Miscikowski Takes Some From Wantman

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

David Miscikowski opened to 7,000 in early position and Matthew Wantman three-bet to 23,000 from one seat over. Action folded back to Miscikowski who called.

The dealer spread the {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop and Miscikowski check-called against a 20,000 bet.

Both players checked the {2-Diamonds} turn, and Miscikowski led for 7,500 on the {5-Clubs} river, causing Wantman to lay down his hand.

Koon Left Short; Busts Soon After

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jason Koon
Jason Koon

Jason Koon opened to 6,500 in early position, Aaron Massey called the hijack, the small blind called, and Shan Jing called the big blind.

All four players checked the {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} flop to the {7-Hearts} turn. The small blind checked and Jing jammed for 45,000. Koon called and the other two players folded.

Shan Jing: {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Jason Koon: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}

The {10-Clubs} completed the board to miss Koon's draws and leave him with only a couple of big blinds, while Jing collected the pot.

On the next hand, Koon was in the big blind and got the rest of his short stack in against Jing in the small blind.

Jason Koon: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Shan Jing: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

"My initials," Koon said. "Maybe they're lucky."

The dealer spread the {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop to instantly give Koon Broadway.

"Very lucky," he said.

The {7-Clubs} and {3-Diamonds} completed the board to confirm Koon's short-stacked double and keep his tournament life alive temporarily, although he was unable to further run up his stack and was seen exiting the tournament area shortly after.
