Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action folded around to the hijack where Jonathan Karamalikis moved all in for 36,500. Action folded to the button where Hannah Lee moved all in over the top for roughly 70,000. Everyone else folded and it was on to a showdown.

Jonathan Karamalikis: {2-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Hannah Lee: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{7-Clubs} and Lee was unable to find the cards she needed to secure the knockout. With that, Karamalikis was able to survive and he doubled up to right around 80,000 while Lee was left with just over ten big blind.
