Event 1 Flight E: Todd Sims Eliminated by Mark Bedford

2022 Everglades Poker Open
$150 Big Stack No-Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
$100,000 Guaranteed | Structure
Level 12:  1,000/2,000 with a 2,000 ante
Flight E Players Remaining:  50 of 267

Todd Sims raised to 6,000 from early position and Mark Bedford called from the big blind.

The flop was 4hKc9h and Bedford check-called 10,000 from Sims.

The turn was the 6s, Bedford checked, Sims bet 20,000, Bedford check-raised to effectively 75,000-ish, and Sims called all in after a few moments.

Sims:  Qh10h
Bedford:  Ac6h

Bedford was ahead with a pair of sixes, although Sims had plenty of outs with a flush draw, straight draw, and overcards.

The river was the As, safe for Bedford to score the elimination.

Mark Bedford  –  260,000  (130 bb)
Todd Sims  –  Eliminated

Level 10:  600/1,200 with a 1,200 ante
Flight E Players Remaining:  81 of 267

The player under the gun limped in, Matt Bretzfield raised to 2,800 from middle position, and the UTG player called.

The flop was QcAs5d and Bretzfield’s opponent check-called 3,900.

The turn was the 7s and both players checked.

The river was the 4h, the UTG player bet 3,500, and Bretzfield called.

The UTG player showed Ah6s for a pair of aces, but Bretzfield tabled Ad9c for a pair of aces with a better kicker to win the pot.

Matt Bretzfield  –  101,000  (84 bb)
