Level 8 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Nick Palma opened from under the gun and Kyle Lin three-bet to 75,000 from the hijack. Ali Abdulzahra then four-bet to around 2,000,000 in the big blind and Palma folded as Lin called with a stack of around 900,000.

Kyle Lin: K♥K♠ All in
Ali Abdulzahra: Q♠Q♦

Lin was in great shape and the runout of A♦6♦2♥A♥K♣ only improved his hand as he doubles with kings full of aces.

A few hands earlier, Matthew Wantman was eliminated at the table.

Katie Lindsay opened to 32,000 before Isaac Haxton three-bet to 120,000.

Level 8 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Allan Barnes opened to 32,000 in the cutoff, and Denys Chufarin made the call to his left on the button. Aaron Olechnowicz took a moment in the big blind before firing out a three-bet to 300,000.

Barnes folded quickly, while Chufarin made the call. The 8♣10♣5♦ flop brought a bet of 100,000 from Olechnowicz, with Chufarin calling again to see the 4♣ turn.

Olechnowicz led out once more, the time for 350,000. Chufarin counted out the call and slid the chips forward, with the 3♦ hitting the river.

Olechnowicz fired a bet of 450,000, and Chufarin relented by sliding his cards into the muck.
