Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

David Hu raised to 200,000 from under the gun before Nikolay Fal in the big blind reraised to 700,000, leaving himself only 30,000 behind. Hu then shoved to put Fal all in.

"I'm going to call. Just going to make sure," Fal said as he looked around at the other tables before throwing in his last chips.

Fal had {j-Spades}{j-Clubs} and was in a coin flip against Hu's {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. The {7-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop gave Hu top pair, and he held on through the {a-Clubs} turn and {5-Hearts} river to send Fal to the rail in 19th place.
