A Round at Table 60 and the Chip Leader

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Phillip McAllister is the current chip leader at just under 800,000. Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier, Olivier Busquet and Jeremy Ausmus are also at table 60. Mike Watson, Justin Swilling and James Calderaro round out the rest of the table.

In one orbit, McAllister doubled up Ausmus and Swilling and Busquet raised McAllister's big blind twice from the button. When it was over the chip leader had fallen below 800,000 after peaking at 920,000.

Hand #1: Busquet had the button and the action folded to him. He raised to 7,000 and Ausmus and Mcallister folded.

Hand #2: Jason Mercier raised to 6,000 and Calderaro called from the big blind. The flop came {4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn was the {8-Spades} and Calderaro checked to Mercier. Mercier bet 8,000 and Calderaro called.

The river was the {a-Diamonds} and both players checked. Mercier won the hand with {k-}{10-} and Calderaro showed {3-}{5-} for a missed straight draw.

Hand #3: The action folded to McAllister who limped the button. Swilling checked his option from the big blind and the two players were heads up to the flop.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} and Swilling checked. McAllister bet 3,200 and Swilling raised to 7,000. McAllister called and the dealer added the {8-Diamonds} to the board.

Swilling led the turn for 8,000 and McAllister called. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Swilling shoved all in for his last 29,800. McAllister didn't hesitate too long before calling. Swilling showed {q-}{6-} for trip sixes and McAllister mucked.

Hand #4: Calderaro had the button on this hand and when the action fell to him he raised to 6,500. Swilling folded his small blind and Mercier checked his hand, then folded.

"I had four high," Mercier said.

"I called you with five high," replied Calderaro

Hand #5: Calderaro was first to act on the next hand as well. He made it 6,600 and Mercier called from the small blind. Watson called from the big blind as well.

The flop was {9-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Spades} and the action checked to Calderaro who bet 15,100. Mercier and Watson folded. Calderaro showed {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

"I'm going to show them all boys," he said, "unless it's a bluff."

Hand #6: Ausmus kicked off the action on the next hand by shoving all in for 12,900. McAllister was next to act and called. The rest of the players folded and the two were heads up.

Ausmus had {a-Spades}{j-Spades} and was ahead of McAllister's {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. The board ran out {5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and Ausmus doubled up.

Hand #7: McAllister led off the action by limping under the gun. Swilling and Busquet called and Watson checked his option. Four players saw the {4-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop.

The action checked to McAllister who bet 6,800. Swilling and Busquet called and Watson folded. Three players saw the {9-Spades} turn. All three of them checked. The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Buquet and McAllister checked. Swilling bet 18,000 and took down the pot as his opponents folded.

Hand #8: Busquet has the button again and when the action folded to him he shoved all in. Ausmus and McAllister folded the blinds and Busquet won the pot.
