Congratulations to "Core4", Winner of the $25,000 Guaranteed 6-Max Event!
The Friday Night event of this latest partypoker US Network Online Series saw a total of 154 players do battle at short handed tables all night long. In the end, it was "Core4" who would emerge victorious over the rest of the field, taking home a nice payday of $8,008.
The final 18 players finished in the money tonight, and amongst those who cashed, but didn��t make the final table, were Mike ��MistaMenza�� Menzer (17th), Ryan ��simlSgg�� Hagerty (14th), Jon ��Jetsfan411�� Borenstein (10th), and Stanton "Stonniepokes" Tentnowski (8th). For Hagerty, he just missed out on his third straight final table this series, after winning the last two events over the last two days.
Here is how the final table stacked up when play began. Multiple short stack shoves went uncalled until ��chen718�� busted in sixth place, when his King-Ten fell to the Ace-Five of ��ndirish50.��
Next to bust was the lone known pro at the final table, Michael ��IIIIIIIIIIIII�� Haberman. He busted out after calling a big bet on the turn and river of this hand, with the final bet being for all of his stack. His second pair was no good though, and he would bust out in fifth.
The next player to hit the rail was ��yolegacy.�� He was down to just a few big blinds when he got his stack in the middle with 
, but he was miles behind the 
of Jason ��RiverMan�� Lawhun. Another ten came on the flop, and though he turned a flush draw on the turn, ��yolegacy�� didn��t catch any help on the river.
Three handed play lasted just a few hands before Lawhun busted ��ndirish50�� in third. Lawhun held a baby pair, while ��ndirish50�� showed Ace-Queen, but the board ran down ten high, securing the victory for Lawhun.
When heads up play started, Lawhun and ��Core4�� were virtually even in chips, but ��Core4�� would take a big lead early, and then end the tournament in style. He would slow play pocket aces until he got his opponent to shove the turn drawing to just four outs, and the aces would hold, giving him the crown.
For his efforts, ��Core4�� will take home $8,008. Congratulations to him on his big victory, and don��t forget that this series rolls on with two more big events this weekend. First, a $215 buy-in $25,000 Guaranteed Event starts at 8 PM ET time tomorrow, and the series wraps up with the massive $100,000 Guaranteed 8-Max Main Event on Sunday afternoon.
