High stakes cash game regular Mikita Badziakouski open shoved his last 120,000 or so from middle position. Mike Watson on the bubble reshoved and both blinds quickly folded.
Badziakouski was in trouble holding as Watson tabled . The board ran out and Badziakouski headed for the exit.
"How's things?" Haxton asked who just joined the table. "Better now" Watson replied while stacking his newly won chips.
Mustapha Kanit raised it up to 17,000 and Steve O'Dwyer behind him shoved for 123,000 total from the hijack. The cutoff, button and both blinds folded, Kanit instantly called.
Right before registration closed, Jean-Noel Thorel walked up to the registration desk, handed over another �50,000, and received a ticket to give it one more try. He made his way back to the tournament area, handed over the receipt, received 200,000 in chips, and walked over to his table.
There was just one problem, though. Thorel had already reentered once, and this event was scheduled with single reentry only. While Thorel was wandering to find his seat, he was called back by the floor right before he sat down. Thorel was told the event was indeed single reentry and that registration had made a mistake. The floor staff showed Thorel the structure sheet to be sure he understood, then Thorel gave back the chips and went on his way.
In one of the last hands of the last level, Mark Teltscher opened to 11,000 from the cutoff and Jason Mo shoved all in for 72,500 from the blinds. Teltscher asked for a count, asked to have his 11,000 bet pulled in, asked to have the pot spread, and called after Mo said he was kind of indifferent about what decision Teltscher would make..
Mark Teltscher:
Jason Mo:
The board ran out and Mo doubled. Teltscher still had plenty left.
Steve O'Dwyer busted 20 seconds before the last level, and was told he could re-enter and didn't have to rush to the registration desk to do so. O'Dwyer is the last one to enter, registration has closed now.
Justin Bonomo lost his chips in the first hand of the new level. He double checked with the floor if he was able to re-enter, but couldn't.
