Kevin Frame opened the action with a raise to 120,000 in late position. He left just 10,000 behind in his stack, as he found himself on a pay jump. Jamie Kerstetter made the call on his direct left, and everyone else folded.

On a flop of J♣8♣3♥ Frame checked, and Kerstetter placed out a min-bet. Frame took his time to contemplate his decision, and after a player at another table busted, he put in the call.

Jamie Kerstetter: K♠K♥ All in
Kevin Frame: K♣10♦

Frame was in need of running cards, that didn't come on the 4♠6♦ runout.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Henry Liang of Team Liang opened to 175,000 in the cutoff, leaving himself just 15,000 behind. Jack Nathan of Team Lambrecht then stuck in a large stack of blue 100,000 denomination chips, enough to put any player remaining with cards all in. Only Liang made the call.

Henry Liang: 9♠6♠ All in
Jack Nathan: A♣J♥

The 8♥4♠8♣ flop didn't have much for Liang, however the 5♠ turn was one of the best cards he could've seen, improving him to a gutshot and a flush draw. However, he bricked both on the 5♥ river as Team Lambrecht's chip stack hasn't ceased growing.
