Event 27 and 28 winners

News / nono / 17 June 2008 / Leave a comment

Congratulations to Vitaly Lunkin and Phil Galfond on their first bracelet wins in events 27 and 28 respectively.

Lunkin took down the NLHE when, with both players on a fairly even stack, he checked TPTK on the flop and got an all in raise when Brett Kimes made 2nd pair on the turn.

And, what must have been a sickener for 2nd place finisher, Adam Hourani, in the PLO he got all his chips in with top pair and wrap around nut broadway straight to be called by a very weak top pair by Phil Galfond.

A 6 on the turn made Galfond two pair and with no further help Galfond took it down.
