Well that was fun! Action started when Ian Monahoyios open shoved from early position. Stuart Linnen, playing a stack of 129,000 also shoved. The action was then on Michele Pengue who joined the party by throwing in his bounty chip. Roberto Parent looked at the action and announced “OK, I am also all in”.
Monahoyios:
Linnen:
Pengue:
Parent:
Parent was in the lead with his pocket kings and Pengue had the big slick, both premium hands. But it was Linnen who flopped gold when the dealer fanned out , making him a boat! With all the kings already out on the table, Parent was drawing dead but Pengue still had outs if he could only hit runner-runner five-five or ace-ace. The turn and river sealed the deal for Linnen who picked up his first two bounty chips of the tournament, along with a huge pile of chips to add to his stack. Pengue started the hand with more than 300,000 so he still has a higher than average stack.
