Trading Pots

As is the case with most final tables, a majority of pots are being won by a preflop raise or reraise, this final table being no exception.

Eric Koskas Takes Small Pot from Greg Genovese

Eric Koskas put in a standard raise preflop and Greg Genovese called out of position. The flop was dealt {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} and both men checked. The turn came the {6-Hearts}. Genovese tapped the felt again and as Koskas slid out his bet, Genovese tossed in his cards. Koskas picked up the pot.

Dario Minieri limped in and Dag Palovic made it 96,000 in the seat next to him. All pass back around to Dario who makes the call. They see a flop of {2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and Dario checks. Dag Palovic moves all in and Dario quickly stands up and calls. Dario has flopped a set of threes against Dag's pocket queens. There is no help for Dag on the turn or river and he is eliminated in seventh place earning $172,507.

Gregory Genovese Reraises Eric Koskas

Eric Koskas opened the pot for a raise to 75,000 from early position. Action folded around to Gregory Genovese in the big blind who looked at his cards. Genovese gave them a look as though they were rags prompting one of the commentators to quip "that's a fold." About ten seconds later, Genovese declared "all in."

With action back to Koskas, he said "Count," although most at the table and in the gallery thought he said "Call." After the clarification, it was determined that Genovese had Koskas covered so the call would be for his tournament life. Koskas took about two minutes before finally folding and Genovese picked up a much needed pot.
