Tomassi Climbing

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Rob Burgstahler shoved from early position with the {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Lou Tomassi reshoved from a few spots over. Action folded to the small blind who thought it over for a few seconds as Tomassi flashed us his {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. "Just fold," Tomassi said. Both blinds obliged, and it was heads-up.

Tomassi put a stranglehold on the hand with the {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop, and Burgstahler hit the rail after he bricked the rest of the board.

Bowen Cracks Aces

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

With the board showing {9-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, Roy Sorgenfrei committed all of his chips with the {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} and Brian Bowen snap-called with the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. Bowen stood up as the {3-Hearts} and {8-Hearts} completed the board and he tapped the table in excitement before raking in a huge pot.

Bowen is now the chip leader with around 115,000.

The 100

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With the seconds ticking down in Level 8 there were 99 entries on the tournament board, but one player was at the ATM and yelled to hold a spot for him. That brought the field to an even 100 — a great start to this event. Registration is now closed and there are four more levels in Flight A before the players bag and tag.
