Jonald Garcia Gets King Again

Level 17: 3,000 / 6,000 ante: 6,000

Jonald Garcia

After his cowboys failed, Jonald Garcia got kings again and this time it proved its might. Following a raise by Masakazu Miyamoto that was called by short stacked Waki Yasuhiro with less behind, Garcia three-bet enough to get Miyamoto to fold. Garcia wins the runout, to bring the field down to 20 players. It is bubble time.
