Showdown
Guinther:
Blackman:
Pesek:
The flop pulled the worst hand (Guinther's) into the lead with top pair. The turn was no change, and he was one card from the double knockout.
River:
That's just what Pesek was looking for, the king on the river giving him top pair and the big pot. After that exchange, Guinther is left with just 5,700 chips. It was essentially a $20,000 river card for him as it robbed him of the double knockout. Pesek, on the other hand, claims the bounty of Scott Blackman, chipping up to 99,000 in the process.
Blackman notched three bounties on Day 1, so he'll take home a total of $44,000 today.
