A player raised to 7,500 from middle position and in the hijack Lewis Almonte called while all other players folded.
The flop rolled out 9♣Q♠4♠ and the middle position player bet 2,400 which Almonte responded to by raising to 6,000 which the middle position player called.
On the turn 3♥, the middle position player checked and called a bet of 11,000 from Almonte, with both players checking the river 6♠.
Almonte showed K♠Q♥ for a pair of queens and he took down the pot.

Action was picked up in a pot between Chris Wowk in late position and another player in the cutoff.
The board read 4♣3♦2♣ and with a pot containing 25,600 both players checked. On the turn 6♦, Wowk moved all in for 64,000 effective and his opponent went into the tank. After a long time thinking, the player called to put herself at risk.
Opponent: A♦J♥
Chris Wowk: 5♥5♦
Wowk turned a straight and the river 10♠ did not fill in the board's one-liner, giving him the massive pot.

Two years ago at the Golden Nugget, Thomas Nefcy won the title, defeating Kourtney Simms heads up for $37,115.
Today in the final flight, both of them are seated at the same table. A feeling of déjà vu seeing both of these BPO regulars at the same table.
