Evan Bethyo Eliminated in 2nd Place ($104,789)
Level 31
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Evan Bethyo limped in on the button, and Greg Raymer checked his option in the big blind.
The flop was checked by Raymer, and Bethyo bet 300,000. Raymer called.
Raymer checked again on the turn, and Bethyo bet 400,000. Raymer check-raised all in, and Bethyo called off his last 2.1 million.
Evan Bethyo:
Greg Raymer:
Bethyo's pair of queens had been turned by Raymer's two pair, and Bethyo needed an ace, queen or deuce to keep the heads-up match going. The river was no help for Bethyo, and he still walks away with a six-figure payday, while Raymer earns his record fifth HPT Main Event title.
Stay tuned for a full recap of the day's action.
