Sebok up to 1.225 million 
Posted on 7/14/09 at 2:27 am to The 25 Jersey
If everything keeps going the way it is going now, this is going to be one of the sickest final tables in years.

Chips for Sebok
Hung Pham limped from middle position, Joe Sebok completed from the small blind, and Montagna Corrado checked from the big blind.
The flop came 4d-Js-2h, and the trio all checked. The turn was the 6c. Sebok bet 100,000, Corrado called, and Pham folded.
The river was the Kc. This time Sebok bet 200,000, and Corrado made the call.
Sebok turned over Kd2d for two pair, Corrado Jc7h for jacks. Sebok chips up to 1.225 million after that one.

betting top pair more than likely pulls down the pot right there.

Newman's Tournament Ends with Kings into Aces
There really wasn't much Clayton Newman could have done differently in his final hand of the 2009 Main Event. He opened for 80,000 from middle position. Action folded to George Caragiorgas int he blinds, who re-raised to 280,000. Newman quickly moved all in for about 1 million and Caragiorgas just as quickly called.
Newman: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Caragiorgas: {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}
Caragiorgas got out of his chair at the end of the table and moved to stand behind the 5-seat, to better see the board. Newman remained seated until the dealer produced a {5-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Spades}. It was at that point that he stood up and grabbed his bag.
The turn came {J-Spades}. "A nice legit sweat," remarkd Newman, referring to his potential to hit a spade flush. "What do you know." No flush this time; the river {6-Hearts} sent Newman around the table to shake everyone's hands before exiting the Amazon Room.

a lot of similar hands to that knocking people out today.

I wouldn't be mad going out like that. Now if I had the AA and the spade came, then I would be a little miffed. That's just the luck component of the game in play with the AA vs KK there.

Nice hand for the Saints guy against Phillips
quote:
A TV Hand
From the button Tom Schneider opened with a raise to 110,000. In the small blind, Dennis Phillips announced a re-raise, and he made it 310,000 to play. From the big blind, chip leader Darvin Moon four-bet it up to 675,000, drawing a quick fold from Schneider. Phillips wasn't so quick to act though, and he would think things over for several minutes. After cutting down and counting his own stack, he elected to make the call.
Heads up then, the flop brought {8-Spades} {4-Clubs} {A-Spades}. Phillips slowly checked, and without missing a beat, Moon continued out with a bet of 750,000. Phillips would go for a long soak in the tank this time, clearly agonizing over a difficult decision. There were periods of complete stillness alternated with periods of chit-chat, though the conversation was too soft to hear from the table. Phillips finally asked if Moon would show, and the reply was affirmative. "Really, so you'll show if I fold?" Moon nodded again.
Finally, and reluctantly, Phillips open-mucked {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}. True to his word, Moon showed up {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}, drawing a big slap on the felt from Phillips. The two men shook hands and exchanged further pleasantries as the dealer pulled in the cards and pushed the pot to Moon.
It was a good flat-call preflop and a good laydown thereafter that will keep Phillips alive though he's been dropped down close to 1,000,000.
