Boyker Flops Set, Eliminates Two

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The player under the gun opened for 2,500 and was called by a player in middle position before David Depew three-bet jammed for 6,600. Action folded to Russell Boyker who four-bet to 13,000 on the button, the small blind player called while the other two players folded.

The small blind player moved all in after a {5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop and Boyker snap-called.

Russell Boyker: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Small Blind Player: {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}
David Depew: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Boyker held a commanding lead with a set of tens but Depew was still live with an open-ended staright draw.

The turn came the {9-Clubs} and Depew received help with the wrong card as the river fell the {8-Spades} and Bokyer eliminated both his opponents.

The World Series of Poker Circuit Choctaw Durant $1,700 Main Event is just one of a dozen gold ring events at the stop.

For more than a week, a slew of side events has been playing out including Event #10: $400 NLH 8-Handed One-Day, a tournament that drew 216 entries and created a $17,132 prize pool.

The last player standing was 36-year-old Clarence Prevost, who claimed a $17,132 top prize and his first WSOPC gold ring.

“I’m happy, I feel so blessed,” he said after the win. “I really really wanted to win one. I really thought I wouldn’t make it this far.”

Prevost came into the final table eighth in chips but hung tough before spinning it up.

“I never gave-up, I felt like it was my time,” he explained. “I picked the right spots and didn’t bluff-off my stack like I liked to do. I just waited my turn. I believed in the cards when they came to me.”

The father of two added: “I have to give a shoutout to my rail and give a specific shoutout to my boy Kurt Haiss, he is the guy I run with and he’s always backed for me. The entire rail was cool.”

Interestingly, Paul Sokoloff, who had finished runner-up in a tournament the night before, had another deep run finishing in third place for $7,483.
