Kevin Scarola (West Palm Beach, FL) 2nd Place - $15,840 |
Kevin Scarola (West Palm Beach, FL) started off the heads-up match with a bang, doubling up on the very first hand. Even with that good fortune, he'd be starting at an eight-to-one chip deficit. He'd be all-in and at risk on the fifth hand of heads up play, holding A♠ 7
♥ against Bodden's Q♣ 10♠. The flop would be of interest to both players (10
♥ 6
♥ 9
♥), as Bodden flopped top pair, and Scarola a gut-shot straight flush draw (and one over). The turn and river would bring off-suit jacks, and Kevin would be eliminated in second place ($15,840).
This effort is a career highlight for Scarola, who came into the day with $2,150 in live tournament earnings.
