In Level 21, with blinds at 15,000/30,000 and a 30,000 big blind ante, Alex Bylicki hauled in a monster pot to knock out two players to join the big stacks with 3.4 million, roughly three times the average stack.
The action kicked off with Bylicki opening from the hijack. The cutoff then reraised to 475,000, leaving just 5,000 behind, before the button moved all in for just under 800,000. The blinds quickly folded, and after a moment of thought, Bylicki made the call as the covering stack. The cutoff committed his last chip as well.
Cutoff: A♦Q♠
Button: A♣Q♦
Alex Bylicki: Q♥Q♣
The 7♦2♥3♥ flop kept Bylicki firmly in front, and the J♥ turn improved his position even further, leaving both opponents drawing to just one out. The K♣ river completed the board, and Bylicki let out a visible sigh of relief as he boosted his stack by more than 1.2 million.
