Ladies Favor the Bold

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Table #154 was in uproar after Kevin O'Donnel, who was holding Q?Q? rivered the Q? on a board that read 7?3?6?A? against the A?K? of one opponent and the A?10? of his other opponent. This left the player with big slick only 40,000 in chips and no bounties were awarded.

The Next Hand:

Under the gun opened and when it folded to the button, they went all in. The small blind was the short-stacked player from the previous hand and he put his chips in the middle. Brian Fay, in the big blind, went all in for much more and the initial raiser called.

Button: A?J? All in
Small Blind: 9?10? All in
Big Blind Q?Q?
Under the Gun: A?K?

The board ran out 7?9?J?Q?9?, rewarding Fay a massive pot and two bounties.
