Garrett Busts Bjerga; Johnson Doubles

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Aaron Johnson
Aaron Johnson

Ervin Bjerga, who is trying to go back-to-back as Mid-States Poker Tour champ after taking down MSPT Running Aces a couple of weeks ago, busted out with {k-}{q-} on a king-high board against fellow Running Aces final tablist Ernest Garrett, who flopped a set of jacks.

At another table, Aaron Johnson doubled up with a set of aces that he binked on the turn against an opponent who had flopped a set of fives. We didn't see when the money went in.

Terry Ring
Terry Ring

On an {a-}{j-}{q-} flop, Terry Ring got his last 10,000 or so in holding {a-}{3-} for top pair. Unfortunately for the Iowan, Petronack had flopped bottom two with {q-}{j-}, and his hand held for the elimination. Petronack's hot start has him among the leaders early on.

Bohn Doubles Up

Blake Bohn
Blake Bohn

Blake Bohn got his last 13,525 in preflop with {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} against {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}. Kings have been a cursed hand lately according to Bohn's twitter feed, as he's repeatedly dropped monster pots in various tournaments, and things looked no different this time as {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts} flopped. The {3-Hearts} turn helped Bohn with a four-flush, and the {k-Clubs} river was one of the cards he needed to take the pot.

"That would have been 1-for-11," Bohn said of his recent skid with cowboys.

Kroon's Shove Wins

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Mark ""P0ker H0" Kroon
Mark ""P0ker H0" Kroon

Mark Kroon called a raise of 4,500 from the button, and his opponent in middle position continuation-bet 7,500 on a {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop. Kroon called, and a {3-Hearts} hit. The middle player checked, and Kroon bet 7,525. His opponent tossed in 3,525, thinking that was the bet, and lamented that he should have asked before calling the proper amount. He checked the {k-Clubs} river, and Kroon shoved. His opponent asked for a count, and it looked to be about 30,000, roughly pot-sized. The player mucked after a couple of minutes.

"Good laydown," Kroon said. "I killed that flop."
