The game over at Lederer and Elezra’s table broke. Then mrcall912 put out the challenge to Eli Elezra and Chau Giang to play him in $1,000 – $2,000 stakes. He bounced around for a bit as Giang seemed unwilling to play. Elezra on the other hand was more than willing to take up the challenge. It didn’t take long for mrcall912 to scoop and Omaha Hi-Lo pot off Elezra when he pulls off the nut flush with a wheel.

The pros must have smelled fish as out of the woodwork came Howard Lederer and Chau Giang to the table. Soon afterwards Ziigmund joined in the action. Ziigmund and Lederer tangle in a Stud hand right away that saw Zigmund win nearly 6 big bets with kings up.

A big three way hand then developed between mrcall912, Your_NIPMO, and Chau Giang. Action was raised on 5th and then capped on 6th streets. Giang looked to be drawing to a flush and NIPMO perhaps held two pair. Regardless, the six high straight of mrcall912 earned him a nearly $48,000 pot.

Howard Lederer then schools Eli Elezra, reminding him why Lederer is one of the best Limit Holdem players on the planet. After getting check raised by Elezra on the flop, Lederer raises Elezra on the turn after Elezra led out. Elezra was either bluffing or put Lederer on either pocket queens or pocket nines and let the hand go.

Directly after the hand Ziigmund took off. David Oppenheim took his seat. Oppenheim must have heard about the sale on fish. Everyone likes free money

Try as he might, Your_NIPMO could never get out of the fire. Finally, he was all in with a made 9 and draw to an eight. Oppenheim showed and eight. NIPMO could not improve and was busted. He chose not to continue.

At this point, play pretty much went back and forth. Mrcall912 was not showing too many cracks in the armor and chips mostly just moved around in a circle. That was until Chau Giang decided to take “the wheel” in stud 8.

After the hand, Howard Lederer chose to depart and Giang and Elezra chose to sit out at times. Eventually they would come back and they would continue to play into the night. Mrcall912 was up over $70,000 at one point and, at least for tonight, proved he wasn’t the fish that the pros may have thought he was. It should be interesting to see if he can continue this winning trend.
