Dorrance-Bowman Forces Fold from Tollefsen

Henrik Tollefsen opened with a raise from the cutoff, and Dustin Dorrance-Bowman called from the big blind.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Dorrance-Bowman checked, Tollefsen continued with a bet of 72,000, and Dorrance-Bowman called.

The turn then brought the {10-Clubs}. Dorrance-Bowman sat motionless for about a minute, then brought his hand down with a chopping motion to indicate he was checking. Tollefsen also took some time before pushing out another bet -- this time of 72,000. Dorrance-Bowman sat quietly for another minute, then tossed out a check-raise to 172,000, at which Tollefsen instantly folded.

Dorrance-Bowman is up around 1.5 million now, while Tollefson slips to 810,000.

Tollefsen is now up to 900,000 chips and Dorrance-Bowman slipped to 1,290,000.

Peters Pushes Ahead

David Peters
David Peters

Matthew Lupton raised to 65,000 from the cutoff, and got one caller in David Peters. Peters has pushed out in front here with 11 players left, and has remained aggressive throughout this most recent stretch of play at his six-handed table.

The flop came {2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Peters checked, and Lupton bet 95,000. Peters made the call. The turn was the {4-Hearts}. Peters checked again, and this time Lupton bet 270,000. Peters took a moment to think about it, then called again.

The river brought the {9-Diamonds} and a couple of checks from the players. Peters tabled {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for top pair, which was good enough as Lupton mucked.

Peters is still stacking, but looks to but up around the 1.6 million mark, while Lupton is hovering a little over 1 million.

Tollefson Takes a Bunch Off Dorrance-Bowman

As that elimination was occurring over on Table 267, a big hand was developing on Table 262 between Henrik Tollefson and Dustin Dorrance-Bowman. Indeed, it appeared we might have reached our final nine before ever reseating at a single ten-handed table!

The hand began with Johnny Kitchens opening for 85,000, then Dorrance-Bowman called from the cutoff. It folded to Tollefson who announced he was all in for approximately 820,000 total. Kitchens got out, and Dorrance-Bowman took about five minutes to make his decision while players from the other table, waiting to move over, looked on.

Finally Dorrance-Bowman called, showing {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}. Tollefson showed {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The board came {4-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, and Tollefson scores a huge more-than-double-up as we move to the single ten-handed table.
