Fifteen players remain in Event No. 24, the $1.5 NLHE event, incuding Andy “BKiCe” Seth (pictured at left), Glenn “TheGFactor” McCaffery and Brian “fitzfitz” Fitzpatrick.
Seth, who started the day as chip leader, dropped a few pots early before adding to his stack.
There was about 150K in the pot with the blinds at 10K/20K with a 3k ante when we caught up with the action on the flop of A

. Seth’s opponent led out for 80K and he made the call. The turn was the T
. This time the lead out from the other player was for 150K and Seth folded.
In another hand, Seth made a raise from the cutoff before the flop before watching the big blind move all in for around 200K more. Seth mucked his hand. The same thing happened at the tournament’s other table to McCaffrey. He made a raise from the cutoff and a person in the blinds moved all in for about 480K, prompting McCaffrey to fold.
Seth made another raise to 54K before the flop a little while later and was called by the big blind. Both players checked the 8

flop. The turn was the 8
. The other player led out for 75K and Seth called quickly, reaching for chips before his opponent finished putting his bet in the middle. The river was 7
. The big blind led out for 150K and Seth raised enough to put him all in. The other player folded and Seth was up to about 1.45 million after the hand.
McCaffrey looked to have about 850K at last check while Fitzpatrick had around 660K.
