Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Masbah Ben Baba from the cutoff and Keith Romer from the small blind clashed in an all-in pot preflop, and cards were on their backs.

Keith Romer: J♦J♠All in
Masbah Ben Baba: 6♠6♣

Romer's jacks defeated Ben Baba's sixes when the board ran out 7♦2♣K♠8♣9♣.

Romer was hardly done stacking his chips when he found himself involved in an all-in pot this time against Hesham Ayoub. Ayoub jammed for 540,000 from middle position, and Romer called from the button.

Hesham Ayoub: Q♥J♥All in
Keith Romer: A♣K♣

Romer hit an ace on the 6♦10♦A♠ flop, and looked primed for a knockout when the 8♦ turn flipped over. However, the K♦ river gave Ayoub the straight to defeat Romer.
