Level 23 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Barak Wisbrod put enough chips into the middle to cover the stack of Sam Soverel, who made the call, risking his tournament life.

Sam Soverel: 9♥8♣ All in
Barak Wisbrod: K♣4♣

There was no sweat for Wisbrod, who improved to top pair on the 2♣6♥K♦ flop, and sealed the deal with the A♣ turn and 8♠ river.

On a nearby table, Dimitar Danchev took care of Christopher Nguyen to advance to the next round.
