Jiang had run right into Warden's aces as he picked up a pair on the 3♣2♦K♣ flop, but he improved no further on the 10♥ turn and 8♥ river and was sent to the rail.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Ben McCoy raised to 3,500 in middle position, Brett Slezak moved all in for 10,500 in the cutoff, and McCoy called.

Brett Slezak: 6♣6♥ All in
Ben McCoy: A♠J♠

"I'm about 23 percent," Slezak said going to the flop, which came 6♠2♥3♥ to give him a set. "Maybe a little higher. I shouldn't have said that," Slezak added.

The rest of the board ran out 9♥4♥. "Oh, I have a heart," McCoy joked, pretending to take Slezak's 6♥ and add it to his hand before handing over the double up.
