"The Ace Boom" Claims a Bounty

Chad Holloway
Chad Holloway

Level 5 (200/400/50)

After losing a big pot, "Chaitanyaa" was left with just 12 in his stack, which meant they were automatically all in from the ante.

Action then folded around to "The Ace Boom", who called from the small blind, and Zach "KennytheRipper" Gruneberg checked his option to bring about a {2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop.

"The Ace Boom" bet 531 and then called when Gruneberg raised to 2,000. On the {j-Hearts} turn, "The Ace Boom" checked and Gruneberg bet 4,475. "The Ace Boom" woke up with a min-check-raise to 8,950 and Gruneberg called to see the {a-Spades} river.

"The Ace Boom" moved all in and Gruneberg folded. "The Ace Boom" tabled the {2-Clubs}{2-Spades} for a full house and it was good as "Chaitanyaa" showed the {9-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}. Ship the bounty to "The Ace Boom".

Early One for Gruneberg

Level 3 (125/250/30)

Action folded to Zach "KennytheRipper" Gruneberg in the small blind and he limped. Chris "petcheetah101" Bilinsky was in the big and checked his option to see a flop of {6-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}.

Gruneberg bet 500, Bilinsky called, and the {8-Clubs} appeared on the turn. Gruneberg upped his bet to 750 but he couldn't shake Bilinsky, who called to see the {q-Hearts} turn.

Gruneberg slowed down with a check and Bilinsky checked behind. The former tabled the {8-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and it was good enough to win the 3,180 pot.

Our coverage of the PokerStars Pennsylvania Spring Championship of Online Poker (PASCOOP) 2021 continues tonight with the $200 buy-in ($93 from each buy-in will be added to the bounty prize pool) Event #24-H: $200 NLHE (6-Max, PKO) $25K GTD, which will get underway at 20:00 ET.

Tonight's tournament starts players with 25,000 in tournament chips, and blinds start at 80/160 with a 20 ante. Levels are 12 minutes in length. A five-minute break will occur at :55 on the hour, every hour. Players may re-enter this tournament up to three times through the late registration period, which will last 2 hours and 50 minutes.

A progressive bounty of at least $46.50 will be awarded for each player eliminated.

The 2021 PASCOOP has been a big success thus far. Through 23 events (69 tournaments), 28,945 entrants have competed and $1,340,611 in prize money awarded. In addition, there have been eight players who've captured two titles including "ActuallLy", "CancelChristmas", "KAP1316", "ChrundleTheGr8", "thewhitesmith", "ThisRealLife?", "jbrink22", and "RealizeRealLies". Perhaps one of those players will become the first three-time winner tonight, but only time will tell.

PokerNews live updates will begin at the start of the tournament, so be sure to join us this evening.
