Flight B now streaming live

Players are now back from their second break of the day, and a feature table is now streaming live at www.FoxwoodsLive.com. 63 players remain from the 73 players that started, and the blinds are now 200/400 with a 50 ante.

Ladies final table reached


The final table has been reached in Event #8 $230 NLH Ladies. The remaining nine are now guaranteed $475, and play will continue at 5,000/10,000 blinds with a 1,000 ante.

Flight B Update

Flight B is wrapping up Level 5, which means blinds are 100/200 with a 25 ante. So far there are 73 entries and 65 players remain. Here are some chip counts from around the room:

James Campbell - 55,000
Eric Siegel - 43,000
Chris Leong - 40,000
Alex Rocha - 34,000
Soukha Kachittavong - 32,000
Steven Tabb - 32,000
Raj Patel - 31,000
Dominik Pelli - 25,000

Three more hands

With 10 minutes left on the clock, the tournament staff has drawn a card, and three more hands will be played on every table before players bag up for the night. The board currently reads 62 players remaining.

Last level of Flight A


Flight A is now playing the last level of the night. 65 players remain from the 145 that started in this flight. Here are updated chip counts for select players:

Dave Stefanski - 160,000
Tim Reilly - 135,000
Andy Frankenberger - 89,000
Chris Tryba - 83,000
Tom Dobrilovic - 78,000
Ralph Macri - 77,300
Kevin Calenzo - 44,000
Fred Paradis - 30,600

James Campbell has been eliminated


We arrived at James Campbell's table to see him all in from the cutoff and called by the big blind. James was in great shape to double up with A-Q against A-T. The 9-9-5 flop gave his opponent some chop outs, but instead he hit a ten on the turn. No queen came on the river, and James will be eliminated from Flight A.

Flight B is Under Way

As Flight A of the Championship Event nears the last break of the night, Flight B has begun. Je Wook Oh, Eric Siegel, and Soukha Kachittavong are among the players to have already taken their seats. Play will last until approximately 1:30am in Flight B.

1st Place: William Davis Jr. ($11,572)


On a [Tc][Qs][Ks] flop, William Davis Jr. went all in and Don Russell called all in for less. William had flopped bottom two pair with his [Qh][Th], and it was ahead of Don's [2h][2c]. Don would need a deuce to survive, but it did not come when the turn fell and river fell [5s][Kd]. Don will exit this tournament in 2nd place, collecting $8,000 for his efforts.

William Davis Jr. has won Event #7 $300 NLH Big Stack, taking home $11,572, the title, and the trophy. Congrats, William!

Don Russell doubles through William Davis Jr.


With a 4 to 1 chip deficit, Don Russell was all in with ace-eight against the ace-six of William Davis Jr. Don made two pair to double up, and now sits on just over 2,000,000 William's 3,600,000 in chips. The blinds have just gone up to 50,000/100,000 with a 10,000 ante.

3rd Place: Chris Leong ($4,858)


From the button, Chris Leong moved all in from the button and Don Russell called all in for less from the small blind. William Davis Jr. folded the big blind, and Don was in good shape to double up with his [As][Kd] against Chris's [Ac][9s]. The [6c][Qd][Ks] meant Chris could not win, but the [Ts] turn did bring chop outs. The [2c] river was not the jack Chris was looking for, and he will ship over 1,000,000 to Don.

Chris was left with around 300,000 after the hand, and he got those chips in a few hands later with [Kc][Js] against William Davis Jr.'s [Ac][6h]. Chris was live all the way to the river on the [Qc][4d][7s][8c][5h] board, but he failed to improve, and will exit this tournament in 3rd place. Chris will collect $4,858 for his efforts.

4th Place: Michael Labarge ($3,891)


Michael Labarge was all in from under the gun and William Davis Jr. made the call next to act. The other two players got out of the way, and Michael would be at risk with [Js][Tc] against William's [Ad][9c]. The [9d][5c][7d] flop gave Michael a gutshot to go with his two overs, but the [4d] on the turn meant those cards could not be a diamond. The [Qd] missed Michael's draw and gave William the winning flush. Michael will exit this tournament in 4th place, collecting $3,891 for his efforts.
