Petrangelo Savages Haxton

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Nick Petrangelo bet 8,500, which looked to be over the size of the pot, from the big blind on {3-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, with Isaac Haxton putting in a call from the button. On the {7-Clubs}, Petrangelo fired 28,000 and Haxton mucked fairly quickly.

"Got 'em with the savagery," Petrangelo said, looking down at a card.

"Show the queen of hearts," Haxton said.

Petrangelo flicked in the {q-Hearts}.

"Had to be the queen or jack with a backdoor flush draw," Haxton said of his eerie read. "He said it was savagery."

Bonomo Finds a Heart on the River to Double

Justin Bonomo
Justin Bonomo

Brian Rast opened the button to 3,000 and Justin Bonomo three-bet the small blind to 13,000.

Rast called, and on the {3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, Bonomo continued for 20,000 and Rast called.

The turn fell the {A-Hearts}, and Bonomo announced he was all in for 61,500, and Rast snap-called.

Bonomo: {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Rast: {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Bonomo was at-risk holding a flush draw against Rast's top pair and gutshot.

Fortunately for the 2018 Super High Roller Bowl Champion, the river landed the {4-Hearts}, and Bonomo scooped a double back to being just shy of the starting stack.

Koon Folds "Huge F****** Hand"

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Jason Koon overbet with 10,000 from the small blind on a board of {9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Nick Petrangelo called in the big. The river was a {10-Clubs} and Koon downbet 5,500. Petrangelo dropped in a stack of chips to set him in for his last 30,000 or so.

Koon thought for awhile and used a time extension then lifted his hand and leaned over to show the dealer.

"What do you think of that?" he said. "That's a huge f****** hand, isn't it?"

He dropped it in the muck.

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Christoph Vogelsang raised to 3,000 from under the gun and Brian Rast called in the cutoff.

The flop landed {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Vogelsang checked to Rast who bet 5,500. Vogelsang called, and both players checked the {7-Spades} on the turn.

The river fell the {5-Hearts}, and Vogelsang bet out 13,000 only to have Rast announce he was all in for roughly 130,000. Vogelsang folded, and Rast collected the pot.

Spades and a Chip up for Davies

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante

Dan Smith opened to 2,500 from under the gun and Seth Davies called next to act. Brandon Adams three-bet his button to 13,000, and both Smith and Davies called.

The flop landed {J-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Smith and Davies checked to Adams who continued for 22,000. Smith called, as did Davies, and then the {9-Diamonds} on the turn checked through.

The river fell the {2-Spades}, and Smith announced a bet of 28,000. Davies called, as did Adams.

Smith revealed his {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, and Adams his {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. However, it would be Davies' {A-Spades}{7-Spades} for the nut flush that would earn him the pot.

Adams First to Rail

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,500 ante
Brandon Adams
Brandon Adams

Brandon Adams raised to 14,000 in the big blind and Justin Bonomo called in the cutoff. The flop brought {2-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Spades} and Adams bet 16,000. Bonomo continued to the {3-Diamonds} turn. Adams jammed for about 75,000 and Bonomo quickly called.

Adams: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Bonomo: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Bonomo's overpair was in great shape, and the {3-Clubs} river missed Adams.
