Michael Gathy gave it a shot next hand, opening to 80,000, before taking down the pot.

Hand #148
Benjamin Reason would win the next hand with a repeat bet of 80,000 from the button.

Hand #149

Hand #150
Benjamin Reason opened to 80,000, and we saw our first flop of {7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades} after Michael Gathy made the call. Both players were happy to check, before the {4-Spades} came on the turn. A bet of 95,000 from Gathy was called, before the {A-Hearts} completed the board. Check-check would follow, before Reason showed his {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a pair. Gathy then showed his {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a higher pair, as he took down the first significant pot between the two.
