Koon and Wittmeyer Left Short Near End of Day
Level 12
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jason Koon and Christoph Vogelsang were heads up on a turn of 5♣3♥Q♠4♦. Vogelsang checked from the big blind before Koon bet 130,000 from the hijack.
Vogelsang called before both players checked the 2♠ river. Vogelsang tabled 5♦2♦ for two pair and won the pot when Koon slid what he claimed to be kings in the muck.
On an adjacent table, Roberto Perez got his stack of 620,000 in from the hijack against Brandon Wittmeyer under the gun.
Roberto Perez: Q♥Q♣ 
Brandon Wittmeyer: J♣9♣
Perez hit a set on J♥K♦Q♦ and Wittmeyer did not make a straight on the subsequent 6♠ turn or 4♦ river, doubling up Perez and leaving Wittmeyer with just three big blinds.
