Kenneth Asher: JJ All in
Anselmo Villarreal: AK

What a Fold From Singh

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Raminder Singh
Raminder Singh

Raminder Singh opened to 90,000 from under the gun, and Terry Mccranie moved all in for 340,000 in the hijack. Timothy Frasure, who had all players covered, shoved over the top to isolate from the small blind. Action folded to Andrew Kelsall in the big blind, who took a moment before jamming as well.

Singh, now facing a massive decision, tanked for nearly three minutes before open-folding QQ.

Terry Mccranie: 99 All in
Andrew Kelsall: AA All in
Timothy Frasure: 1010

The flop came A108, and Frasure prematurely celebrated until he saw the Ace, the J on the turn gave Mccranie a straight draw but no luck as the 2 was dealt on the river. Mccranie was eliminated and Kelsall is now playing nearly 4,000,000 chips.
