Klass Cracks Kings Making Quad Queens

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante
Guy Klass
Guy Klass

There are very few people that run better than 2017 Western New York Poker Challenge Main Event Champion Guy Klass.

His charmed life continued here today when he ran queens into kings all in preflop for what was a dwindling stack.

Of course, Klass didn't just spike a set to crack the kings, he made quads for the double up. All signs now point to Klass holding at least that stack going into an upcoming 15-minute color-up break.

Double K.O. For Sardo

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante
Jason Sardo
Jason Sardo

Jason Sardo scored a double knockout moments ago to move up close to the top of the counts here in the last level before the second break.

The player under the gun made it 1,600 and got one caller before Sardo looked down at two kings. He let it rip and both players called off shorter stacks with two nines and {k-}{q-} respectively.

In the end, Sardo made a salt-in-the-wound king-high flush to send both players to the rail and push up to 80,000.

The Bourne Legacy

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante
Brad Bourne
Brad Bourne

Rochester, NY's Brad Bourne has been identified as the runaway Level 6 chip leader as he closes in on the 100,000 mark.

He flopped a set of deuces on a {J-}{10-}{2-} board and got it in against not one, but two players holding the {k-}{q-} open-ender. Bourne did not need to sweat it for long, as the {10-} turn filled him up and locked up the double knockout.

He's got 90,000 now and a little separation from the growing pack below him on the leaderboard.

The one time he was forced to, his straight beat top two pair to give him an almost 40,000-chip pot.

Pushing up to 60,000 now, Bracken is on top of the Level 6 counts.

Sweet Flop For Bitterman

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Paul Bitterman
Paul Bitterman

Lancaster, NY's Paul Bitterman has emerged as the Level 5 chip leader after one huge hand.

Bitterman held pocket fours on a {4-}{7-}{8-} flop, and after a 3,700-chip bet and one call, he reared back and shipped it in for almost 20,000.

One player called with two jacks, but after the second folded, he whiffed on the ace-king runout. As a result, Bitterman pushed to the top of the counts.
