: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Alan Ahmann got things started with a raise to 800 from early position and picked up three callers along the way. The flop came 10♥9♦6♥ and Ahmann continued with a bet of 2,500. He was called by a player on his left and Kamden Keleher check-raised to 15,000 from the small blind. Jason Lizakowski made it 55,000 from the big blind and Ahmann called off his stack of just under that. It folded back to Keleher who chuckled to himself before laying down his 9♠6♠.
Alan Ahmann: 10♦7♦
Jason Lizakowski: 8♣7♥
Lizakowski flopped a straight and Ahmann was left drawing to a chop. The 8♥ rolled off on the turn to give both players a straight but Lizakowski was the only one with a flush draw. The K♣ completed the board and both players chopped the bot.

It's just the second level of the day and a massive three-way all in broke out on Table 10 with all of the chips going in preflop. David Beasley, who bagged last night, was the shortest stack with 27,000 chips, Kamden Keleher started with around 55,000 chips, and Joseph Ferguson had them both covered.
David Beasley: A♣K♣
Kamden Keleher: K♦Q♦
Joseph Ferguson: A♥A♦
The dealer fanned the flop of K♥Q♣J♦ and Keleher took the lead with two pair. The 7♦ on the turn also gave him a flush draw but the A♠ on the river was the one outer that Ferguson was hoping for. An early double knockout puts Ferguson way in front of the rest of the field but it's still very early.

Three players headed to a flop of 10♠10♥6♥ and Riley Weber took a stab at the pot with a bet of 2,500. Steve Belland called on the button and they went heads-up to the 6♦ on the turn.
Weber checked this time and Belland threw in a bet of 4,000. Weber called and the K♦ peeled off on the river. Weber checked again and Belland dropped in a bet of 10,000. Weber looked him up and Belland tabled 6♠5♠ for a full house and the best hand.

It's the last chance to advance to Sunday as Day 1c of the Roughrider Poker Tour $640 Main Event is set to get underway and a massive turnout is expected. The Jackpot Junction Casino and Hotel is playing host to the lone stop in rural western Minnesota over the August long weekend while the annual rodeo takes place just down the street.
While some people will be trying to last just eight seconds on a bull, these players will need to last a little longer than that in order to reach the money and have a chance at the title. The final starting flight is expected to be the largest one yet, as players try to navigate their way to bag by the day's end.
Last night, it was a runaway train that Anthony Scarborough jumped on en route to bagging the overall chip lead thus far with 740,000 chips. A regular at the WSOP and MSPT, Scarborough's lone major victory came on the MSPT one year ago, where he claimed over $150,000. He will now be looking to add another piece of hardware to his resume with a one-of-a-kind RPT bracelet.
The cards are scheduled to go in the air at 1 p.m. CST for Day 1c with an identical structure to the opening two flights. Players will sit down to a stack of 60,000 chips with the blinds starting at 100/200 and a 200 big blind ante. The levels will be 40 minutes in length with a 15-minute break after every three levels.
The late registration period will be open through the end of level 12, or approximately 10 p.m. An unlimited number of reentries are permitted throughout that time and many players have been making full use of that option. Play will conclude when 15% of the field is reached or at the end of level 16. Making it through to Day 2 does not guarantee yourself in the money, as Day 1b finished short of the 15% threshold.
