Prince Bounces Back

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Action was three ways with 9,600 in the middle and 4J3 on the board when a player in the under-the-gun position bet 3,500. Another player called from the small blind before Antwan Prince shoved from the big blind for 18,100.

That was enough to get the other two players into the muck and take a pot that moved the champ back above the starting stack.

Germany on the Turn With Diamonds

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Ron Germany
Ron Germany

Ron Germany stopped by the PokerNews table to relay a hand that took a big chunk out of Antwan Prince's stack.

Action was heads up with 35K on the flop when Prince bet and Germany shoved his short stack of around 10,000. Prince called and the cards were turned up.

Ron Germany: 64 All in
Antwan Prince: 64

Both players were open ended but the A turn brought a flush for Germany to secure the double and make the river completely worthless.

Antwan Prince
Antwan Prince

Antwan Prince is back in action with an attempt to defend his title from the inaugural RGPS stop in Jacksonville in April of 2023. Prince cut a deal to take the top prize of $92,796, as well as a bestbet trophy and the coveted RGPS ring.

It marked the largest score of Prince’s career, despite entering Day 2 with one of the shorter stacks in the room and reaching the final table fourth in chips.

Tahhusoglu is So Back

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Thomas Carroll raised to 1,000 from early position and a player two seats over called before Razaman Tahhusoglu made it 4,000 from late position. Carroll folded and the other player called to go to a flop.

The flop was 8KA and Tahhusoglu bet 10,000 after his opponent checked. That was good enough to take the pot and he showed AA for good measure.

Ramazan Tahhusoglu busted his first bullet just moments into Day 1c when his pocket kings ran into pocket aces, but his second bullet seems to pass the vibe check, so far.
