The action folded to Matthew Hunt in the hijack who moved all in for 285,000. Michael Rodrigues was next to act and made the call with a bigger stack and the rest of the table got out of the way.

Matthew Hunt: Q10
Michael Rodrigues: JJ

Rodrigues was well ahead preflop, but when the flop came 10105, the flopped trips for Hunt took a commanding lead. The A8 runout was no help to Rodrigues and Hunt scored the double up.

Hayami Raises The River

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Masaya Hayami raised to 50,000 from the hijack and was called by Ankit Ahuja in the big blind.

Both players checked on the QQ8 flop and A turn; however, Ahuja led out for 45,000 on the 2 river.

Hayami then raised to 90,000 and Ahuja looked him up.

Hayami tabled AJ for aces and queens and Ahuja mucked — conceding the pot to Hayami.
