Slack Claims Lead At the End
Level 13
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ben Slack soared to the top of the leaderboard when he scored a knockout in the final hands of the night. In the meanwhile, Savvas Mitsikouridis, Oliver Price and Emrah Yildiz all departed to reduce the field to the last 31 contenders.
In the last hand of the night, Tal Afek raised to 6,500 and Yucel Eminoglu three-bet to 22,000. Afek then jammed for 79,500 and Eminoglu went into the tank. He mentioned in chat he held pocket jacks and folded the 
face up. "I would hate if you showed nines or tens," Eminoglu had said during his monologue and Alex Jennings then joked to Afek to show his cards.
"I can't show," Afek replied with a big grin, hinting at his very specific holdings.
