Boika Wins Two Bounties With Six-Deuce

Matt Warburton

Level 15 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Aliaksei Boika limped in early position and Daoud Majid went all in for just 5,500 chips. Aylar Lie called behind before Alan Goasdoue moved all in for 45,000 chips. Boika made the call and Lie folded. Players flipped their cards.

Daoud Majid: K?4?
Alan Goasdoue: 8?7?
Aliaksei Boika: 6?2?

Majid was as surprised as anyone to see that he had the best hand. "Hold, king, hold!", he said. Goasdoue had attempted to isolate but was called by Boika, who had both players covered.

The board ran out 5?J?3?Q?2?. The river brought Boika a pair of deuces, which was enough for him to win the pot, add to his stack, and claim two bounty tokens.

Majid and Goasdoue were both eliminated from the tournament.
