A player from middle position raised and then called the 49,000 three-bet jam Leo Herrmann made from the button.

Leo Herrmann: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Herrmann was in rough shape until a jack appeared in the window on the {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} flop.

The {6-Spades} turn didn't change a thing and the {q-Diamonds} river kept Herrmann's Main Event alive.

Kolev Rivers King to Eliminate Opponent

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

A series of preflop raises saw the hijack player get their 110,000 stack in the middle and Boris Kolev called from the small blind.

Boris Kolev: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

Kolev was behind looking to connect with either of his two overs but neither appeared on the {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop.

The {4-Clubs} paired the board on the turn and just when Kolev lost hope, the dealer dropped the {k-Hearts} on the river, securing him the massive pot.
