Massey Continues to Steamroll

Level 38 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Aaron Massey opened to 2,600,000 from the cutoff and Yingxin Chen defended his big blind. The dealer fanned out {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{6-Spades} on the flop and both players checked to the {10-Diamonds} turn card.

Both players tapped the table again and a {q-Diamonds} completed the board. Chen checked to Massey, he bet 4,000,000 and Chen snap-called. Massey tabled {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for two pair and Chen mucked ace-jack, sending another pot to Massey.

Aaron Massey opened from the button and Harry Korotki defended his big blind. The dealer fanned out {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {j-Diamonds} turn card where Korotki shoved all in for around 10,000,000.

Massey snap-called and Korotki showed {q-Spades}{8-Spades} for a pair of queens, which was drawing dead after Massey tabled his monster {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, giving him a flush.

Massey had Korotki drawing dead to the {k-Diamonds} river and Korotki took an exit in fifth place, being yet another to fall victim to the red-hot Massey.

Chris Mailhot opened to 2,700,000 from the hijack and action folded to Aaron Massey in the big blind who announced that he was all-in. Mailhot called for his 26,500,000 stack and the two tabled their hands with Mailhot at risk,

Chris Mailhot: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The flop came down huge for Massey when the dealer fanned out {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, giving him a set of snowmen. A {4-Spades} on the river sealed the deal for Massey as he now had Mailhot drawing dead to the {5-Hearts} river card. Mailhot took an exit in sixth place for $38,886, setting a new personal best.
