Ben Keeline
Ben Keeline

Ben Keeline moved all in under the gun for his last 55,000 and James Swan reshoved from the small blind for 64,000.

Ben Keeline: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
James Swan: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The flop came {k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} giving Keeline the lead with a set of threes and the turn brought the {k-Hearts} improving Keeline's hand to threes full of kings. However, that didn't last long as the {k-Diamonds} river completed the board and Swan claimed the pot with kings full of queens.

Palle Doubles Through Leitch

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Umamaheswara Palle raised to 15,000 from early position and Brian Leitch defended from the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Leitch checked. Palle bet 25,000 and Leitch check-raised all in for about 130,000. Palle snap-called with his last 40,000 and the players tabled their hands.

Brian Leitch: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Umamaheswara Palle: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

The {k-Clubs} turn and {8-Clubs} river completed the board, and Palle doubled up with sixes and fours.

Out of a field of 915 entries, only 131 players will return to the tournament area at noon local time today for the second and final day of the $360 MSPT Golden Gates Regional Event to play down to a winner.

Defending champion Aaron Frei and Ryan Brown share the overall chip lead heading into Day 2 with a stack of 443,000. These are the only two stacks above the 400,000 mark. They are followed by Ryan Shank (377,0000), Shane Murphy (376,000), and Gregory Geller (335,000).

Some notables still in the running include Zach Gutierrez (279,000), Jared Ingles (200,000), Vincent Moscati (124,000), Walter Treccarichi (86,000), and Ben Keeline (54,000).

The top 99 players will collect $659 for their efforts but the pay jumps will start to mean a bit more and become even more impactful as the field shrinks. All eyes will be set on the title, the top prize of $52,155, and the MSPT trophy.

When action resumes, players will start at Level 16 with blinds of 2,000/5,000 with a 5,000 big blind ante. Levels will be 30 minutes in length and there will be a 15-minute break every 4 levels, plus a dinner break. The tournament will transition from Big Blind Ante to Standard Ante when 27 players remain.
