Suited Ace Does It for Salter

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

Samuel Vousden raised to 2,500 in the cutoff and Jack Salter three-bet to 11,500 in the small blind. Pavlo Kolinkovskyi four-bet to 28,000 in the big blind and Vousden got out of the way.

Salter then five-bet shoved all in for 139,090 and Kolinkovskyi quickly slid in calling chips.

Jack Salter: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Pavlo Kolinkovskyi: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Salter flopped two aces on an {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop and rivered a three for good measure to knock out Kolinkovskyi.

Floppin' sets in three-bet pots
Floppin' sets in three-bet pots

After a raise from George Kitsios and a call from Hannes "BlackFortuna" Speiser, Patrick Leonard (on his second bullet, three-bet to 16,800 from the small blind. Rahul Byrraju cold-called from the big blind, enticing Kitsios and Speiser to peel a flop as well.

With {8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} appearing, it was Kitsios who bet 34,320 after two checks. Speiser called, and Byrraju called as well. On the {6-Hearts} turn, Byrraju checked, Kitsios shoved for 70,240, Speiser called all in for 39,281, and Byrraju folded.

George Kitsios: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Hannes "BlackFortuna" Speiser: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Speiser was drawing stone dead, making the {k-Clubs} river a mere formality.

Two bounties awarded
Two bounties awarded

Andrii Derzhypilskyi made it 3,520 to go first to act and "Apowers1968", already on his second bullet, called all in for a mere 169 one seat over. With the bounty in play, "ULMFKR" shoved all in for a whopping 96,620 next to act, but more players were interested.

Folded to Timothy Adams in the big blind, he called all in for 91,654. Derzhypilskyi also called, covering all three other players.

"Apowers1968": {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}
"ULMFKR": {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Timothy Adams: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Andrii Derzhypilskyi: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for Adams to turn two pair and the main pot. Derzhypilsky won the small side pot off "ULMFKR" and despite barely getting any chips out of it, the Ukrainian ended up with a bounty as well.
