"Hey Jesse!"
Ray Henson yelled across the $500 PLO Championship floor. "Hey Jesse! Get this guy's picture!"
Henson pointed toward Stephen Baze and Baze just shook his head. "Steve is wearing the exact same thing that he wore yesterday and you have to put him on blast." PokerNews doesn't often follow these sorts of commands from the players but Henson is the King of Texas Poker and you have to respect that. Hopefully Baze will run deep and cash in the PLO Championship event so he can wear clean clothes tomorrow as the Main Event gets started.

At 300/500, Bijan Rostamian raised to 1,000 from the UTG+1 position. Action folded around to Blake Barousse in the small blind who made the call. Kennii Nguyen also made the call from the big blind position.
Flop: 
All three players checked their action and a free card was shown.
Turn: 
After the weakness shown on the flop, Barousse led out from early position for 1,800. Nguyen folded and Rostamian made the call.
River: 
Barousse tanked for a moment before checking to Rostamian. Rostamian wasn't going to give the pot away for free and bet 2,000. Barousse quickly folded and the pot was pushed to Bijan Rostamian.

Kim Stone, owner of the Lone Star Poker Series is seated in the $400 NLH Jacked Stack event. Directly on her left is Twitch Poker Streamer and extremely hairy man, Alex "AlexOptional" Green. Looks like they are having a fun time with a full table of chips to try to capture.

Bruce Walters opened the action from UTG with a raise to 3,000. Roetker in the UTG+1 seat called and action folded around to Jonathon Ajlouny on the button. Ajlouny made the call as did Ernesto Bayaua in the small and Ray Henson in the big blind. Five players were still in after the raise to see the flop.
Flop: 
Bayaua checked and Henson opened from the big blind to 3,000. Walters called and Roetker raised it up to 11,000. Action folded around to Henson who announced "I'm all in." and after Walters folded, Roetker tossed a single chip in for the call.
Henson: 
Roetker: 
The 
turn gave Henson a heart flush draw in addition to the flopped straight both Henson and Roetker had but the 
river meant that these two were going to make the dealer split the pot in half.
