Green Doubles in Cooler
Level: 12 (1,500/2,500/2,500) Entries: 19/75 Prizes: $21,375 There are about 10 minutes to play in Level 12 with a break following this level. Cliff Green just got a double for his short stack when his pocket eights held against the pocket sixes of the Seniors champ from Series 4 Ron Taylor. While the flop didn’t change anything, the board of 6♠A♣8♣A♦J♣ got comments from the table with Taylor commenting “Set over Set”. Taylor still had a decent stack in front of him after the hand.
-
Down to 22
Level: 12 (1,500/2,500/2,500) Entries: 22/75 Prizes: $21.375 Level 12 has just begun with 22 players left in the action, 14 away from the money spots. They’ll go on a break at the end of this level and I’ll get full counts for all remaining players then. The average stack right now is a bit less than 40 big blinds.
-
Final Three Tables
Level: 11 (1,000/2,000/2,000) Entries: 25/75 Prizes: $21,375 They are down to the final three tables in the Seniors game now with 25 players left alive. There are a bit more than 10 minutes to play in Level 11.
-
Clarke Gets a Double
Level: 10 (1,000/1,500/1,500) Entries: 29/75 Prizes: $21,375 Rob Lothian opened the action from under the gun with a limp and Bernard Buyar bumped it up to 4,500 from the middle. It folded around to Jeff Clarke on the big blind and he shoved for a bit more than 15k.
Lothian had a short think about it but mucked his hand before Buyar snap called it off for a race between his pocket jacks and the ace-queen for Clarke. The board of A♥4♥10♠6♦4♣ gave Clarke his ace in the window and it was all he needed to double to near 35k now.
-
Down to 29 Left
Level: 10 (1,000/1,500/1,500)Entries: 29/75 Prizes: $21,375 They are nearing the final three tables of action in the Seniors game now with 29 players left alive. There are just under 15 minutes to play in Level 10 with the next break scheduled after Level 12. I’ll grab a full chip count at the break.
-
$7,271 for the Winner
Level: 9 (600/1,200/1,200) Entries: 32/75 Prizes: $21,375 The prizes are now confirmed with 8 players sharing $21,375 with the winner set to pocket more than $7k at the end of the night. Full prize details are under the payouts tab.
The field is down to 32 players left now with just over 5 minutes to play in Level 9.

That number still needs confirmation, but if it holds, 8 players will be sharing in $21,375 in prizes later tonight. I’ll get a full round of chip counts at the next break.
