Yu Doubles with Ace-High

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Trevor Yu moved all in from early position and after some deliberation, was called by Sunil Bains on the button, putting Yu at risk.

Trevor Yu: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Sunil Bains: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds} which meant Yu held with his ace-high and was pushed the pot for a full double.

Black Sent Home By Kipling

Level 34 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

John Black and Robert Kipling got all their chips in the middle before the flop, with Black at risk of elimination.

John Black: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Robert Kipling: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

"Come on, hold one time," pleaded Black, "ok just a little sweat though," he added in true poker fashion.

But the flop of {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Spades} left him pretty far behind Kiplings pair of aces, and the runout of {k-Spades}{9-Clubs} completed the board and Black was eliminated.

Man Finishes Off Lowe

Level 33 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

On the very next hand, John Lowe shoved for his last 1,100,000 with {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and was called by Ka Wai Man with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

The flop {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} gave Lowe both straight and flush draws, but the {q-Clubs} turn gave Man top pair, causing him to jump out of his seat with excitement.

"It's irrelevant, really," commented someone at the table, as Lowe was still drawing relatively live. The river was the {5-Clubs}, however, and Lowe was eliminated.
