93Q66
38KQ5

The flop was checked through and Xixiang Luo fired out 480,000 on the turn. To his surprise, Robert Klein, Yang Wang, and Brian Smith all called.

When the rivers dropped, Smith was first to act and threw out a bet of 1,000,000. Luo called, and both Klein & Wang folded.

Smith showed AA104 for a pair of aces on both boards.

"Just aces?" asked Luo. "Crazy,". he added, as he showed 9864 for a full house on the top, which meant the two chopped it up.

All players checked on the flops. Xixiang Luo then fired 160,000 on the turns from middle position, which Samuel Stranak called in the hijack. It folded to Giorgos Tsoupras under the gun, who check-jammed for 1,120,000.

Luo folded, but Stranak immediately called, exclaiming, "Chop it up!"

Giorgos Tsoupras: 101093 All in
Samuel Stranak: J1065

No chopping would be done, however, as Tsoupras' full house on the bottom board was not enough to take the pot, with Stranak having a higher one.

Stranak made two full houses on the river to finish the hand in style and officially send Tsoupras to the rail in 12th.

Level 27 : Blinds 0/0, 80,000 ante

K54

Xixiang Luo kicked things off with a bet on the flop of 260,000 from the cutoff and Samuel Stranak called on the button. Yang Wang then check-raised to 1,500,000, which gave Giorgos Tsoupras a decision. After thinking it over, Tsoupras decided to fold and later mentioned that he folded 10x8x6x6x with clubs.

Luo folded, then Stranak went deep into the tank for around two minutes.

"Hmmmm,", said Stranak as he continued to mull it over. Eventually, he did fold. Wang flashed the 4 as he pulled in the pot.

Jacob Baumgartner is back as the short stack after calling a bet and having to fold the turn.
