Level 28 (Blinds 40,000/80,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 2

After losing two consecutive pots, Justin is now below 20 bigs (1,580,000).  Just as Liberto was building back up, he lost two crucial pots.  On a board of 5♦ 6♦ 7♣ J♦ K♥, Liberto ended up calling off 750,000 on the river only to see Aditya table 7♦ 8♦.  Justin would then get check-rasied off a pot only a few hands later, leaving him where he is now.

Justin Liberto - 3,550,000

Level 27 (Blinds 40,000/80,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 2

Justin Liberto has 13 big blinds, as he loses the first sizable pot heads up.  On a board of 4 7 8 10 K (with the action check-called by Aditya on the flop, check-check turn, and check-call river for 310,000).  Justin would turn over 10 2 on the river, but would see that Aditya rivered two-pair (K 8).

Only two hands later, Justin would be all-in for the first time in heads up play.  Aditya would call:

Justin: K♥ J♥           Aditya: K♦ 8♠

Flop: Q♥ 9♥ 3♣

Turn: 4♥

River: 10♦

Justin would double to 1,850,000.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 3rd Place - Cologna ($44,029)

Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 2

Mike Cologna (Freehold, NJ)
3rd Place - $44,029

It seemed destined for the two short stacks to get involved with each other, as Liberto and Cologna got the chips in pre.  It was a race as Justin held 5♥ 5♣ against the A♥ 10♥ of Cologna, with Justin coming out on top.  The board would run out 3♦ 8♠ Q♥ J♥ Q♠, giving Cologna extra outs on the turn, but he was not able to find one that he needed.

The two players discussed a chop for only a few moments before deciding to play things out.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Liberto Takes From Cologna

Level 27 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 3

Justin Liberto just took down a pot from Cologna with an all-in check raised on a flop of A J 2, knocking Mike down to 750,000.  Liberto sits at just over 1,500,000 after winning the pot, and it doesn't get an easier on the two short stacks.  Blinds will be going up in seven minutes, as players will be going on a (10) minute break.

When they players return the blinds will be 40,000/80,000/10,000 (5,200,000 chip average).

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Cologna Doubles Through

Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 3

Mike Cologna had just over ten blinds, having trended downward since three handed play began.  He just got it in pre versus Aditya, for a pot worth 1,600,000.  Cologna's AA > 77 of Aditya, but not without a sweat on the 5 6 9 J Q runout.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): An Uphill Battle

Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 3

It's going to be an uphill battle for either Mike Cologna or Justin Liberto, with Aditya holding close to 12,000,000 (of the 15,500,000 in play).  They both sit around 1,700,000, and have gotten the best of each in a few pots since getting down to three handed play.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 4th Place - Scekic ($32,037)

Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/10,000)
Players Remaining: 4

Milos Scekic (Massapequa, NY)
4th Place - $32,037

Milos Scekic would see a flop heads up with Aditya Prasetyo, in a blind v. blind situation.  The flop would be A♥ 7♠ 9♥, and Prasetyo would check to Scekic.  Milos would put out a bet of 200,000, and Aditya would follow with a check raise to 500,000.  With the action back on Scekic, he would then three-bet to 1,200,000.  Prasetyo would continue once again with a five-bet all-in, leaving Milos sitting with his face in his hands...deciding what to do.  Milos would eventually announce a call and the hands would be tabled:

Scekic: A♦ J♣         Aditya: A♠ 9♣

Turn: 7♦

River: 2♠

Aditya's two pair would hold and he would watch as the dealer shipped over all of Milos's chips.  He now has close to 75% of the chips in play:

1. Justin Liberto - 2,600,000
2. Mike Cologna - 1,700,000

Dilip Ravindran (Jersey City, NJ)
5th Place - $25,002

Dilip shoved under the gun for 900,000 and the action would fold around to Aditya Prasetyo in the big blind.  Aditya would make the call, and his A 10 > 6 6 of Dilip, sending the chips Aditya's way and Dilip to the podium to get paid out.

There is (4) minutes remaining in Level 26, and players will be on a (10) minute break at its conclusion.  Updated chip counts will be posted once players leave their seats and go on break.

Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 5

In a heads up pot between Prasetyo and Liberto, the board would read 7♣ 10♦ J♦ Q♦ 3♠, and Prasetyo would have a river bet of 550,000 in front of him (after Justin checked river).  The pot was already over 1,900,000, and just would take a few looks at his chips before making the call.  Prasetyo would turn over 3 3, and just would fold his hand with a shake of his head.

Aditya Prasetyo - 7,700,000
Justin Liberto - 2,500,000

Players Remaining: 5

Dilip: J♠ 10♦       Aditya: A♠ K♥

Flop: Q♦ 8♥ 5♠

Turn: 2♥

River: 9♣

Ravindran would make a straight on the river, doubling up to 1,600,000.

Players Remaining: 5

Dilip Ravindran is left with just under 600,000 after losing a sizable pot to Aditya Prasetyo moments ago.  Ravindran made calls on both the flop and the turn of a board  reading K♣ J♦ 9♥ 3♥ Q♣, but folded the river when Aditya put out enough to put Ravindran all-in.

Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 5

Mike Cologna is now the short stack among the five remaining players after a failed bluff against Dilip Ravindran.  On a board of K J 7 Q 7, Cologna put out a river bet of 375,000 (about half pot sized bet).  Dilip would talk to himself a little while thinking, but eventually put out the chips for a call.  Cologna would turn over A 4, while Ravindran would table K Q for the win.

Dilip Ravindran - 1,500,000 (30 bigs)

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 5

John Botticello (Manalapan, NJ)
6th Place - $19,691

Justin Liberto opened the pot under the gun to 80,000, and get called in every except one (Cologna folded UTG +1).  The flop would come out 9♠ 5♠ 2♠, and both Milos and Justin would check.  John Botticello would be next to act and he would announce himself all-in (1,300,000).  Aditya Prasetyo was next to act, and he would stare down John's chips before also going all-in (3,800,000).  The table would fold behind and John would ask Aditya, "Ya on a draw?":

Flop: 9♠ 5♠ 2♠

Botticello: 5♥ 5♣       Prasetyo: A♠ 6♠

Turn: Q♠

River: K♣

Botticello's set would be flushed out by Aditya, and John would be eliminated in sixth place.  With that pot Aditya would assume the chip lead, sitting with 5,500,000.

John wanted to make sure he said hello to his wife Kathy, and kids Brandon and John who are following the blog!

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Updated Counts

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)

4. John Botticello - 1,400,000
5. Aditya Prasetyo - 3,800,000
6. Dilip Ravindran - 1,500,000

Mike Cologna was the shortest stack at the table, but Justin Liberto just doubled him up moments ago.  On a board of 4♥ 3♦ J♣ 5♦, Justin bet enough on the turn to put Mike all-in.  Cologna would think for a moment before making the call, and doubling up with A♠ J♣ against the 10♦ 4♦ of Liberto.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 7th Place - Bryan ($16,638)

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 6

Tim Bryan (Atlanta, GA)
7th Place - $16,638

Tim Bryan was the shortest stack at the table with less than fifteen bigs, and the action would fold around to him in the small blind.  He would put out a stack of yellow chips (325,000), and the action would be to John Botticello (second shortest in chips).  John would announce himself all-in, and Tim would actually take a few moments before putting in his final 190,000.  The two hands would be tabled:

Bryan: A♥ 9♥           Botticello: 8♥ 8♣

Flop: Q♥ 4♦ 3♠

Turn: 10♥

River: 3♦

Botticello would win the race and his pocket eights would hold up.  Botticello would chip up to 1,450,000 with the win, and now has over 30 bigs.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 8th Place - Lind ($13,895)

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)

Players Remaining: 7

Staffan Lind (Vero Beach, FL)
8th Place - $13,895

Staffan Lind would open under the gun to 80,000, and the action would quickly fold around to Milos Scekic in the big blind.  Milos would three-bet to 300,000 and watch as Lind put together a sizable four-bet and pushed it across the line.  Milos would then five-bet all-in (having Lind covered) and Staffan would toss one yellow chip across the line signifying a call:

Milos: A♠ A♥        Staffan: K♣ K♥

Flop: Q♥ J♦ 3♥

Turn: 6♦

River: 4♥

Staffan would run into a cooler as his kings were trailing at every point throughout the hand.  This was his second final table of the series, and he collecting a chip lead bonus ($1,000) during the Big Stax 300.

