Bagonirix vs KRE8R part IV. Its almost like a Rocky sequel but this isn't fiction. Four out of five times now the two finalist are Bagonirix and KRE8R with the same results.

It didn't look good for our current champ early in the game when his were cracked by sociotymax's when he hit two pair. Bagonirix was down 600 chips after the hand and was able to double back through when he put his up against IIAv8tionII's .
somewhere after that it appears that Bagonirix was able to take a good portion of GonnaBoostYa's stack...the hand history for this hand wasn't in the list.

Bagonirix extended his lead when he river flushed against societymax and GonnaBoostYa. GonnaBoostYa had his stack in the pot and showed middle pair thus making him the first elimination.

LordRahl86 wasn't far behind on the elimination list when he pushed his stack in on only to be called by societymax's . Neither player improved giving societymax the hand and the chip lead.

KRE8R was able to gain the chip lead over society max with this hand-
