"Queens," said Richey, predicting what "ElkY" would turn over after the betting on seventh and the Frenchman indeed then turned over rolled up Queens before showing the {3-Clubs} for a rivered full house. His opponent sighed and mucked

Bounty on Bach

We recently ventured over to David Bach’s table only to see him quite shortstacked. Chris Amaral then pointed out that himself, Cyndy Violette, Tom Dwan and Michael Mizrachi had a $100 bounty bet going on for whoever eliminated Bach. We asked Phil Laak how come he wasn’t a part of the bet and Amaral said “we offered him 105 to 100 but he wouldn’t take it” and Laak said “I would do it for 120”.

Anyways a few hands later, the following hand occurred where Mizrachi would have a chance to get the bounties.

Bach: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} / {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Mizrachi: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} / {6-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} / {8-Spades}
Sabic: {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{A-Clubs} / {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Bach brought in and Mizrachi completed. Sebastien Sabic then raised and Bach moved all in. Mizrachi raised and Sabic just called. On fourth, Sabic check-called Mizrachi’s bet and on fifth check-raised him. Mizrachi came back with a re-raise which Sabic called. On sixth Sabic bet, Mizrachi raised, Sabic three-bet and Mizrachi called. Seventh was a little tamer with a Sabic bet and a Mizrachi call. Bach showed two pair which was beaten by Mizrachi’s rolled up 6s but Sabic had them both beat with a full house. While the hand eliminated Bach, unfortunately no one was able to capitalize on the bounty.
