Total Entries: 3,270
Total Remaining: 12
Average Stack: 6,810,000

Zo Karim is all in preflop for 1,055,000. Farid Jattin thinks about it, and re-raises all in to isolate Zo, which works. Farid has {Kc}{Qd} and Zo {Kd}{5c}, so Zo is way behind. The board is no help: {8c}{4h}{Qs}{As}{8d} and Zo is out in 13th place.

Event 10 (Day 2): We Sound Like a Broken Record

POSTED BY: Tropical Steve

|CATEGORY: 2016, BorgataPoker.com, Event 10, Event 10 (Day 2)

Event 10 – $1,000,000 GTD ‘Borgata Million’
Level 32 (80,000/160,000/20,000)
Total Entries: 3,270
Total Remaining: 13
Average Stack: 6,300,000

Tony Cheng just busted another player with 10-10 versus 4-4. That player had three big stacks of 25K chips, putting Tony closer to nine million and the definitive chip lead. Before this event, Tony’s biggest previous cash was $4,975 at an event in Delaware. He’s guaranteed at least $8,242 in this event — and probably a lot more.

Another player went out at the other table, and there are now 13 left. Three more bustouts tonight.

Event 10 (Day 2): Too Close to Call

Table 2 has the two biggest stacks left in the tournament. Both Tony Cheng and Hector Chevalier have eight million in chips each. Together they have 30% of the total chips in play! They seem to be pushing around the short stacks, as in a hand where Tony busted a player in 18th with {Ah}{Ac} versus {Ad}{Ks} on a {6h}{6s}{9s}{3d}{8s} board. It’s entirely possible that these two might run the table and meet heads up tomorrow. We’ll see where this goes.

On a flop of {10h}{4d}{7s}, Sam Taylor throws out 600,000 from the button. Tony Cheng re-raises all in for 2,065,000 total.

Sam goes into the tank for a long time, talking through the hand to himself. He looks at his hand several times, and after what seems like an eternity, he folds it. “Show the bluff. $50 if you show!” Sam pleads. Nothing doing — Tony mucks his hand, and Sam will never know.

Tony has over $45,000 in tournament winnings, including two cashes at Borgata. Three cashes now, regardless of how he finishes here.

Just before the break, Albert Destrade busted in 43rd, and he was nice enough to reference one of Will OC’s posts as he left. Thanks for reading the blog, Albert!

Event 10 (Day 2): Fifteen-Minute Break

POSTED BY: Tropical Steve

Level 28 (30,000/60,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 3,270
Total Remaining: 40
Average Stack: 2,040,000

The final five tables in the Borgata Million event are on a 15-minute break. There are about two more levels tonight before the staff determines what to do next. The players could play on until 10 players; they could break at 2 a.m.; or by some miracle, they could bust 30 players in two levels and end early. Watch this space to find out what happens.
