PockerStars

The second PockerStars heat saw four tables in action. Coming out with victories in the second heat were Joe Cassidy, Ashton Griffin, Peter Eastgate and Brett Richey. Cassidy earned himself four bounties, good for $20,000, after he steamrolled his way to PockerStars victory. When he got down to heads-up play with Justin Bonomo, the two battled for a while before getting it all-in on a coinflip. Cassidy had luck on his side and won the flip to beat Bonomo. On one of the other PockerStars tables, Bonomo’s good friend Isaac Haxton battled Peter Eastgate. Eastgate was out-flopped in the most important hand of the match when Haxton flopped the nut straight but managed to go runner-runner for the higher straight to double up and take the PockerStars chip lead. Then Eastgate got it all-in with two pair, which held up as Haxton could only muster one pair. Eastgate represents the only member of Team PockerStars Pro to reach the final table.
