Alex “JinYang” Butcher Wins a Flip for a Bounty

Blinds: 500/1,000

Alex “JinYang” Butcher and "centrfieldr23" got into a raising war preflop that saw all the chips get into the middle. "centrfieldr23" had the small pair, {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, while Butcher had the over cards, {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

An ace came right on the flop, and no further help would come for either player.

"IReadYrSoul" Gets a Knockout With Kings

Blinds: 300/600

Jon “Jetsfan411" Borenstein, "gisappak", and "IReadYrSoul" all were in the pot on the turn, with the board showing {2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Spades}. Action checked to "IReadYrSoul", who bet out 3,144. Borenstein called, but "gisappak" wanted to play for more, moving all in for 19,000 and change.

"IReadYrSoul" shoved over the top, and Borenstein got out of the way. The kings of "IReadYrSoul" were well ahead of the {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} of "gisappak", and nothing would change on the river.

"YipYeaYs" Claims First Bounty of the Event

Blinds: 150/300

It appears that "rounder1420" was able to double up through "centrfieldr23", leaving the latter with just 1,000 in chips. Those chips would go in on the next hand, and he would be called by "rounder1420", and "YipYeaYs."

On the turn, with the board showing {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, "YipYeaYs" checked to "rounder1420", who bet 2,780. "YipYeaYs" check raised to 9,230, "rounder1420" called, and the {k-Hearts} completed the board.

"YipYeaYs" shoved, which got a quick fold from "rounder1420", and good thing he did, as "YipYeaYs" showed {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a straight, good enough to score the first $100 KO of the day.
