Level 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With the news that the Power Path is now a permanent addition to PokerStars, and that players can receive a $0.50 Step 1 Power Path ticket every single day as part of the new PokerStars Rewards program, there's never been a better time to have a look at how the Power Path can reward you and where it can take you.

Both live and online events have featured in the Power Path since its launch last summer, with Special Edition Gold Passes sending lucky players to the NAPT and Las Vegas Grand Prix last December.

This month, we look at the various Passes on offer, including both Gold and Silver Passes for the NAPT festival in Las Vegas, the Women's Winter Festival and the European Poker Tour stop in Prague.

Level 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 60,000 in the hijack before Lewis Spencer moved all in for 247,000 in the small blind. "Alright, let's gamble one time," Vaskaboinikau said as he called.

Lewis Spencer: A♥J♥ All in
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: 6♣5♣

The A♣Q♥2♥ flop left Spencer a big favorite as he hit top pair and the nut flush draw. The 7♣ turn gave Vaskaboinikau his own flush draw, while the 8♣ river completed Vaskaboinikau's flush and sent Spencer to the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Lewis Spencer raised to 60,000 from the cutoff and Alexander Zubov three-bet to 200,000 out of the small blind. Spencer called.

Zubov bet 100,000 on the A♥4♣5♠ flop and Spencer called.

Zubov bet again when the A♠ hit the turn, this time for 125,000. Spencer called again.

Zubov fired a bet of 263,000 on the J♥ river, and Spencer went deep into the tank, using roughly five of his time banks. Eventually, he tossed his cards into the muck and surrendered the pot to Zubov.

Jamil Wakil was eliminated on another table and is no longer in the tournament.
