Level 40 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

(Blinds 5,000/10,000)

Mark McGovern raised to 25,000 and Justin Bonomo called. On the {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop both players checked and Bonomo bet the {4-Diamonds} turn for 15,000, McGovern called. After the {5-Clubs} river, Bonomo bet 10,000 and McGovern called, but mucked when he was shown an ace-deuce by Bonomo.

Prior to that, McGovern had jumped into the lead only for Bonomo to go ahead once more just before the blinds moved up.

Jason McConnon extended his lead by a bit after winning another pot against Kahle Burns.

Burns opened with a raise to 20,000 and McConnon added another 10,000 to his big blind to make the call.

As the dealer spread out the {3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{K-Spades}, McConnon check-called a bet of 13,000 to see the {7-Spades} turn. On the turn McConnon check-called again. This time the bet was 42,000.

On the {J-Spades} river, McConnon check-called a final bet of 85,000 and tabled {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} after seeing Burns showed {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.

Burns now has only 21 big blinds left.

No Value for Burns

Level 39 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Kahle Burns won a nice pot, but he didn't manage to get value from his full house.

Jason McConnon limped his button and Burns raised to 35,000. McConnon made the call.

The dealer spread out the {9-Spades}{J-Hearts}{Q-Spades} flop, and Burns bet 25,000. McConnon called again, but both players checked it down on the {Q-Diamonds} turn and {Q-Clubs} river.

Burns showed {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} for a full house, but his opponent didn't get out of line. Burns slowly wins some chips.
