Level 13
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Dominykas Mikolaitis opened from early position and was called by Sergey Lebedev. Brandon Steven, in the big blind, squeezed to 270,000. Mikolaitis shoved as the big stack. Lebedev folded and then Steven called off his stack of around 1,100,000.
Brandon Steven: A♥A♠
Dominykas Mikolaitis: A♣K♥
Mikolaitis was crushed but picked up two outs on the K♠J♥2♥ flop after pairing his king. Steven then smacked the table with his chips when the K♣ peeled off on the turn to give Mikolaitis trips. The 6♦ river completed the board, and Steven was sickeningly sent to the wrong side of the rail.
