Aces Hold Strong

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With about 17,800 in the pot and the flop showing 5♦2♣9♠, Zhendong Li bet 5,500 from early position, getting a call from Nazar Buhaiov on the button.

Li kept the pressure on with a hefty 21,500 bet on the 5♠ turn, and once again, Buhaiov made the call.

On the J♣ river, Li shifted gears, checking to Buhaiov, who used a time bank card before moving all in. Li snap-called, revealing Q♠J♠ for a missed flush draw but a pair of jacks. However, Buhaiov turned over A♦A♥ for an overpair, scooping the pot and leaving Li short-stacked.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Simon Mattsson and Fintan Hand just got all of their chips into the middle preflop from the blinds. Mattsson had slightly fewer chips than Hand so he was the player at risk.

Simon Mattsson: A♠A♥ All in
Fintan Hand: A♣K♠

Mattsson was on the right end of a cooler and looked poised to double-up. The board ran out 3♣4♥7♣9♥7♠, Mattsson had doubled up, whereas Hand was left with only a few chips and was eliminated on the next hand

John Kelly: A♠K♦ All in
Markkos Ladev: A♣Q♣

Ladev had spiked a queen on the turn to take the lead with two pair, but Kelly still had outs to stay in the tournament. However, the blank 2♣ hit the river and Kelly was out.