Milos is now over 3,200,000 with his new found chips, and players begin to spread out a get a little more comfortable at this seven handed final table.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 9th Place - Zambanini ($10,399)

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 8

Matthew Zambanini (Wilmington, DE)
9th Place - $10,399

The action would fold around to Aditya Prasetyo on the button, and he would open the pot for a 80,000 raise.  Matthew Zambanini was next to act in the small blind and would three-bet shove his remaining stack.  Dilip Ravindran would fold the big blind, and after asking for a count (580,000 total), Prasetyo announced a call:

Aditya: K♠ Q♥        Matthew: K♥ 10♥

Flop: A♥ 9♠ J♣

Turn: 8♥

River: J♠

The flop would bring no extra outs for Zambanini, but he would turn the flush draw for a sweat going into the river.  The board pairing on the river would not help, and Matthew would be the first player to leave Day 3.  Aditya would add Matthew's chips to his stack, and he is now the chip leader with just under 4,000,000.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Who Are They?

Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Liberto Leads The Way

When Kevin "Kevmath" Mathers throws a Tweet out there, the poker world is put on notice.  Many eyes will be on the coverage of the final table, as Justin Liberto continues a torrid month of tournament poker.  Liberto leads the way going into Day 3 with 3,800,000, but there are eight other players that aren't willing to hand Justin the trophy just for showing up.  Cards will be in the air at 1:00pm, and live coverage will be bringing every moment at the final table.

Level 24 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 9

Greg Himmelbrand was never able to gain traction after losing what was a crucial spot (88 < QQ to Botticello), and he busted in the very late stages of Day 2:

Busto in 10th 66 < KJ after losing a lot w 88 to QQ earlier for $7600 and change. Pretty annoyed :/

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Botticello Doubles Again

Level 24 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 10

John Botticello pushed once more, this time over the open of Greg Himmelbrand (for 430,000).  Greg was clearly on the fence about calling, and John's table talk almost got Himmelbrand to fold (according to what Greg said).  Greg would eventually put a pile of chips in, and he'd be behind with 88 against the QQ of Botticello.  John's pocket queens would hold, and he is now over 1,000,000.  Greg is now the short stack at the tabled with under 400,000.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Botticello Doubles Second Hand Back

Level 24 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 10

John Botticello had less than ten bigs, and shoved over Justin Liberto's 60,000 open.  Justin would quickly make the call when action folded back around, and he'd have John dominated with AK v. A6.  The flop would give John the lead (A 6 3), and he would hold for the double to 430,000.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Break/Chip Counts

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Bryan Doubles

Level 23 (Blinds 12,000/24,000/4,000)
Players Remaining: 10

Tim Bryan shoved his remaining 190,000 over an open from Staffan Lind, and when the action folded around the Lind he would begrudgingly make the call.  The short stack at the table would get the double as his AA > A4 of Lind.

Wiith Bryan getting over 400,000, that leaves John Botticello as the shortest stack of the bunch (380,000).

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Starting Off At A Crawl

Level 23 (Blinds 12,000/24,000/4,000)
Players Remaining: 10

Since going to the final table the action has been fairly slow, with not many flops seen at all.  Only a few hands have gone to showdown, as players will make a pay jump with the next elimination.  Tim Bryan is the short stack at the final table with just over 10 big blinds.

Players Remaining: 10

Staffan Lind opened the pot from the button to 60,000, and was three-bet by Chris Tryba to 130,000.  Lind would then four-bet to 330,000...followed by a five-bet all-in for 800,000 by Chris.  Staffan would make the call and Chris's AQ < AK of Lind.  Tryba would get his first cash at Parx (in his first tournament played here), and will be leaving for Las Vegas $7,611 richer.

The players are now redrawing seats at the final table, and have agreed to bag chips after the next elimination.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Oboodi & Mendelsohn Eliminated

Level 23 (Blinds 12,000/24,000/4,000)
Players Remaining: 11

Bobby Oboodi (Morris Plains, NJ) shoved his less than ten big stack in pre from the cutoff, and was flatted by Justin Liberto (small blind).  The action would fold behind and the two hands would be tabled.  Bobby's A 3 < A A of Liberto, and the WPT champ would be eliminated in 13th place ($6,239).

