Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Josh Thomas
Josh Thomas

Joshua Thomas and Michael Rossitto got it all in preflop in a classic coin flip situation, with Thomas the one at risk.

Joshua Thomas: Ax10x All in
Michael Rossitto: 77

Thomas paired his ace on the 7A4 flop, but Rossitto improved to a set. The 10 turn and 6 river offered no help to Thomas and he was the first elimination of the day.

Song Gets Huge Double

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Linyang Song
Linyang Song

After a raise to 120,000 from Tzur Levy in the hijack and a call from Jordan Westmorland, Linyang Song called on the button, leaving both the blinds to get out of the way.

Three players saw the 73J flop, and action checked to Song who, with ultimate position, bet out for 250,000. Levy was his only customer.

The turn brought in the 6 and after being checked to Song bet out again, this time for 615,000. Levy took plenty of time to ponder what to do, he asked how much Song had behind, and Song let him know that it was an even million. Levy checked his cards one last time, before announcing "all in." Song snapped him off and asked, "pocket jacks?" worried that he was drawing extremely thin, but soon found out he couldn't have had it any better.

Linyang Song: 77 All in
Tzur Levy: AJ

Levy was drawing stone dead, and the dealer ceremonially brought the cards into the middle to put out the K river, which was always going to be inconsequential. Song's second set of the day gets him paid for a second time, as he joins Westmorland at the top of the chip counts, whilst Levy spins the opposite way.

Wheeler Gets Much Needed Double

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jason Wheeler
Jason Wheeler

Linyang Song was on the button when he flatted Tian Liu's raise to 120,000. This action prompted Stephen Wheeler to rip in his stack of 760,000. Liu decided that his hand wasn't strong enough to make the call, as he folded, but Song was having a harder time coming to a decision. Eventually, he put in the 11 big blinds needed to make the call.

Stephen Wheeler: 77 All in
Linyang Song: 108

The A234J board came clean for Wheeler, and he celebrated as he was alive and kicking again in the shootout.
