A player in early position raised to 3,200 and the hijack called before Nohad Teliani of Team Lam jammed for her last 14,500 in the big blind. The original raiser folded and the hijack made the call.

Hijack: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The flop missed both players when it came {j-Spades}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs}, and the {a-Clubs} hit the turn before the {2-Hearts} landed on the river. Both players made two pair aces and twos but the queen-kicker meant Team Lam was eliminated from the tournament.
