Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

John Racener raised and Gal Bar three-bet on the button to 54,000. Amirpasha Emami tanked in the big blind and four-bet to 200,000. Racener folded and Bar shoved, putting Emami at risk for his last 70,000. The latter considered it for some time, hoping to reach the next payjump, and eventually called after the clack has been called.

Amirpasha Emami: K♦Q♦ All in
Gal Bar: K♠K♣

Emami didn't find any miracle on a board A♠2♠2♥6♠6♥ and made his way to the exit.,
