Daniel Idema
Daniel Idema

After a series of preflop betting, Daniel Idema got all of his chips into the middle against big stack Daniel Vampan.

Daniel Idema: A?5?All in
Daniel Vampan: Q?9?

Idema was in the lead with his ace-high, but he needed to dodge a lot by the turn 2?10?7?J?, and the Q? on the river gave Vampan a pair to send Idema out in tenth place.

Idema Doubles First Hand

Level 23 : Limits 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
Daniel Idema
Daniel Idema

In the first Hand dealt of the day, short stack Daniel Idema got it all in preflop for 130,000 against Nick Caltabiano, who covered.

Daniel Idema: K?K?All in
Nick Caltabiano: 4?4?

Idema was sitting in pretty good shape with his kings and the flop of K?3?J? wasn't the worst flop for him, either.

The runout of 9?2? secured him the win and he scooped the pot for the double. He then went on to take down the next hand and is up to 420,000.

A starting field of 248 hopefuls has been reduced to just ten going into Day 3 of Event #25: $3,000 Limit Hold'em 6-Handed inside the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. They will all be chasing the top prize of $148,635 resulting from a $662,160 prize pool. Daniel Vampan leads the pack after bagging up 2,470,000 last night, which is nearly a million more than his next-closest competitor Frank Yakubson, who ended with 1,840,000.

Also still in contention is Roland Israelashvili, who has the record for the most WSOP cashes ever with an incredible 500 cashes (after this event comes to a close) for a total of $3,937,284 earnings (plus whatever he wins today). Israelashvili, who has 11 Circuit gold rings, has had several close calls to winning a gold bracelet and looks to capture his first today.
