Big Hero Call By Onoufriou
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Joining the action on the 
turn, Antonios Onoufriou checked out of the big blind and Jen-Yue Chiang in early position made it 17,700 to go to pick up a call. On the 
river, Onoufriou checked once more and Chiang used one time bank before cutting out a bet and leading 38,300.
Onoufriou used one time bank and eventually called, what followed was a shaking head by Chiang, who turned over the 
for the busted nutflushdraw. Onoufriou showed 
for a big hero call and raked in a massive pot.
"Would you have folded if I jam? I mean, it is essentially the same," Chiang inquired.
"I told you, it is either jacks or king queen of clubs," Onoufriou added. The same table also features fellow big stack Tamer Kamel.

Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
With more than 20,000 already in the middle and the flop showing 
, Julien Sitbon eventually ended up all in against Ash Miah and was covered by only two big blinds for around 35,000.
Sitbon tabled the 
for an overpair and gutshot, Miah had the 
. The board completed with the 
turn and 
river, sending Sitbon to the rail.
There has also been a shift in the top spot, as Tamer Kamel was sitting behind a massive wall of chips, his table broke and he was kind enough to explain what happened while raking up the chips.
According to Kamel, he called a button raise with sixes in the big blind and check-called a bet on the 
flop. On the 
turn, Kamel check-raised to 19,000 and his opponent from Spain called before Kamel's river bet on the for 37,000 was called. Kamel tabled his set and that was good enough to win the pot.
