Hand #94-- Michael Banducci

Michael Banducci raised to 80,000 on the button and Peter Gould called in the big blind. The flop came {6-Clubs} {A-Spades} {9-Diamonds} and Gould check-called Banducci's 105,000 bet. Both players checked the {4-Hearts} on the turn and when the {10-Spades} hit on the river Gould bet 115,000. Banducci called and showed {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}. Gould mucked and Banducci scooped the pot.

Hand #86-- Michael Banducci Eliminates Alan Jaffray (5th place, $164,963)

Alan Jaffray
Alan Jaffray
Michael Banducci raised to 80,000 and from the small blind Alan Jaffray raised to 220,000. Banducci though a moment before moving in and Jaffray quickly called. Banducci had Jaffray barely covered and his {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} had Jaffray's {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} dominated.

The {2-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} flop gave Banducci a hammerlock on the hand and as his fans cheered on the {9-Spades} on the turn sealed the deal. The {A-Clubs} on the river was irrelevant and Alan Jaffray is our fifth-place finisher, winning $164,963.
