Kabrhel's Bounty Collected

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Action folded all the way around to the button, who was none other than Martin Kabrhel. "I am all in. Seventeen Million," he announced. In actual fact, it was just 14,000. Franklin Machado on his direct left reshoved, prompting the big blind to get out of the way. "I have casino," said Kabrhel, showing his higher card, "Royale," showing the other.

Martin Kabrhel: K♥Q♣ All in
Franklin Machado: A♥K♦

Machado started celebrating, to which Kabrhel questioned, "Why are you happy? You have three outs after flop." Kabrhel's career in fortune telling was short-lived, as the J♥3♣K♠ flop kept him behind. The 3♠4♦ runout sent him home, as cheers and applause echoed through the Horseshoe Ballroom for their new hero Machado.

"Where's my bounty?" he asked, before letting everyone else know that he was "now the loudest in the room."

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Casey Carroll was all in with a short stack and J♦J♠, up against two over cards that were instantly mucked when neither of them came on the 8♣6♠4♠6♥2♣ runout.

Fellow short stack David Blake in the four seat mentioned he had folded pocket deuces and Caroll replied "not like that.”

The flop came 4♣A♠Q♦ and McSwiney checked to Pecelj, who continued for 7,500. McSwiney quickly let his hand go and Pecelj collected the pot without showing.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

In a pot with 21,500 in the middle on a board of 7♥3♣3♥5♣, Dathan Kuppin bet 13,000 from the small blind and Seun Oluwole called from the big blind.

A 4♦ landed on the river and Kuppin kept up the aggression with a bet of 28,000. Oluwole took just a few seconds before he called.

Kuppin confidently flipped over A♦3♦ for trips, but Oluwole revealed Q♣6♣ for a rivered straight to scoop the pot.

On the same table, Nathanial Hutton is up to around 350,000.
