Pescatori Wins Two in a Row

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Max Pescatori won two consecutive hands, beating Justin Bonomo in the former and Ted Forrest in the latter.

In the first hand, action folded to Pescatori who matched Bonomo's bring-in. Pescatori then bet on fourth and fifth, with his board reading three low cards. Bonomo called on both streets, and sixth went check-check. Pescatori placed another bet on the river, and Bonomo called.

Justin Bonomo: {X-}{X-} / {3-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} / {X-}
Max Pescatori: {X-}{X-} / {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} / {X-}

Pescatori rolled over {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} for nines up, and Bonomo mucked.

The second hand saw Ted Forrest complete and Pescatori was the only player who called. Pescatori then bet every street including the river. Forrest called on fourth and fifth, then paused on sixth but eventually called again. However, Forrest laid down on the river.

Ted Forrest: {X-}{X-} / {5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} / {X-} (folded on seventh street)
Max Pescatori: {X-}{X-} / {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Spades} / {X-}

Pescatori vaulted to 465,000 with the aforementioned two scoops and climbs among the top stacks.
