Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Marco Johnson raised to 130,000 in the cutoff and was called by Yang Li on the button and big blind Mike Vanier.

The flop came A♣4♠4♣ and Johnson bet another 130,000. Li got out of the way, but Vanier raised to 325,000. Johnson then moved all in and Vanier snap-called for 1,040,000.

Mike Vanier: 6♥4♥ All in
Marco Johnson: A♠9♠

Vanier turned over trip fours and was poised for a double up as the 6♦ fell on the turn to improve him to a full house. Johnson was left looking for one of the remaining two aces in the deck on the river, but he missed the 7♠ and handed over the double up.

Marco Johnson	2,900,000 -900,000	-900,000

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Brock Wilson opened to 125,000 in the hijack and Mike Vanier three-bet to 375,000 in the cutoff. Marco Johnson then four-bet to 850,000 in the small blind and Wilson folded as Vanier five-bet jammed a stack of around 2,300,000. Johnson called with a bigger stack.

Mike Vanier: K♣K♠ All in
Marco Johnson: A♦A♥

Vanier picked up kings at the worst time and he was still behind after the 8♠2♠2♦ flop. The 6♠ turn gave him additional outs with a flush draw, but the black 2♣ river was the wrong suit to mark Vanier's elimination as Johnson breathed a big sigh of relief.
