Level 21
5000/10000/1000
Players Remaining: 5
All eyes in the tournament area shifted to the feature table after Michael Farris let out a long list of expletives and almost punched a hole through the table.
It all started with Nick Palma opening the action pre-flop and barreling on the flop and turn of the [3h][Qc][Qs][7s] board. The [Jh] hit the river and Nick Palma checked to Farris.
Farris pushed out a pile of red chips good for a bet of 100,000.
"How much?" Palma asked with a tone of disgust, "I call."
Farris confidently tabled the [6c][6s] and Palma flipped over [Jd][9s] and would take down the pot of over 300,000.
This sparked an outburst of cursing, obscene gestures, and anger from Farris to which the entire table was entertained. He has cooled down since, but is still visibly aggravated.
Palma now sits with 400,000 and Farris is back down to around 200,000. Players will be heading on their 60 minute dinner break in 8 minutes.

The [3d] was a good card for Perzano but O'Neil spiked a [5d] on the river to send Perzano home. Perzano will take home $2,560 and the remaining 8 players are guaranteed $3,159.

Blinds 3000/6000/1000
Players Remaining: 9
Action folded around to Nick Palma in the small blind who raised to 14,000. Michael Farris reraised from the big blind to 35,000 only to have Palma click it back with a four-bet to 62,500. Farris flatted and we were heads up to the flop.
[As][9h][Qd]
Palma lead for 32,000 and Farris quickly raised to 65,000. Palma counted out chips and eventually pushed in a call.
Both players checked the [Kd] turn and things would heat up as the dealer peeled the [Jh] on the river.
Palma announced he was all in as Farris dropped the chips he was shuffling and sat back in his chair.
"This is so sick!" He said to himself as he started counting down his stack. After a minute or so he folded and Palma scooped a monster pot, putting himself over the 300,000 chip mark.

All day there has been constant chirping between John Doe and Nick Palma. In the latest development Doe checked his action to Palma on the [8h][Qd][9c][7s] board. Palma slid forward a stack of red 5,000 chips and announced all in. Doe sat back in his chair and crossed his arms, visibly frustrated. He counted out his remaining chips and eventually released his hand. The banter continued after the hand but the table remains in high spirits laughing and joking with each other.
We are down to 13 players which now means we are officially on the money bubble.

Action folded around to Tim "Wicked617" Reilly in the small blind who put in a four-bet to 11,000. The player under the gun thought about it for a few moments but eventually released his hand into the muck and action was back on the player in middle position. After counting down his stack once or twice he slid forward a pile of orange chips and announced all in. Reilly snap called and nodded his head when he saw his opponents [Qc][Qd]. He tabled [As][Kh] and we were off to the races.
The board ran out [9s][10s][Kd][8s][5c] and much to the dismay of his opponent, Reilly would rake in the pot and is now sitting on over 65,000.

Event 14: Martin Bluff Shoves River
Level 24
Blinds 12000/24000/4000
Players Remaining:3
Stewart Kaplan pushed in two towers of red 5,000 chips on a board reading [7c][8d][Ks][Qd][2h] totaling a bet of 200,000. Mathew Martin wasted no time in announcing all in for an additional 260,000 over Kaplan's bet.
Kaplan put his hand on his chin as he pondered what to do, but eventually slid his cards into the muck. He smiled and said "nice hand" as Martin tabled [7d][9h] for flopped bottom pair that he merged into a bluff.
Martin now sits with over 800,000 and Kaplan drops to around 900,000.

Players Remaining: 4
Jack D'Agostino opened the action to 60,000 from under the gun. Kaplan folded and the action was on George Ferreira who announced all in for his last 360,000. Action folded to D'Agostino who called off his last 70,000 and we were headed to the river.
Ferreira: [Kc][Ks]
D'Agostino: [Ad][Js]
D'Agostino looked destined for a double up when the dealer spread the [3s][As][7h] flop and was still ahead on the [7c] turn. Ferriera threw his hands up in frustration but that would quickly turn into a fist pump when he saw the [Kh] spike on the river. D'Agostino will take home $2,476 for his 5th place finish.

Pete Wagner opened action on the button to 250,000 and Schinco got out of the way in the small blind. Ralph Macri announced he was all in for 1,900,000. The clock read 1:45 remaining in level 31.
"I'm probably going to use the rest of this time" said Wagner as both of his table mates told him to take as much time as needed.
He kept telling himself that Macri has to have sevens, eights, or nines but eventually would fold [Ac][Qs] face up.
"That's a huge lay down, but I was going to get luck on you" Macri said with a smile as he tabled [Ad][3d].
Players are back from their break and the blinds are now 60,000/120,000 with a 20,000 ante. All players are sitting with right around 2,000,000 in chips.
