Jordan Banfield Wins Second Event at FSS
Jordan Banfield is have a great week so far here at the Fall Super Stack after taking down his second event of the series. He picked up his first win on Friday night in the 6-Max PKO and now he’s just bagged the win in Event #1: Deepstack.
When it got heads up, he and runner-up Andy Truong decided to make an even chop of the money with Banfield taking the win for the bigger stack. He also chopped for the win in Event #3 on Friday, and between the two games, he’s now pocketed close to $22k from the series so far.
This is his third live win including Friday and will mark his second biggest live score. His first win and biggest score also came here at Deerfoot in the 2021 Fall Super Stack when he won this very event, the $340 Deepstack.

Truong Doubles Again
Level: 28 (50000/100000/100000) Entries: 3/370 Prizes: $105,450 Andy Truong raised to 225k, then shoved after Jordan Banfield raised to 550k. Banfield called but his nines were behind the kings of Truong. The kings held for a double on his short stack of 800k, but Banfield still looks to be the leader with about 3.4 million in front of him.
-
Truong Doubles
Level: 28 (50000/100000/100000) Entries: 3/370 Prizes: $105,450 Andy Truong was the short stack after doubling up both other players, and he shoved his button with 1.04 million. Jordan Banfield called it off quickly and was in good shape with ace-nine of spades against ten-nine of diamonds.
Truong smashed the 5♥7♦8♦ flop for the open-ended straight flush draw, then turned the flush on the 4♦ turn. The river was a meaningless queen and Truong doubled back into it. All three players are now pretty close in stacks with the average stack right now about 25 bigs.

Kananda Flops it to Double
Level: 27 (40000/80000/80000) Entries: 3/370 Prizes: $105,450 Patricia Kananda shoved the button for 1.065 million and after getting a count, Andy Truong called from the small blind. He had pocket sixes and was racing against the ace-jack for Kananda. She spiked her jack on the flop and held to win the race and get the double.

It started out as a race between ace-jack of hearts for Banfield and pocket fours for Truong, but Banfield smashed the all-heart flop for the nut flush, leaving Truong drawing very thin to a boat. The turn and river didn’t deliver for Truong and Banfield got a double on 1.285 million.

Paul Sokoloff They are down to the final three now after Paul Sokoloff lost a race for his life to Andy Truong. Truong raised to 130k from the button before Sokoloff shoved the small blind.
Truong asked for a count, saying he was “probably calling” but wanted to be sure. Sokoloff had just under 1.6 million and Truong called it down with more.
Truong was on ace-queen, racing against the pocket jacks of Sokoloff. The ace came on the turn and Sokoloff couldn’t find a jack to help out.

After a few seconds of thought, Truong’s cards found the muck and the pot went to Banfield.

Level: 24 (20000/40000/40000) Entries: 5/370 Prizes: $105,450 
Mike Malm There are just five players left in Event #1 now after Mike Malm hit the rail in 6th place tonight. I missed the action, but Malm chopped the Mystery Bounty last night, so he’s having a pretty good run so far early in this series.

Bron Johnson Out in 7th Place for $4,745
Level: 24 (20000/40000/40000) Entries: 6/370 Prizes: $105,450 
Bron Johnson They are down to 6 remaining on the FT of Event #1 after Born Johnson took seventh place tonight. I missed the action while I was updating some details on the other two tournaments running right now.
Johnson is one of about half a dozen players in from the Okanagan. They run a ~50-person league there called the SSOP. Kurt Lillemo is another member of the league here at Deerfoot and he picked up 3rd place in the 6-Max PKO the other night, so they’ve been running well so far this series.

Banfield Doubles
Level: 24 (20000/40000/40000) Entries: 7/370 Prizes: $105,450 Jordan Banfield shoved under the gun for 430k and Andy Truong reshoved from the cutoff with the big stack. Mike Malm was on the big blind and tanked for a bit, saying he had an “ace and a picture. Bad picture though.” He eventually mucked ace-jack face-up and it was a race between the ace-king of clubs and the pocket sevens for Banfield.
The paired board ran out queen high, missing both players and leaving the sevens in the lead for the win.
