Level 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Mark Ellerbe shoved all in from middle position and was called by Brian Kelley in the small blind.

Mark Ellerbe: A9 All in
Brian Kelley: AK

Ellerbe knew he was in trouble with the dominated hand and it ran out per the odds, with Kelley taking more than 8 million chips on a board that ran out 58A57.

Undeterred, Ellerbe was again all-in the next hand under the gun, for 3,550,000. Jeffrey Hong, seated to Ellerbe's left, made the call, but then bowed out when Benjamin Eilers made an all-in bet.

Mark Ellerbe: A5 All in
Benjamin Eilers: KK

It didn't take long for Ellerbe to overtake Eilers' kings, as the flop hit A5J. His pair held on turn and river of 47.