While Bobby was walking over to the podium, Dalip Ravindran and Peter Mendelsohn would get the chips in on the flop of 5♥ 6♠ 9♥.  Meldelsohn would table A♥ 8♥ (combo draw), while Dalip would turn over 6 6 (set of sixes).  Mendelsohn would hit his flush on the turn, but he would be drawing dead as the same card that made his hand gave Dalip a full house.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Bryan Survives

Level 23 (Blinds 12,000/24,000/4,000)
Players Remaining: 13

Tim Bryan (375,000) and Bobby Oboodi (190,000) are the shortest stacks remaining, and Bryan found a lucky river to stick around.  Bryan got his A 10 all-in pre against the A J of Prasetyo, but the board would run out Q 8 3 3 3, and the two players would chop the hand.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Break Time (Chip Counts)

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Run Like Liberto

Level 22 (Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000)
Players Remaining: 13

As the chip counts were being collected, the pot of the tournament was unfolding at Table 46.  The action would be picked up on the river, as Justin Liberto had just put James Kaplan all-in for his tournament life.  The board read 8 7 J 8 K, and James was talking out loud, saying that he was actually thinking about folding a full house.  He continued to think for a short while before making the call and seeing that Liberto had rivered a full house with KK.  James would show the table that he had J 8 before wishing everyone good luck and walking to get paid.

This is James' second super deep run in this Big Stax series, chopping the Big Stax 500 earlier this week for $40,000.  James collects $6,239 for his 14th place finish.

Justin Liberto - 2,800,000
Jame Kaplan - Eliminated

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Smith Sent Home

Level 22 (Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000)
Players Remaining: 14

Mike Cologna opened the button to 45,000, and was subsequently three-bet by Milos Scekic to 100,000 (from the small blind).  Akash Seth was in the big blind, and he would four-bet all-in for just over 200,000.  Cologna would fold behind, and the hands would be tabled after Scekic made the call. Seth's A 10  < 8 8 of Milos and Akash would be eliminated in 15th place (taking home $6,239).

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): 16th-18th Places ($5,310)

The following players cashed in the event for $5,310:

16. Alex Bolotin (Brooklyn, NY)
17. Jewook Oh (New York, NY)
18. Akash Seth (New York, NY)

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Bolotin Eliminated

Level 22 (Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000)
Players Remaining: 15

Alex Bolotin (Brooklyn, NY) had just over ten bigs in front of him, and when he pushed from the button, he was called by Staffan Lind in the big blind:

Bolotin: K♦ Q♥       Lind: K♥ J♥

Flop: A J 6

Turn: 6

River: K

Lind would outflow Alex to take the lead, and Bolotin was not able to find a runout to keep him in the tournament.  This is Alex's first tournament cash at Parx, to now add to what is already an incredible resume.

Big Stax 1500 (Day 2): Kaplan's Back

Level 22 (Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000)
Players Remaining: 17

James Kaplan had just over 20 big blinds, and got his remaining 564,000 in pre against Chris Tryba.  The two hands were tabled:

Tryba: A♣K♥         Kaplan: 5♣5♠

Flop: 10♣ J♠ Q♣

Turn: Q♠

River: 5♥

Tryba was in supreme shape, event having Kaplan's runner-club outs covered.  James would need to go perfect-perfect to make a full-house and win...and that's the exact runout he got.  The reaction over the river was more from the table than it was from the two players involved in the hand, as both continued on pretty straight faced as the chips were counted and shifted over James's way.

James Kaplan - 1,100,000
Chris Tryba - 800,000

Level 17 (Blinds 3,000/6,000/1,000)
Players Remaining: 55

James Kaplan

James Kaplan already has a Big Stax final table during this series, and he's beginning to set his sights on another one.  Kaplan started the day with a little over 120,000, but now has close to 600,000.  The action was picked up on the river, with a board of 3♠ 9♦ 6♥ 6♠ 5♦.  There was about 250,000 in the pot already, and Vitaly Kovyazin had checked to James.

Kaplan thought for a few moments, and then decided to check back.  Vitaly was very slow to table his hand, so James turned over his pocket sevens, which would be good for the win (and the chip lead).
