Picking up the action on the turn with around 350,000 already in the middle, the board read {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Jason Koonce led out for 225,000 from the big blind and Mustapha Kanit called from the button. The river was the {10-Clubs} and Koonce quickly shoved all in, putting Kanit to the test for his remaining 515,000 chips. The Italian thought for a minute but eventually, let his hand go.

In the very next hand, Christoph Vogelsang moved all in for 335,000 in early position and Kanit also ripped all in for 515,000 in the cutoff. Koonce looked down at his cards in the small blind and re-shoved all in as well.

Jason Koonce: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Mustapha Kanit: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Christoph Vogelsang: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Koonce was in line for another massive pot heading his way and the flop of {j-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} left him well out front. The {9-Diamonds} on the turn gave Vogelsang a straight draw but the {5-Clubs} on the river gave Koonce the double knockout and a massive stack of chips.
