Ko Gets Paid by Trunk; Patka Raises Tomescu Big on the River
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
David Dongwoo Ko and Daniel Trunk were heads-up on a board of 8♣6♣K♥3♦ when Ko bet 42,000 from the cutoff. Trunk called in the big blind.
The river was the 4♥ and Ko bet another 146,000. Trunk quickly called and Ko turned over K♦8♦ for two pair to win the pot.
At the same time at another table, George Tomescu and Tomas Patka built a pot of around 180,000 as they headed to the river on a completed board of 10♥9♥J♥Q♣6♥. Tomescu then bet 25,000 from middle position.
Patka came back with a raise to 325,000 in the cutoff, sending Tomescu deep into the tank. "At this table, we're going to use all the time banks the first hand," Patrik Jaros joked as the minutes ticked by. Tomescu eventually folded and Patka showed J♦J♣ as he took the pot.
