Simultaneous Flights & Big Hands


Registration has officially closed on Flight A of the $500 Main Event at Hollywood Casino with 83 entries. Flight B kicked off just a little bit ago. Both flights will play down to approximately 10% of the field before bag-n-tag.

This is the portion of the tournament in Flight A where players either chip up or chip out. We just walked up on a big hand at Table 18 with blinds at 800/1,600. Timothy Ebenhoeh (pictured) flatted from late position only to see the button raise to 6,000. Action folded back around to Ebenhoeh who made the call.

Ebenhoeh check-called his opponent's 8k bet on the Q-5-3 rainbow flop.

He check-called another 10k when the ace of spades hit the turn.

The river brought a red 9 to which Ebenhoeh checked a third time. This time he wanted a raise but his opponenet checked behind and showed ace-jack for top pair. Ebenhoeh flipped over pocket nines for a rivered set and scooped the big pot. With that hand, he has chipped up to over 125k.

Flight A Entries - 83
Level: 12
Blinds: 1k/2k/2k

Flight B Entries - 35
Level: 2
Blinds: 100/200
