HomeChip leader Thong Botho faced off with the shortest stack Terry Gonzaga. It began with Gonzaga raising to 23k from the utg seat and Botho calling. At the flop of K♠ A♥ 8♥, Gonzaga led for 34k and Botho called. On the turn of J♦ both players slowed to a check and the dealer opened up the last card, Q♠. Gonzaga took first action and bet 48k. After some thought, Botho called. Gonzaga had A♠ 3♠ for top pair but not good enough against Botho’s K♦ Q♥ two pairs.
