Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Cards were on their backs in a three-way preflop all-in pot, with Rachi Almeida and Taehyun Hwang at risk versus Sabare Atmani.

Rachi Almeida: A♦Q♦
Taehyun Hwang: K♣K♠
Sabare Atmani: K♥Q♥

Hwang was in a superb spot with kings, and the runout of 6♥10♥10♣7♦8♣ did not alter matters, although he had a bit of a sweat when Atmani flopped a flush draw.
