Level 23 : Blinds 0/0, 30,000 ante

8♠7♦A♥J♣9♠
K♥4♣A♠3♦2♠

Richard Green found himself to the left of the button, and as the first player to act, he bet pot for 210,000. Action folded all the way around to the button, Tyler Levin, who repotted it, which put Green at risk as he made the call for the rest of his chips.

Levin showed that he had made a shove with A♦6♠5♦3♥. He only had a pair of aces on each board, but had straight draws on both; the top being open-ended, and the bottom being a gutshot to a two. That being said, Levin miraculously hit both draws on the rivers. Green was sent home in 23rd, as his flopped two pair on both the top and bottom board with A♣K♦7♥8♥ were no good.
