Level 27 : 70,000/140,000, 20,000 ante

Ami Barer

Ami Barer raised to 307,899 on the button and Andrii Novak made it 1 million in the big blind. Barer shoved and Novak called for about 3.5 million.

Novak: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Barer: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Novak's queens held on the {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs} board and left Barer with about 2 million.

That went in the next hand calling off from the big blind when Novak shoved.

Novak: {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Barer: {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Barer stayed best on the {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} flop but the {9-Spades} vaulted Novak way ahead with a straight. The {j-Spades} didn't do it for Barer, who went from big stack to bust in a flash.
