• Level 13: 1,200-2,400, 300 ante
We picked up the hand with about 32,000 in the pot already, and the board showed
with four cards out. Justin Bonomo was heads-up in position, and he bet 12,600, drawing a check-call from his opponent. The
river paired the bottom card on board, and the out-of-position player now led out into the pot with 21,100 of his own chips. Bonomo looked him up, and the bettor could only show
. Ace-high was no good against Bonomo's
, and that pot pushes him up to 295,000 as he grinds deeper into this Main Event.

Robert Varkonyi - Won't Bluff "Him"
When we reached the table, the flop had already fallen 

. Marvin Rettenmaier led for 6,400, Robert Varkonyi raised to 18,800, and Rettenmaier called.
The turn was the
, and Rettenmaier checked to Varkonyi who moved all in for about 80,000. Rettenmaier tanked for quite some time.
"I'd take a split right now," Rettenmaier joked before finally folding.
"Good fold," Varkonyi complimented. "I had one of the full houses."
"No you did not," Rettenmaier protested.
"Yeah I did," Varkonyi responded. He then turned to a neighbor, saying, "I'm not gunna bluff him."

With bellies full and thirsts quenched, it was always going to be a slow start after the long break, but Joseph Cheong has just given up a small pot in one of the first hands we've seen.
The action folded around to Cheong who raised to 5,500 from middle position before the flop; his neighbor in the one seat called and the others got out of the way before the dealer spread the flop of 

.
Cheong fired out 7,300 and the other player called, but then both players checked down both the turn of the
and the river
.
"King high," Cheong said, but not showing. "I got an ace," the opponent replied, tabling 
. Cheong mucked his hand.

Action folded to Kevin Howe in the cutoff seat on the first hand back from the dinner break. He raised to 5,700. Two seats over, the player in the small blind paused and reached for chips -- he wasn't calling either. The small blind three-bet to 13,300. Then action fell on Garry "Beast Mode" Gates in the big blind. He looked at his cards and then paused for about 45 seconds. Gates then reached for chips and put in a reraise, four-betting to 26,500.
Play was back to Howe and he tanked for a little bit, but eventually slid his hand into the muck. The small blind took a few moments and then he, too, folded. Gates won the pot and added a little over 20,000 to his stack.
