Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Gus Hansen raised to 35,000 under the gun and was called by William Kerkaert in the cutoff, Daniel Aharoni on the button, and Travis Pearson in the small blind.
The flop came 5♣10♠K♣ and Pearson moved all in for 146,000. Hansen folded, while both Kerkaert and Aharoni called. Aharoni then bet 120,000 on the 5♦ turn to chase away Kerkaert.
Pearson showed A♣Q♦9♣6♦3♠, while Aharoni had A♥Q♠J♥5♥3♦ for trips. The river was the 10♦ and Aharoni took the pot to send Pearson to the rail.
