Level 24
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Orod Ashegh in middle position was all in and at risk against Edmund Chan in the hijack.
Orod Ashegh: A♣A♥8♣4♣
Edmund Chan: A♠K♠K♦3♠
The board ran out 10♥2♦4♠A♦9♦. Ashegh's top set earned him the double up and left Chan to his last 50,000 chips.
Chan was under the gun the very next hand and moved all in. The jam of 50,000 was called by the hijack, button, small blind and big blind.
The flop of 5♦10♥Q♠ checked through to the 3♥ on the turn. Ap Garza, from the small blind, managed to whittle the players in the hand to just Chan and the cards were on their backs.
Edmund Chan: A♠K♥8♣4♦
Ap Garza: J♣J♠6♣3♣
The river came the 5♠ sending Chan to the rail in dramatic fashion.
