Bohn Trips Up Pelton for Double

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

The two players took to a {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop where all the chips went into the middle.

Blake Bohn: {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Chan Pelton: {q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Both players connected with the flop, but Bohn was in the lead and the {8-Spades} turn didn't change a thing.

The {a-Clubs} river improved Bohn to trips and secured him his double-up for 7,775,000.

Pelton Turns Broadway to Double Through Bohn

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

A series of preflop raises saw Chan Pelton get his 7,775,000 stack into the middle and was called by Blake Bohn.

Chan Pelton: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Blake Bohn: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

Bohn found himself holding another dominating ace and paired his king after one appeared in the window on the {6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{k-Clubs} flop.

Unfortunately for Bohn, it also gave Pelton a Broadway draw which he completed after the dealer turned the {j-Diamonds}.

The {5-Hearts} completed the board on the river and Pelton collected his double-up.
