Jim Collins’ KK was best when Leo Govoni called his shove!

Juan Dacosta’s KK> John Gordon’s AK

Andra Zachow confidently started with a bet of 2k at 400/800. Darryl Woodruff, who was in the big blind, and Juan DaCosta, who had initially just called, decided to join the action. As the flop came out with 553, Darryl showed his confidence by placing a bet, and Juan decided to stick around by calling. However, Andra, feeling a bit uncertain about the situation, decided to fold and step back. The turn revealed a 3, and both Darryl and Juan remained in the game. Finally, the river card unveiled a 9. With this opportunity, Darryl made another bet, and Juan, feeling curious, decided to call. To everyone’s surprise, Darryl confidently revealed his hand, showing a 3 for a full house. Unfortunately, Juan couldn’t match that strength and decided to muck his hand, leaving Darryl victorious in that round.

In Andra’s A4ss bested Darryl’s A8cc, leading to the knockout!

Mark Winchell>Dan Johnson for the knockout
