Andrew Bak opened to 8,000 in the cutoff and button Nicholas Newport moved all in (for what looked like sub-100k). The blinds got out of the way and Bak called sharpish, as you do six-handed with Kh Ks. Newport’s Tc Ts found no help in the 9h 5d 7c 6c Jc runout and he went to collect his regular prize money, while Bak picked up another Mystery Bounty (€1,000).
Bak’s stack has crept up to around the 1,000,000 chip mark and is challenging erstwhile chip leader Andrew Hedley for that chip lead of his.
