Boatman Remains Ahead
Barny Boatman opened to 800,000 from the button with A♥2♦ and folded out David Kaufmann and Aleksejs Ponakovs in the blinds.
Kaufmann folded on the button before Ponakovs limped in from the small blind with K♣4♣. Boatman checked his option with J♣9♠. Ponakovs, with a pair of kings, continued for 400,000 on the A♥K♠Q♦ flop before Boatman raised to 1,000,000 with his gutshot. Ponakovs called. The 4♥ turn improved Ponakovs to two pair and action checked through to the 7♦ river. Ponakovs fired out 2,500,000, and Boatman released his jack-high after some posturing.
On the final hand before the break, Boatman accidentally raised out of turn to 1,200,000 from the small blind with 5♣2♣. Ponakovs looked down at 7♣7♠ and limped in from the button, meaning Boatman's raise stood. Ponakovs called and then folded the best hand after facing a bet of 1,300,000 on the A♣J♥5♦ flop.
