Koray Aldemir and Justin Bonomo were heads-up in a pot with around 700,000 in the middle going to the flop. The dealer fanned the flop of K♣6♠4♣ and Bonomo checked from the big blind. Aldemir tossed in a bet of 290,000 in middle position and Bonomo called.
The turn was the 7♥ and Bonomo checked again. Aldemir announced a bet of 750,000 this time and Bonomo used two time banks before moving all in for around 2,240,000. Aldemir shrugged as he dropped in the call and the cards were tabled.
Justin Bonomo: 5♠4♠
Koray Aldemir: K♥Q♥
Aldemir was ahead with his pair of kings but Bonomo had outs with a pair and a straight draw. The A♠ hit the river and Aldemir's hand held up to eliminate Bonomo in the largest pot of the tournament thus far.

James Chen raised to 60,000 from early position and was three-bet to 165,000 by [Removed:564] in the big blind. Chen responded with a four-bet to 425,000 and [Removed:565] moved all in, with Chen making the quick call.
[Removed:564]: A♦A♥
James Chen: A♣K♥
The monotone flop of 10♣8♣J♣ put [Removed:565] in the danger zone as Chen could improve to the winner with any club or queen and would get there on the runout of 6♠4♣, making an ace-high flush and sending [Removed:565] home early.

Even though Jason Koon bagged Day 1 of Event #40: $250,000 Super High Roller at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), he will not be joining the other High Rollers for Day 2. The high-stakes star had his stack pulled from the largest buy-in event of the summer after he received word that his wife was in labor with their second child just in time for Father's Day.
Koon, who bagged a stack of 1,740,000 — a little more than the starting stack of 1,500,000 — will be fully refunded for his $250,000 entry, according to WSOP officials.
"Prior to the end of registration in event 40 with more than a starting stack, entrant Jason Koon requested a void and refund so as to accompany his wife to the hospital who had gone into labor," WSOP told PokerNews. "Request was granted. Issuing a refund before the end of registration is clearly within the discretion of tournament officials and common practice at WSOP. We wish Jason Koon and all our WSOP dads a happy Father's Day."
Nível: 9
Blinds: 15,000/30,000
Ante: 30,000
The cards are in the air on Day 2 of the Super High Roller at 15,000/30,000.
