McCormick got out of the way and the cards were revealed with Conron holding ![]()
and Pace on ![]()
.
Pace's fall from grace was complete after the
turn and
river came down.

In typical tournament poker fashion, East Amherst's Peter Owczarczak has suddenly vaulted to a spot near the top of the chip counts after a day lost in anonymity.
First he tripled up his paltry 25,000-chip stack when he picked up aces. A few hands later it was queens that helped him drag some more loot.
For the the past level he simply hasn't lost a hand and he's certainly played his fair share on the way to building a contending stack here at the final three tables.
