaller than Kramer’s suited ace and the 7h4s3d did not help. Burbick picked up a flush draw on the 5d turn but he blanked the 5h river to exit one spot short of the money.

Jonathan Kramer – 640,000 (64 bb)
Corey Burbick – Eliminated

Single Re-Entry Per Flight

Level 8: 300/600 with a 100 ante
Flight A Entries: 312

The tournament clock recently ticked up past 300 entries and settled in at 312 for now. Jackie Scott is not one of them as she found a tough rail, getting 22,300 in the middle holding pocket sixes. She was up against pocket fives and in great position to double up, but the 5s turn had other ideas. Her pair was no good versus a set and she was eliminated midway through Level 8.

The Main Event permits a single re-entry per flight and those unable to get here today can play Day 1B tomorrow beginning at 11am. The total figure needed to beat the $1,000,000 guarantee is 661.

It took less than hour in the High Roller restart for an entire table — eight players — to bust. With that, the tournament is down to the final 16. Defending champion Dominique Moseley is still in while Phil Hui has played his way to the chip lead.

Chad Eveslage pictured on Day 1

The $3,250 WSOP Circuit High Roller began yesterday at 4pm and played 12 levels of play. In that time, 65 entries got in the game and they bet and raised their way to only 19 left. They return today at 2pm and registration closes at that time, so both the entry count and the “returning players” figure are expected to go up a touch.

There’s a familiar face at the top of the counts as Seminole regular Chad Eveslage is looking down at everyone else. Eveslage’s stack of 295,000 is best, but there’s a stacked field on his heels including defending champion Dominique Mosley, Jeff Trudeau, Ian O’Hara, Martin Ryan, Brett Bader and others.
