A short-stacked Ian Prevost shoved the last of his chips into the middle holding {K-Spades}{9-Spades} and was given action from Rami Boukai in the big blind, who invested an extra 24,600 to make the call with {A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}.

The board filled out {J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Boukai's ace-high held up to win the pot, sending Prevost home with $33,240 in prize money. The win propelled Boukai up to 470,000 in chips, moving him a couple spots closer to the top of the leaderboard.
