Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Matthew Wantman raised to 95,000 with 2,000 behind from early position and Lance Hendricks called on the button.

On the J♠3♥2♠ flop, Wantman checked to Hendricks who bet the last 2,000 and Wantman called all-in.

Matthew Wantman: A♣K♣ All in
Lance Hendricks: A♠J♣

Wantman had the better ace but was outflopped by Hendricks. The 5♦ on the turn gave Wantman some chop outs but it was the K♥ on the river which gave Wantman the outright win as he survived at the expense of Hendricks.

Connor Richards

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Matt Affleck opened to 20,000 in middle position and Kitty Kuo three-bet in the small blind. Affleck four-bet jammed a stack of around 150,000 and Kuo quickly called.

Matt Affleck: K♠K♥ All in
Kitty Kuo: A♣K♣

Affleck, who famously had aces cracked by Jonathan Duhamel deep in the 2010 WSOP Main Event, braced for disaster as the board ran out J♣4♥7♠7♥6♣ to earn him a double.

"You can tell who at this table has PTSD and who doesn't," commented Brock Wilson.

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Byung Shin and Yang Li went to a flop of J♠10♦9♠ where Shin moved all in for 76,000 from the big blind. Li snap-called in early position.

Byung Shin: K♠5♠ All in
Yang Li: J♦J♥

Li showed down top set, while Shin had straight and flush draws. The Q♠ turn completed both of his draws to give him the lead, while the river was the A♠ and Shin doubled up.

At the same time at another table, Justin Lapka and Victor Paredes built a pot of around 120,000 in a blind versus blind battle to the river on a board of J♣7♠5♦10♣4♦. Lapka then bet 190,000 from the big blind.

Paredes took a few minutes before calling with J♠4♠ for two pair, and Lapka flashed just ace-high as Paredes took down the big pot.

"Nitroll," Lapka joked with Paredes after the hand.
