Singh Puts Pressure on Kikia

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

The action kicked off with an open raise to 125,000 by Clive Kikia with the KQ and Sugen Singh three-bet to 500,000 with the AQ. It folded to Marko Nortje, who had a stack of 700,000 on the button with JJ. Nortje used one time bank extension and glanced at the tournament info screen.

No decision was made during the 25 seconds and Nortje used another two time banks, then folded. It came back to Kikia, who also sent his suited broadway connectors into the muck.

Britz Four-Bet Jams With Aces

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Muaaz Gani opened to 105,000 from under the gun with A8 and Sugen Singh three-bet to 305,000 in the cutoff holding the 1010 in the cutoff. Renier Britz pushed all-in for 870,000 on the button with AA and it folded back to Singh. He asked for an exact count and got away from his dominated pocket pair which he showed, since Britz had played very few hands on this final table.

"You fold to my shove?" Gani jokingly asked.
