Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

After some raise and three-bet action, Naor Slobodskoy moved all in, and Michael Wang found himself with nearly his entire stack already committed, holding onto just around 60,000 behind. With the pay jump in sight, Wang took a moment before deciding to call, and the cards were turned up.

Michael Wang: 6♥6♠ All in
Naor Slobodskoy: Q♦Q♥

Wang needed help to overcome Slobodskoy’s queens, but the J♥4♣7♣ flop gave him nothing. The 8♣ on the turn opened up some straight possibilities, but the 4♦ river sealed his fate, and Wang hit the rail.
