Aleksandrs Golubevs opened to 5,000 in the cutoff and Dave Mcconachie defended his big blind.

Another check from Mcconachie followed the 5♠ river, with Golubevs taking some time before announcing a bet of 27,000. Mcconachie then took a moment before opting to lay it down.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Four-way action to the 4♦3♠7♦ flop saw the big blind at risk after Lucia Navarro moved all in from middle position. Dimitrios Kontos tool some time in the cutoff before making the call, while Vivian Saliba folded quickly in the small blind.

A U: K♦7♣ All in
Lucia Navarro: A♣A♥ All in
Dimitrios Kontos: 8♣8♦

"This is my favorite hand," Kontos told Navarro.

"This is mine," Navarro answered, pointing to her pocket aces.

The Q♣ turn and 9♣ river changed nothing, as Navarro more than doubled with her aces while sending one opponent to the rail.
