Forman-Todd Gutshots His Way To Broadway

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user67765]

We caught the action on a flop of {9-Spades}

with a player in the middle position firing 1,250 chips into the middle. Steve Forman-Todd made the call.

The turn was the {Q-Clubs}

and the middle position player moved all in for his last 1,850. Forman-Todd made the call but only held {A-Clubs}

and would need to hit his gutshot as his opponent revealed pocket nines for a set.

Wouldn't you know it, the {10-Clubs}

peeled off on the river to give Forman-Todd the broadway straight and the pot to send his opponent steaming out the door.

Forman-Todd is now amongst our chip leaders with 16,000 chips.

of Chhoy as his two pair collected the double up.

Quoc Nguyen check-called on the turn and then fired a bet of 600 on the river on a board of {A-Spades}

. His opponent made the call and tabled {A-Clubs}

for top pair which was good as Nguyen mucked his hand.

"What a bad time to bluff...I'm playing terrible poker!" sighed Nguyen. "I'm just a donkey! Please help me dealer...any picture card and I'm going!"

Nguyen is down to 1,500 in chips.

PokerNews.com's Editor in Chief John Caldwell has just managed an early double up, courtesy of an aces over kings situation.

Action folded around to Caldwell in the CO+1 position and he made it 250 to go before the flop. His next door neighbor and 6th place finisher at the 2008 Aussie Millions Main Event Antonio Casale then reraised from the cutoff, kicking it up to 750. Holding two red aces, Caldwell decided it was time to get it all in, and pushed his remaining ~3,500 stack across the betting line. Casale made the call and tabled {K-Clubs}

.

A queen-high board ensued and Caldwell secured the double up, putting him at right around 7,000 in chips.

Another notable player in today's field is Michael Chrisanthopoulos who is well known for his deep run at the Aussie Millions.

He recently took a hit when he fired out bets on the turn and river on a board of {6-Hearts}

. His opponent immediately moved all in and Chrisanthopoulos insta-folded. He is down to 2,300 chips.

Today's tournament will move very quickly with players starting with only 3,000 in chips and the blinds moving up every 25 minutes. We expect many players to adopt a "double up or go home" attitude as we've already seen in the early goings.

Level: 2

Blinds: 25/50

Ante: 0
