Big Blind Special for Taylor
Simon Webster opened the action with a raise to 6,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to Joey Taylor from the big blind to 20,000. Webster four-bet all in, effectively putting Taylor all in, and he quickly called.
Joey Taylor: 
Simon Webster: 
Webster's big-slick had found himself in an unavoidable cooler situation, running into Taylor's aces. He was able to hit a pair on the flop 
to give himself some life, but the tun 
and river 
sealed the chance at a knockout and he paid off Taylor's total of 42,700 as a result, leaving himself with around 42,000 left with which to play with under 40 minutes left in Flight B.
