Katkuoy Wins Title

Katkuoy takes down @The101Casino North Bay Poker Open title .. but which one?

Tona and Tony were heads-up for the title, the 101 Casino bracelet, the cover of next month's Ante Up Magazine and an entry into the 2015 Ante Up World Championships at Thunder Valley Casino in August.

In a wild and fun heads-up match featuring huge bets, all-in bluffs and more, Tona ends up victorious over his brother, earning the title.

The brothers, though, are going to share the cover photo!

Tona Katkuoy

Sibling Rivalry For The TItle

Tona and Tony Kaykuoy are battling it out, brother-a-brother, for the @The101Casino North Bay Poker Open @AnteUpMagazine Main Event title.

It doesn't get much better than this

Tony

Tona

Aces Cracked

Aaron Reiff just ran his Aces into the queens of Tony Katkuoy on a Qxx flop for a nearly 1 million chip pot, knocking Reiff down to about 5bb, leaving us very close to a sibling rivalry heads up match between the Katkuoy's.

Aaron doubles through Tony on the very next hand, however, and it back up to 150,000.

Tona Katkuoy eliminates Aaron on the very next hand, Aaron taking 3rd place.

3-Handed Chipcounts

Tona Katkuoy, with 1 million in chips, almost has his brother Tony and Aaron Reiff covered as we are 3-handed for the North Bay Poker open title.

Tona has 1 million, Aaron 600,000 and Tony has 500,000

Joe Mussat - 4th Place

Joe Mussat runs his two pair from the big blind in to the rivered trip queens of overwhelming chipleader Tona Katkuoy and is eliminated in 4th place, earning $4,725.

Jason Patterson - 5th Place

James Patterson is all in with A3 against the AK of Aaron Reiff. An Axx board gives Patterson only 3 outs or running straight cards.

No 3 appears, no wheel draw is filled, and Patterson is eliminated in 5th place, earning $3,544.
