Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Ted Forrest, Max Pescatori, and Justin Bonomo played a pot that saw no bets through sixth street. They were in for the completion, and Forrest had only 10,000 more.

Seventh street brought interesting events. Pescatori, who had open fours from fourth street, led out. Bonomo was next to act and raised with three clubs on his board. Forrest stood up and looked on both opponents' boards thoroughly. He eventually folded to leave him self with less than a half of a bring-in.

Pescatori said to Bonomo, "I hope you don't have ace-three of clubs and another low card," and then called.

Ted Forrest: / /
Max Pescatori: / /
Justin Bonomo: / /

Bonomo rolled over , thinking he was chopping. "You have that!" said Pescatori, and Bonomo gave his seven-card hand another look.

"Oh my god, I misread my hand. I'm so sorry," he apologized. "I was trying to bluff you away from the fours."

Pescatori failed to make his low, but his high was stronger than Forrest expected. "You made two pair?" Forrest asked before calling on seventh. Pescatori had something better with in the hole.

Treccarichi, however, pulled out one more bet on seventh street, causing troubles for Pescatori, who mumbled something to himself and mucked. Pescatori is now the shortest stack on Table 2.

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

After doubling through Max Pescatori, Ted Forrest just added another chunk to his stack. This time, he took a bite from Justin Bonomo's.

Bonomo completed with an ace, and Forest called with an exposed three. Bonomo barreled fourth and fifth streets but slowed down on sixth. Forrest bet, and Bonomo went into deep thought. He scanned Forrest's stack, shook his head several times, and eventually gave up.

Justin Bonomo: / (folded on sixth street)
