Level 13
: 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
A middle position player opened to 6,000, and three players called, including Andy Zhu on the button.
The flop came 
, and action checked to the original raiser, who bet 17,000. The hijack reraised all in, Zhu went all in over the top, and the player on the small blind went all in. The original raiser folded.
Hijack: 
Andy Zhu:
Small Blind:
The small blind has the biggest of the three stacks going to showdown, but was behind both shorter stacks when the flop came out. Zhu looked to be in great shape with his set of twos, and the turn improced him to a full boat.
The river 
clinched the win for Zhu, who collected the hijack's bounty. The player on the small blind is still in, with 50,000 chips after the massive hand.

Dan Kaplan had his last 69,500 in preflop from the big blind and was at risk against Chris Moneymaker in the hijack.
Dan Kaplan:
Chris Moneymaker: 
Moneymaker found a queen on the 
flop to take the lead. The turn gave Moneymaker an open-ender, while Kaplan could still survive with an ace or a jack. The river caused Moneymaker to let out a groan, before he told Kaplan, "Nice hand, sir!" and sent most of his stack across the table.
