Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

According to Ben Yu, he opened with a raise to 65,000 from early position and was called by one player before Ludovic Geilich three-bet, making it 270,000. Yu then moved all in with a stack of about 1,500,000 and action folded back to Geilich who called.

Ben Yu: {K-}{K-}
Ludovic Geilich: {A-}{K-}

The board ran out {Q-}{10-}{2-}{3-}{2-} and that meant that Yu's kings would hold up, giving him the big pot and pushing him to nearly three million in chips while Geilich hit the rail.
