Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Jason Koon limped from early position and Chris Frank called on the button. Ian Matakis called from the small blind and Phillipp Mellon raised to 15,000. Koon and Frank called, with Matakis mucking his hand, taking the players three-way to the J♥10♣8♥ flop.

Action checked around to the Q♣ turn and Mellon bet pot for 51,000. Koon was the only caller and the 9♠ completed the board.

Mellon bet 82,000 and Koon mucked, Mellon ended the hand on over one million in chips.
