Froste Triples Through Bounty Dynamic (D2)

Benjamin Harris and Trevor Doughty are battling over bounty chips and Juan Froste profited from it.

Harris has six bounty chips and Doughty has seven. If either of them gets to the final table with the most bounty chips, they receive the bounty prize of $15,600. It's an interesting game within a game that is developing.

Juan Froste doesn't have extra bounty chips but he did get a triple up.

On blinds of 10,000/20,000/20,000, Froste went all-in for 175,000 over Doughty's early position open. Harris and Doughty have extra incentive to win Froste's bounty and prevent the other from doing so. They both called.

With 575,000 in the middle and a dry side pot, the flop came 9♦7♥6♣. Action checked through.

The board paired itself with the 9♣ on the turn. Doughty led out for 125,000 and Harris called.

The 6♠ completed the board on the river. Doughty checked and Harris checked behind. Doughty tabled T♠T♣ which took down the side pot against Harris' 8♠8♣.

Froste's A♥A♣ was good for everything in the middle. The entire table pointed out that it was a dream spot for him. Harris and Doughty could've called much wider because of their bounty incentives, but everyone had a hand. Froste had the best one.

32 players remain. There will be a redraw at 27 players.
