Boatman's Surge Continues
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Barny Boatman limped in from the small blind with A♦8♠ and David Kaufmann checked his big blind with Q♦10♥. Boatman then continued for 300,000 on the 4♣K♥7♦ flop and a call followed from Kaufmann.
The 9♥ turn was checked by both players and so was the K♠ river, leading to Boatman's ace-high winning at showdown.
The next hand Boatman raised to 500,000 with 10♦5♦ on the button and received a call from Aleksejs Ponakovs in the big blind, playing 5♠3♠. Boatman flopped a flush on 7♦3♦4♦ and made a bet of 400,000 chips after Ponakovs had checked.
Ponakovs then raised to 850,000, seeing Boatman put in a quick call. Ponakovs slowed down and checked the 8♠ turn before folding when Boatman tossed in a bet of 1,200,000.
