Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
With roughly 35,000 already in the pot, and the board showing J♣2♣8♦, Ryo Matsubara in the big blind was facing an all-in raise of 131,000 from Ken Hart in the small blind.
After using two time extensions, Matsubara made the call to put Hart at risk.
Ken Hart: K♠J♠ 
Ryo Matsubara: 8♥2♥
Dong had the best of it with his bottom two pair, and the 6♣ on the turn kept him in front. But the J♦ on the river gave Hart trips to give him a double up.
