Event 1 winner Brett Streicher (Odessa, FL) and runner-up Andre Lomans (Orlando, FL) are on the same table. Streicher overcame a big chip deficit in the opening event of the Seminole Hard Rock Summer Poker Open to win $74,000, while Lomans settled for $44,187.

Meanwhile, Barry Wiedemann (Orlando, FL), who won the WPT Regional here last summer for $88,000, decides to gamble before re-entry ends.

Wiedemann says he was down to 13k and raised without looking against Mike Monaco who bumps it to 3k, After sneaking a peek at his cards, Wiedemann moves all in and Monaco calls.

Barry Wiedemann: 5x4x
Monaco: 10x10x

The flop is clean for Monaco, but Wiedemann goes runner-runner 5x5x for winning trips. Wiedemann doesn’t need to re-enter as he’s up to 29k, while Monaco drops to 22k.

Players are heading towards the end of the level and have through the next break before registration closes at ~11:30 pm.
