Bleiker Gets Short; Ochana Doubles

Level 20 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

On the heads-up turn showing {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{K-Hearts}, Felix Bleiker bet 390,000 and James Park raised the pot to give Bleiker just two options: All in or fold. Bleiker opted for the latter and dropped down.

Soon after, Rifat Palevic raised from the cutoff and Felix Bleiker three-bet to 160,000 on the button. Palevic called and the duo checked the {A-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop and the {9-Clubs} turn. Palevic bet the {5-Spades} river and Bleiker folded.

William Kakon three-bet the pot once and raised the pot another time, flashing pocket aces both times, to build his stack.

Last but not least, short stack Eddie Ochana doubled through Esther Taylor. Ochana was at risk with the {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Taylor showed pocket kings. The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Ochana got there with a runner-runner flush to double for 242,000.
