The player on the button calls all-in for his remaining $4,500 and shows A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3], while Nasr flips up A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and is behind. The board comes 7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]7[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and both players' kickers play, doubling up Nasr's opponent. Nasr's stack is now down to $5,500.

Shulman goes all-in and his opponent takes some time out to think. Eventually, the clock is called and his opponent mucks his hand. After mucking his hand, his opponent claims to have folded the K [/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. After the hand, Shulman is up to $31,000. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Fri Jul 21 23:47:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Karlo Lopez Takes One Out[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Karlo Lopez ($35,000) calls when his opponent moves all-in for his remaining $10,500. Lopez shows A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and will need to improve when his opponent shows Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]Q[/SIZE][SIZE=3]for the lead. Lopez gets a huge amount of help from the flop when it comes A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]5[/SIZE][SIZE=3], and the turn and river don't give his opponent any help with they come 9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and 2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Lopez eliminates his opponent and now sits with $46,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Fri Jul 21 23:53:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jean-Robert Bellande Busts[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Jean-Robert Bellande pushes all-in for his remaining $4,400 preflop in late position and another player re-raises.

Bellande shows 6 [/SIZE][SIZE=3]4[/SIZE][SIZE=3], while his opponent dominates him with 6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]6[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. The board comes A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]8[/SIZE][SIZE=3], improving neither player and eliminating Bellande. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sat Jul 22 00:08:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Round For Round Play and Increased Blinds[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]As the money bubble approaches, play has become round-for-round, and the blinds have increased for level 10, to a $200 ante and $600-$1,200 blinds. If players reach the money, level 10 will be the final level of day one. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sat Jul 22 00:13:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Rashid Takes Out Thorson, Needles Bonetti[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sam Rashid has William Thorson covered as Thorson moves all-in preflop for his remaining $10,200. Rashid shows pocket Jacks, while Thorson flips up A-K and will need to improve. The board does not improve either player and Thorson is eliminated. Rashid now sits with $25,000.[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]After the hand, Rashid looks at John Bonetti, also sitting at his table, and says, "How does such an ornery old man like you have such a beautiful granddaughter?" Bonetti's granddaughter stands along the rail next to the table. Bonetti does not respond to Rashid. [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Sat Jul 22 00:26:00 PDT 2006[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Karlo Lopez Folds Monster[/SIZE] [SIZE=3]Two players are all-in preflop, including Debbie Lavigne for $16,200, causing Karlo Lopez to fold. Lavigne shows A [/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and will need to improve when her opponent flips up K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]K[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. She does just that when the flop comes A[/SIZE][SIZE=3]J[/SIZE][SIZE=3]9[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Lopez yells when he sees the flop and goes to his supporters on the rail beside him. The turn and river don't improve Lavigne's opponent when they come 5[/SIZE][SIZE=3]and 2[/SIZE][SIZE=3]. Lavigne rakes in the pot to double up to $33,000, leaving her opponent's stack down to $5,000. Lopez tells the table that he had folded pocket 9's, which would have given him a set on the flop and taken out both opponents. Lopez has $46,000 in his stack.
