Peters Busts Bolek and Fortini in Huge Pot

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Chris Bolek and Hayden Fortini have just been eliminated in stunning fashion to Jimmy Peters, who has now taken over as the chip leader with nearly 90,000.

On the {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop, a raising war broke out between the three players that saw all the money go in. Peters had the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for middle set, Bolek had the {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for bottom pair and a flush draw, and Fortini had the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for a royal flush draw.

The turn was the {7-Spades} to keep Peters in front. The river was the {A-Clubs}, pairing the board and giving Peters a winning full house. Peters had both players covered, and Bolek and Fortini were eliminated.
