Barrie Pietersz is one of the bigger stacks in the room, he plays about 100,000 at the moment. Not only did he bust Jorn Walthaus not too long ago, he also won two other big hands.
Pietersz told he flopped a straight versus a flush draw first, and won quite some chips there. His opponent had a gutshot on top of his flush draw, but Pietersz blocked those outs with his flopped straight, so it was just the flush outs he had to worry about, which stayed in the deck.
Not much later, he won another huge one.
Pietersz told us he made a bet on 
with two spades holding 
. His opponent made the call. On the turn an off suit 
appeared and Pietersz bet again. His opponent raised, and Pietersz called. The river 
made his opponent bet all in for two times the size of the pot, and Pietersz tank-called with his rivered straight. His opponent had 
for a lower straight, and Pietersz gained a lot of chips.
Jorn Walthaus, who traveled all the way from Hong Kong to play this tournament, walked by the media desk just now. He told us he had just been eliminated, though we couldn't have told that by his face as he was still all smiles.
Walthaus told us he had lost a lot of his chips in a hand against David Boyaciyan. In that hand Boyaciyan had opened to 400 and Walthaus had called. A short stack had shoved all in and both Boyaciyan and Walthaus had called. On a flop of 
with a flush draw, Boyaciyan had bet out 3,500. Walthaus had made the call. The on the turn made Boyaciyan check, and call Walthaus' 4,500 bet. The river 
made Boyaciyan bet out 8,000 and Walthaus folded. Boyaciyan showed in that hand, the all in player had and busted.
Walthaus had just 7,500 left after that hand and found himself all in not much later. After two limps, a player made it 1,200. Walthaus shoved all in and Barry Pietersz, the second limper, re shoved all in, the other player who had made it 1,200 folded. Pietersz showed up with queens and Walthaus with pocket sevens wouldn't improve.
Samantha Abernathy has been on quite a tear today, as we just spotted her raking in another pot. The player on the button raised to 550 and both players in the blinds, including Abernathy in the big blind, called.
The flop brought out 
and both blinds checked to the initial raiser who bet 1,250. The player in the small blind called, and Abernathy check-raised up to 3,250.
Both other players involved folded and Abernathy picked up another pot.
On a flop of 
Zinno called a bet of 1,525. The three-time World Poker Tour champion checked behind on the river, only to see a 
pop up on the river. His opponent checked, and Zinno bet 3,000. The insta call followed, and Zinno announced his kicker jack, while showing 
. His opponent showed 
and mucked.
The player in second position opened and Elliot Smith made the call. Noah Boeken on the button squeezed to 1,800 and the big blind cold called. The initial raiser gave up, Smith called.
Three players saw a flop of 
and action checked around. All three of them checked on the 
as well and they saw the 
river for free. The big blind checked and Smith bet 2,000. Boeken called from the button.
The big blind had much bigger plans though, quite unexpectedly check-raising to 10,000. Smith frowned and folded, but Boeken wasn't so eager to lay his hand down. He shrugged, leaned forward, and called after some thirty seconds of tanking.
The big blind reluctantly rolled over 
for a bluff. Boeken showed 
and took it down.
We just spotted Samantha Abernathy in today's event, and it happens to be her birthday. So, happy birthday to you Samantha!
Now let's get down to business, as the hand we watched with Abernathy did not go so well for her.
The action started on Erik van den Berg who raised to 400 and Floris van der Ven made the call. The third player that got involved three-bet from the button to 1,575 and Abernathy called from the big blind.
Van den Berg and Van der Ven both folded, and the action was heads up.
The flop brought out 
and both players checked. On the turn the hit and Abernathy bet 2,300. Her opponent made the call and the river was the 
. Both players checked this time around and Abernathy showed 
. Her opponent tabled 
and his pair of fours took this pot down.
With 80,000 chips however, Abernathy is still in good shape.
