Barry McGovern
Barry McGovern

Barry McGovern raised to 1,500,000 in the small blind and Markku Koplimaa called in the big blind. On a {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop, McGovern continued for 1,300,000 and Koplimaa folded.

McGovern raised the button to 1,400,000 in the next hand and Matias Arosuo defended the big blind. On a {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop both elected to check and Arosuo check-folded the {6-Hearts} turn when facing a bet of 2,600,000.

McGovern next raised to 1,400,000 and Arosuo called out of the small blind. [Removed:328] three-bet to 4,500,000 in the big blind and that won the pot.

Up next, McGovern made it 1,400,000 to go first to act and Adam Hendrix came along out of the big blind. The flop brought {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Hendrix check-folded to a bet of 1,700,000. So far, the stack of Hendrix has taken a toll as he picked up no pots on the final day for now.
