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

Kenneth Asher was sitting with a short stack and played two dynamic all-in hands in a row.

In the first hand, Asher moved all in from late position for 195,000, and Shawn Van Asdale made an isolation raise of 500,000, and everyone else folded.

Kenneth Asher: 5♥5♠ All in
Shawn Van Asdale: J♠J♥

The board ran well for Asher with 9♣10♦5♣7♣10♠, and he ended up with a full house.

On the other hand, Kenneth Asher was all in again from early position for 490,000 and received a call from Anselmo Villarreal, who was on the button.

Kenneth Asher: J♣J♦ All in
Anselmo Villarreal: A♠K♦

The board did not run well for Asher this time with Q♦Q♥A♥4♥10♥, and Villarreal won with two pair.

One of the players announced, "The Jacks Giveth, the Jacks Taketh Away".

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 Q♥Q♠.

Terry Mccranie: 9♦9♠ All in
Andrew Kelsall: A♠A♥ All in
Timothy Frasure: 10♥10♠

The flop came A♣10♣8♣, 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.
