Another day at the Bellagio is in the books.  With about 20 minutes left in play the action was paused and a random draw was conducted to see how many more hands each table would play.  Matt Brady pulled a 4 and after each table finished their hands play was done for the night.  For Blake “Balla-B13″ Cahail (right) the 4th and final hand of play was a big one.

With almost 70k in the pot on the turn the board ending up reading 74388 Cahail checked to the other player who bet 50k.  Blake then raised all in for what looked to be about another 50k.  The other player tanked for a few minutes but ended up folding his hand leaving himself roughly 50k chips to go into day 2 play.

Matt “Plattsburgh” Vengrin had a solid day and was among the chip leaders for most of the day.  Near the end of the day he was able to pick up a relatively small pot off of Jason “JCarver” Somerville with a bluff on the river.  The board was K42JK and Vengrin bet 11k.  Somerville thought for a moment, finally folding his hand.  Vengrin offered to let him see if he wanted and Jason took him up on the offer.  Vengrin turned over the 87.

Full end of day chip counts will be available shortly.
