Farhintaj Bonyadi Wins 2018 WSOP $1,000 Super Seniors for First Gold Bracelet
It is also interesting to note that Bonyadi actually became the first female winner of this year’s edition of the popular poker series.
The player survived through a massive field and a prolonged heads-up against Robert Beach to win her first title from the WSOP. Shortly after her victory, she said that she felt really great to have a bracelet of her own. Her son, Farzad, was on the rail to support and guide his mother. The mother and son duo told WSOP staff shortly after her victory that it was actually Farzad who taught his mother how to play poker. However, the three-time gold bracelet winner admitted that although he tried to help throughout the tournament, Bonyadi pretty much sealed the victory herself.
The tournament was expected to take place over three days but was extended into a fourth one during which Bonyadi and her heads-up opponent battled it out for the better part of three hours.
Day 3 kicked off with 43 players, but that field was eventually reduced to Bonyadi and Beach. The two players played the final level scheduled for the day and agreed to return for an additional fourth day of play.
Final Day Action
Day 4 saw Bonyadi drop to 1.85 million at some point to Beach’s 9.105 million. However, her patience paid well as the player managed to double, even the stacks, and take the lead. She never looked back from that point on. After an epic marathon of chips going back and forth for 175 hands, Bonyadi eventually eliminated her final opponent.
The final hand in play saw Bonyadi raise to 425,000 pre-flop and Beach call. The [6d][4d][7c] landed on the flop. Bonyadi checked and Beach bet 600,000. Bonyadi check-raised to 1.2 million, which her opponent called. The [3s] arrived on the turn to see Bonyadi bet 600,000 and Beach call. The [5h] rolled out on the river. Bonyadi moved all in with [8s][8d] and Beach called with [9s][7s]. The latter hit the rail for $192,397, as WSOP’s brand new champion raised her hands in the air in celebration.
As mentioned above, the Super Seniors tournament attracted 2,191 entries who created a prize pool of $1,971,900. The top 329 places paid with cashes starting from $1,500.

Detroit casino carjackers rumbled after string of VIP robberies
Detroit police have busted a gang that preyed on high-rolling gamblers who won big at local casinos.
On Thursday, local CBS affiliate WDIV reported that three individuals had been arrested in connection with a scheme that involved several robberies and carjackings of victims who’d just left the MGM Grand Detroit and MotorCity casinos.
The incidents occurred last September, and involved one gang member observing activity in high-limit gambling areas, then following high-rollers into the properties’ parking garages to identify their vehicles. The other members of the gang would wait in the parking lot, then follow the VIPs’ vehicles in their own cars.
Once on the highway, the perps would bump their vehicles into the VIPs’ cars, prompting them to pull over to inspect the damage. When the victims emerged from their cars, the perps would pull pistols, then take the victims’ money and phones. Depending on the model, the perps would sometimes drive off in the victims’ cars.
Police checked the casinos’ parking lot security videos to identify the vehicles involved in the carjackings, then set up a sting to tail the vehicles, eventually catching the perps in the act. The trio have been charged with multiple offenses, including conspiracy to commit carjacking and use of a firearm during and in relation to a violent crime.
Casino patrons who wager more than most have occasionally been targeted in more creative ways, including an incident in Maryland in which the perps affixed a GPS tracking device to a VIP’s car, trailed him to his home and robbed him there.
Detroit’s three commercial casinos reported combined gaming revenue of $124.6m in May, up 3.9% from the same month last year but well off the market’s record performance of $138.6m in March of this year. MGM led the way with $54.3m (+7.6%), followed by MotorCity with $41.5m (+2.2%) while Greektown was essentially flat at $28.8m.
