Lakota Shuts Down

Level 16 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Byron Kaverman opened to 6,000 from the cutoff and Jan Lakota defended his big blind. The flop came {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Lakota check-called a bet of 7,000 from Kaverman.

The turn brought the {j-Diamonds} and Lakota checked again. Kaverman tossed in another bet of 20,000 and Lakota check-raised to 62,000. Kaverman called and the {a-Spades} completed the board.

Lakota tanked for two minutes before finally knuckling the table. Kaverman slid out a bet of 45,000 and Lakota sent his cards to the muck, pleading for Kaverman to show a bluff.

Bonomo vs Leng Heads-Up

Level 16 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Justin Bonomo is heads-up at his table after eliminating Nicholas Riali, and what a mouthwatering clash it'll be.

Bonomo held {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} against the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} of Riali. It wasn't clear exactly when the money went in but the board read {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts} which was good enough to give Bonomo a set.

Bonomo, the all-time money list leader in tournament poker, faces off against Phil Ivey's conqueror heads-up from Round 1, Ryan Leng, for a place at the shootout final table.

Level 16 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Picking up the action on the turn with the board reading {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Benjamin Chalot was first to act from the small blind. Chalot bet 40,000 into a pot of around 60,000 and Weiyi Zhang called on the button.

The {3-Hearts} paired the board on the river and Chalot announced all in. Zhang had around 75,000 still in front of him and he dipped into the tank for around three minutes. Zhang eventually sent his cards to the muck and Chalot collected the pot.

Fast Start for Bonomo

Level 16 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Justin Bonomo took down one of the first hands of the day when he called down Nicholas Riali with middle pair. He then received a walk in the big blind and showed {a-}{a-}. Following that, Mateusz Rypulak opened on the button and Bonomo three-bet shoved all in from the small blind. Rypulak quickly called and the cards were on their backs.

Justin Bonomo: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Mateusz Rypulak: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Although it was a coin flip preflop, Bonomo quickly dashed any hopes that Rypulak had of winning this hand. The flop came {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Bonomo made quad tens to leave Rypulak drawing dead. The {k-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} runout did not matter and Rypulak was the first player to collect a min-cash.
