FCP Bob 1,321 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 The WPT Returns to the Place It All Began Level 1: 50-100, ante Ten years ago, the Five Diamond World Poker Classic kicked off the first season of the World Poker Tour. A lot has changed over the past ten years and the tour has grown exponentially, but one thing that remains the same is that the Five Diamond event is one of the most anticipated tournaments of the year. The list of past Five Diamond Champs is a veritable who's who of top poker pro and includes Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hansen, Joe Hachem, Daniel Alaei, Eugene Katchalov, and last year's winner, two-time WPT Champion Antonio Esfandiari. This year is once again going to feature a field packed with poker's elite, including Negreanu, Jonathan Little, Hoyt Corkin, Jason Mercier, Erik Seidel, Nick Schulman, Ben Lamb, and Vanesa Selbst. Last year's field drew 438 runnres and tournament staff are expecting a similar turnout this time around. Tournament Director Jack McClelland and the WPT's own Mike Sexton are now giving the opening remarks and cards should be in the air momentarily. Link to post Share on other sites

He thought for 5 secs and jammed 30k into my Kh9h nut flush! :)JustinFiltz Justin Filtz He had 5h3h for a lower flush. pic.twitter.com/MIuThV6SJustinFiltz Justin Filtz 88,850 chips at 2nd break going to 100/200/25! Busted a 2nd player! My As4s vs his KhKc on 96x 2 spades flop for a 23k pot. Qs on the turn!Justin Filtz Busts His Second PlayerLevel 2: 100-200, anteJustin Filtz filled us in on the details of this hand, which was the last one before the break.Eric Froehlich raises under the gun to 600, a player calls from middle position, the cutoff calls, Justin Filtz calls from the button, and the big blind calls. All five players see a flop of 9-6-x with two spades, and it's checked to the middle position player, who bets 2,500. The cutoff calls, and Filtz raises to 8,600. The big blind folds, Froehlich folds, and the middle-position player moves all in for 10,125.The cutoff folds, and Filtz calls with A4 for the ace-high flush draw. Middle position turns over KK, and he'll need it to hold to stay alive.The turn card is the Q, giving Filtz the ace-high flush to win the pot and eliminate his opponent.Justin Filtz - 88,000JustinFiltz Justin Filtz Card player odds say I was 45% to win.1 hour ago Favorite Retweet ReplyJustinFiltz Justin Filtz Sigh just lost a huge 75k pot to be chip leader.

Fluffdog87 2 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Ended Day 1 with 57,200 chips going to 300/600/75. I'm in 103/283 left. Average is around 51.k with 283/3655 players still in. You can reg for another 2 levels so we may break 400. Played really good all day and busted 2 players early to get to 90k. I played a 75k pot to put me in the chiplead with 130k with 2 full levels left if I had won. I had 5d3d all-in vs Ad4d in a pretty standard spot vs Golfa Ryan DeAngelo that I made a raise and called the jam on the flop. Flop was 9d3x2d. Cardplayer said I was 45% to win. Day 2 table looks like not a ton of chips on it. Only players I saw that I know are Jon Little and Dan Shak. Feeling good about how I played going into Day 2.Gl to Daniel on Day 2!
