Barry Pevner won his first SHRPO trophy yesterday afternoon, defeating Loni Harwood heads-up to claim the title for Event 4. During his postgame interviews, Pevner relayed a story about losing a heads-up battle against Loni’s father, Joel, back in 1999. Yesterday’s revenge was sweet for Pevner, but the Harwood family has struck back today.

There was significant multi-way preflop action for this hand, apparently beginning with a Pevner raise under the gun. Several players called before Joel Harwood squeezed all in for a bit less than 30,000 from the big blind. Pevner called all in for 10,525, and the rest of the table folded out of the way.

Pevner:
Harwood:

The board ran out , and Harwood’s ace-high earned him the pot and the knockout. Pevner was eliminated, now down 2-1 in battles against the family Harwood.

Joel Harwood – 45,000 (90 bb)
Barry Pevner – Eliminated
