Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Felipe Ketzer opened to 1,100 from the cutoff and Julian Milliard three-bet to 4,900 from the small blind. Matthias Lipp four-bet to 12,000 from the big blind, Ketzer folded and Milliard five-bet to 27,500, leaving 30,000 behind. Lipp shoved with a covering stack and Milliard called, putting himself at risk.

Julian Milliard: A♣A♥ All in
Matthias Lipp: A♦K♦

Milliard was a massive favorite with pocket aces over ace-king on the Q♣4♣5♥ flop. The K♠ turn gave Lipp two outs to trip kings but the J♥ river was clean for Milliard who secured a full double up.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Simeon Spasov raised to 1,100 from the hijack before Kristen Foxen elected to three-bet from the small blind to 4,500. The action folded back to Spasov, who made the call.

The action checked through on the 7♠4♣J♠ flop, but when the dealer added the K♥ to the board, Foxen placed a bet of 6,000. Spasov made the call before Foxen hit the brakes on the 5♥ river, checking over to Spasov. Spasov checked back, tabling his A♣7♣, which was good enough to beat Foxen's A♥Q♣.
