Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Immediately after the bubble burst, Chander Jain received a nice double-up when Sebastian Crane moved all in from the cutoff with three shorter stacks behind him. Jain was in the big blind and made the call for 114,000.

Chander Jain: A♠Q♠ All in
Sebastian Crane: 7♣6♥

While waiting for the board to come out, Jain queried, "What color are your aces?"

Crane replied in jest, "I have aces beat, if you have aces you are f******."

The board came out with 7♠8♥Q♠A♦10♣, and Jain received a nice, juicy double up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Sebastian Crane	810,000 124,000	124,000
Chander Jain	232,000 154,000	154,000

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action was heads-up on a completed board: K♦7♠5♠2♣4♠. Vid Zagar, first to speak in the big blind, decided to go all in on the bubble.

Chino Rheem from the cutoff went into the tank with around 450,000 behind. Rheem looked straight at Zagar once more, but ultimately decided to fold. Zagar took the chips from the middle and showed his 3♠.

Player	Chips	Progress
Vid Zagar	725,000 178,000	178,000
Chino Rheem	450,000 237,000	237,000

Norayr Menedyan raised and made the call when Song Wang moved all in from the hijack.

Song Wang: A♥A♦ All in
Norayr Menedyan: A♠Q♠

Menedyan only found a single spade on the 5♠5♦2♥8♥K♥ runout, never challenging Wang's pocket aces on the direct bubble.

Norayr Menedyan	89,000 25,000	25,000
Song Wang	82,000 13,000	13,000

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chun Kit Kwan had been folding diligently before the bubble burst and moved all in from the button after a raise of 13,000 was made by Charles Ansanelli in early position. Ansanelli took some time to decide and eventually decided that the bet amount of 49,000 was worth the risk and called.

Chun Kit Kwan: A♦A♠ All in
Charles Ansanelli: 5♠5♣

The board went well to the relief of Kwan with 6♦10♥9♣2♣6♣, and two pair for Kwan would save his tournament life.
