Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Imran Bhojani raised to 10,000 from under the gun and Stephen Courtney called in the next seat, Janno Cazemier defended the big blind. The Q♠9♦9♥ flop was checked to Courtney, who bet 13,000. Cazemier folded whereas Bhojani opted to call.
On the 3♣ turn, Bhojani checked and Courtney bet 30,000 with around 70,000 behind. Bhojani check-raised to 110,000 and Courtney instantly grabbed two of his time bank extensions, then tossed them to the dealer.
Ultimately, Courtney called it off and was at risk.
Stephen Courtney: K♠Q♥ 
Imran Bhojani: J♣9♠
Courtney was on thin ice, needing a queen to survive, but the 6♠ river ended his run at the end of Day 1b, securing all other 14 players the spot on Day 2.
