Defending the Title

[user101598]

Tyler Bonkowski, the player who won this event last year, has recently found his seat in the Orange Section of the Amazon Room. He just won a nice-sized pot where the action was capped four ways preflop, and the board read {9-Diamonds} {j-Clubs} {5-Clubs} . The action checked to him, he bet, and three opponents called, including Ali Eslami.

The {4-Diamonds} turned, and the action checked to Bonkowski again. He bet, and everyone called except for Eslami, who raised. All three players called.

The {9-Spades} completed the board, and all four players checked. A player in the blinds turned over an under pair, and everyone mucked except for Bonkowski, who tabled two red tens.
