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

Hanson Henry had 31,500 in front of him in the hijack, having called the shove of a player in the small blind. A player on the button looked to have called an initial raise by Henry of 3,500, and he was in the tank with his stack counted down. Finally, he shoved also for 52,000. Henry called that as well.

Button:
Small blind:

It was a great scenario for Henry with the aces shared, and the board enabled him to bust both opponents.
