The board ran out {8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Vo was eliminated as Kelly picked up his first $2,000 bounty. Vo didn't leave empty handed though, he earned three bounties along the way for a total of $6,000.

Michael Pesek

On the board of {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{A-Clubs}, Michael Pesek bet 6,000 before Paul Matteo raised to 16,000. Pesek moved all in and Matteo called to put himself at risk. Pesek held the {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} for top set and Matteo the {A-Spades}{3-Spades}. Matteo was drawing dead and the river completed the board with the {3-Hearts}. Pesek won the hand and earned his only bounty of the table, but it's the most important one as it's the one that allows him to move onto the final table.
