Pan Flips Best

Level 6 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Ryuta Nakai opened to 12,000 in middle position and found himself facing a three-bet to 48,000 from Qinghai Pan in the small blind. Nakai responded with a four-bet jam, having Pan's stack of 162,500 covered. Pan took a moment before flicking in a chip to call.

Qinghai Pan: AK All in
Ryuta Nakai: QQ

The deck favoured Pan on this occasion, as the 9A8 flop saw him harness the lead.

There was no reversal in fortunes for Nakai, as the 2 turn and 4 river completed the board.
