David Kaye
David Kaye

Ema Zajmovic drew the final three hands of the night and predicted she would double with aces in the final hand of the night.

There were pocket aces around in the last hand but they didn't belong to Zajmovic, who had to forfeit her big blind. David Kaye jammed from under the gun for 76,000 and Tony Tran called from the next seat. Mauricio Ferreira Pais then jammed for 122,000 and Tran called that, too.

David Kaye: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Mauricio Ferreira Pais: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Tony Tran: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Kaye was eliminated while Ferreira Pais nearly tripled.
