In a heads-up pot on a board of 9♠2♣A♦, Cary Katz checked in middle position and Joey Weissman bet 20,000 from the next seat. Katz check-raised to 60,000 and Weissman called.
Katz bet 40,000 on the K♦ turn and Weissman called. Katz then checked on the 9♣ river and Weissman checked back.
"You've got it," said Katz, but Weissman wanted to see it and he eventually showed 10♠6♠ to lose to the A♠Q♥ of Weissman.
Event #9 winner Sean Winter won't be going back-to back after he was eliminated at the hands of Joey Weissman.
The board showed 3♦7♦Q♥5♦4♥ with Weissman holding A♠A♥, while Winter's hand had already been mucked.
"I only gambled because of that leaderboard," Winter said.
Before he could leave, Winter got a compliment on his biceps from PokerGO boss Cary Katz.
"Can you bench more than Koon?"
"Ehhhhh..." thought Winter without answering.
