Two for Kaufmann; Boatman Bluff-Catches
David Kaufmann raised to 500,000 on the button with 7♠5♠ and Barny Boatman defended the big blind with A♥2♥. Boatman picked up a flush draw on the Q♥10♥10♠ flop and check-called with the best hand for 350,000. The 3♠ turn gave Kaufmann a flush draw, and he raised to 2,200,000 after Boatman had led out for 500,000. Boatman conceded the pot.
Aleksejs Ponakovs made it 600,000 from the button with A♣8♥, and Kaufmann called in the big blind with A♦7♠. Kaufmann picked up another flush draw on the Q♦9♦5♦ flop, which came in on the 10♦ turn after both players initially checked. Kaufmann checked for a second time, and Ponakovs followed suit. The 7♣ river left Ponakovs with ace-high, which he folded after Kaufmann fired out 1,575,000.
It was now Boatman's turn to raise from the button, and he opened to 500,000 with K♦2♦. Ponakovs called from the big blind with 7♥5♠. Action checked through to the river for the final board to read J♥10♥2♣8♠3♥. Ponakovs, with seven-high, bet 1,000,000 and Boatman called with his pair of deuces to take in the pot.
