Potawara Leads; Defending Champ Falls
Level 17
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Nicholas Potwora has vaulted into the chip lead after getting in a massive pot heads up with 2015 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event champ Kurtis Boutelle.
The defending champ raised pocket sevens and after Potwara three-bet the big blind with aces, Boutelle flatted.
Potwara led the with-two-clubs flop and Boutelle made it 110,000 with his open-ender. Potwara ripped it in for around double that and Boutelle called it off for his tournament life.
Aces magically held, Potwara moved on top of the chip counts, and there will be a new Seneca Fall Poker Classic champion crowned this year with last year's on the rail now.
