Event 1 (Day 2): “Do You Have a Note?”

POSTED BY: cmurray

|CATEGORY: 2016, Event 1, Event 1 (Day 1D)

$500+$60 Deep Stack NLH

Level 19:  Blinds 4,000/8,000/1,000 ante
Total Entries:  1,658
Players Remaining:  165
Average Stack:  258,000

Houang Dang (West Babylon, NY) Huang Dang (West Babylon, NY)

With just five off the bubble and well into the second day, one player has arrived even later than Matt Affleck. It’s Houang Dang, and she’s got four chips left, three blues and a yellow.

The table ribs her but also has been wondering: could she have just cashed, absent? Can she cash now?

Matt Stou in seat 3t kids her as well, “Do you have a note?

Dang laughs.

She knows she’s in trouble, and decides to immediately go with {9x}{5x}.

There’s a sidepot which David Johnston folds, and that’s helpful.

Unfortunately, even though she hits second pair, her other opponent, Jason Velasco has top pair on a Jack high flop.

She’s out, and no doctor’s note will help.

One closer to the money.

Nick Palma moves all in for his last 36,700 and gets one caller. Palma turns over {2h}{2c} and his opponent shows {3h}{7h} to the surprise of Palma.

The board runs out clean for Palma {5d}{kd}{4d}{10h}{qh} to earn him the pot. He has been grinding a short stack for much of the night and his patience finally paid off as he finds a late double up.

Nick Palma- 85,000

Norm Michalek had been holding steady in the middle of the pack through much of this Day 1D. He has broken out of the middle of the chip counts and now finds himself in contention for the chip lead.

After his table broke he was able to scoop a big pot in one of the first hands at his new table. Michalek is now playing about 325,000 with less than three levels of play left in the night as he looks for his first BPO title.

We catch up to the three handed action with about 25,000 in the main pot on a flop of {4s}{jh}{kc}. Mila Krylova checks and the under the gun player checks. The player on the button bets 13,000 and Krylova calls.

The under the gun player folds and they go heads up to the {9s} turn. Krylova checks again to her opponent who tosses out a bet of 22,000. She wastes little time check raising all in for her last 46,600. Her opponent thinks it over for about a minute and eventually folds earning Krylova the pot.

Mila Krylova- 130,000
