John Racener: XxXx/8?J?A?10?/Xx
Gary Bolden: XxXx/3?7?8?5?/Xx

Gary Bolden was the bring-in and John Racener limped in.

Racener bet on fourth street and Bolden raised. Racener called and Bolden bet again on fifth. Racener called.

Bolden put out another bet on sixth. "This might be it," he said as Racener considered the decision.

"You never catch a bad card," Racener replied.

"I came here early just for you. I'm going to get you to where you want to go. Straight into the six-max. I'm happy it was 10-to-4. I would've been mad if I was chip leader," Bolden added.

Racener eventually called as they went to seventh. "Only if I get something better than I already have. The only way I can bet," Bolden said as he peeled his last card. He then bet.

"Don't stop now, baby," Bolden told Racener who called off his last chips. "Two pair and a low," Bolden said, turning over 6?5?3? for fives and threes. Racener quickly mucked and got up to shake Bolden's hand as he was denied his second bracelet of the summer.
