Boatman Makes the Right Call
Filip Mikulas opened to 1,000 from middle position and was called by Robin Zagorski in the hijack, Barny Boatman on the button, Alessandro De Michele in the small blind and Samy Hazan in the big blind for a five-way pot.
Action checked through on the 4♥3♥9♣ flop and it was checked to Zagorski, who bet 2,200 on the 2♠ turn. Boatman called and everyone else folded.
The 7♠ completed the board and Zagorski fired 6,200 into the middle. Boatman tanked a bit, but eventually decided to look Zagorsky up.
Zagorsky motioned that Boatman was good and Boatman revealed 10♠3♠ for just a pair of treys. Zagorsky sent his hand into the muck and Boatman was sent the pot.
At another table PokerStars ambassador Georgina James was spotted taking her seat. James said she is looking forward to playing the mixed-game championship later in the tour, but will first take her shot at the Eureka Main Event.
