Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler just lost a big pot versus Jonathan "Fatal Error" Aguiar in one of the last hands of the night. Aguiar was all in preflop. Once Kessler called him, Aguiar said "Please have kings." He got his wish, as Kessler indeed had K-K.
When Aguiar showed his hand -- A-3 -- Kessler had a comment as well: "Oh no."
The flop changed nothing, but the turn brought a trey, and the river another trey, and Aguiar survived. Kessler gets knocked back to 7,000 right before night's end.
"I'll give everybody in here $200 a piece if they'll play another two rounds," said Sam Grizzle. No one seemed ready to jump at the offer.
Grizzle has about 17,500.

The button open-raised, then Sorel Mizzi, who finished runner-up after that wild last hand in the $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event (No. 35) a couple of nights ago, reraised pot to 2,700 from the small blind. The big blind folded, and the button called.
The flop came

Lisandro, of course, just this week won a bracelet in the $10,000 World Championship Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo Eight-or-Better event, a point that was clarified for the benefit of Robert Williamson III.
"Oh, so that's why," said Williamson, finally getting why everyone was so impatient to get out of the Stud/8 round.
"What would you prefer, we play stud?" quipped Lisandro, the game in which he won his other two WSOP bracelets. Lisandro has also made WSOP final tables in H.O.R.S.E., Pot-Limit Omaha, 2-7 (the NL single-draw variety), and finished 17th in the 2006 WSOP Main Event, so there really isn't much place to hide when you're at his table.
Lisandro is doing well in the other six games today, too, having built his stack up to 28,000.
