Mathers Collects Raphael's Bounty

Joseph Berg

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Kevin Mathers raised to 1,500 from early position. Jannel Raphael then went all in from middle position for roughly 11,000, putting himself at risk. The rest of the table folded, and Mathers called.

Jannel Raphael: 10♣10♠ All in
Kevin Mathers: A♣8♦

The 6♣5♣3♣ flop was an interesting one, giving Mathers a draw to the Ace-high flush. The turn 6♦ changed little, but the Q♣ on the river completed Mathers' flush, securing Raphael's bounty.

Players are all more than happy to get the chips in the middle and take a punt in this one to try and build a stack or move onto the next one!

In a preflop raising war, Jonathan Kramer eventually moved all in for 16,900, and Udi Hoffmann asked him:

"Do You Want The Call?"

"Do You Want The Bounty?" was Kramer's reply.

"Yes, I Do Actually," replied Hoffmann as he threw in the call.

Jonathan Kramer: A♠Q♣ All in
Udi Hoffmann: 10♣10♥

An ace was the door card on the A♥9♣7♠ flop, and when no ten came on the J♥ turn nor the 5♣ river, Kramer was pushed the pot for a double up.

Lee Rogers moved all in from middle position for 13,400 and was called from the small blind by Nicholas Guerrieri.

Lee Rogers: 10♥10♣ All in
Nicholas Guerrieri: J♠J♥

A safe runout for Guerrieri on the A♣6♠A♠3♣5♣ board, and he claimed Rogers' bounty and sent him to the rail.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On the 7♥3♣Q♦ flop and the pot already over 6,000, Griff Woodman bet 8,000 from the big blind, and Norman Michalek called from under the gun.

The turn brought the 9♠, and Woodman moved all in for 9,000. Michalek snap called.

Griff Woodman: Q♠K♥ All in
Norman Michalek: A♦Q♣

No king for Woodman when the river came the 10♦, and he was sent to the rail. Michalek collected his bounty.

The action is heating up already as players go for the bounties!

Jorge Arellano raised from late position to 800, only for Jeremie Toledano to three-bet to 2,400 from the button. Arellano called.

The flop came 9♥3♥4♦ and now Arellano checked. Toledano bet out for 7,000 and Arellano called. The turn brought the 9♦, and again Arellano checked. Toledano moved all in for 11,000, which sent Arellano into the tank thinking about collecting the $500 bounty. He eventually called.

Jeremie Toledano: A♠A♣ All in
Jorge Arellano: A♥Q♥

No heart for Arellano when the J♣ came on the river, and Toledano's aces held up. He was pushed the sizeable pot while Arellano was left with a dwindling stack.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

On a flop of 8♣3♥3♦ and the pot already over 7,000, Ewen Trevidy check-called Klaus Ilk's bet of 5,000. The turn brought the 4♥ and again Trevidy check-called Ilk's bet, this time for 6,000.

The river saw the 2♦ fall, and both players checked. Ilk tabled Q♥Q♣ and Trevidy mucked instantly.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

All the money was in the middle and the board read 5♦9♣7♦8♠7♣. Will Hall tabled A♠A♦, only to see Zocarlo Benologa flip over 6♠6♣ for a straight. Benologa was all in for 18,000, which left Hall with a bowl of rice and just 500 chips.

The very next hand, Hall limped under the gun and Zichuan Huang raised to 800, only to see four calls from David Fhima, Daniel Marin, Ryan Riess, and Brian Rovne. Hall also flipped in his last 300.

The flop came 3♠5♦A♠ and Brian Rovne moved all in for 23,000 from the big blind, and all other players folded.

Will Hall: A♦Q♣ All in
Brian Rovne: K♠6♠

Hall was ahead and heading for a quintuple up! Unfortunately, the 8♠ came on the turn and gave Rovne a flush to send Hall packing and gave Rovne a bounty of $500. The irrelevant 2♠ fell on the river.
