Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Phil Vera (from Day 1b)
Phil Vera (from Day 1b)

In a preflop all in three players were all in with Phil Vera having both his opponents covered.

Vera had {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Shyam Srinivasan had the {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Tu Dao held the {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.

The board would be very kind to Vera as it came {9-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{k-Spades} for quad kings and he eliminated both Canadians in one fell swoop.
