Four Way Madness in the Shootout

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Andrew Kim

Despite the fact that every other table here in the Paris ballroom is down to two-handed play, nobody on table #190 had plans of going to bed any time soon, as four players still have chips in front of them in level 11.

With blinds at 1,000/2,500 with a 2,500 big blind ante, Zachary Lipeles, Andrew Kim, Tzur Levy, and Hang Xu were all refusing to be sent home, as they each held around 25% of chips left on the table. However, one hand changed everything, as Lipeles Kim and Levy abandoned their conservative playing style and got all their chips into the middle before a flop was dealt.

Zachary Lipeles: A10 All in
Tzur Levy: AQ All in
Andrew Kim: A7

The 9K283 board came safe for Levy, leaving him with a big stack, Kim with a little stack, and Lipeles with no stack.

In the following two hands, Kim doubled through Xu, then bust to Levy, leaving him a considerable chip leader as we go heads-up.
