Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Phillip Hui bet 280,000 from the button and was called by Zachary Vankeuren in the big blind.

The flop came J♦J♥7♠ and Vankeuren took the betting lead with a 140,000 bet which was called by Hui. A third J♠ landed on the turn and Vankeuren bet 300,000. Hui called.

The 9♦ completed the board and Vankeuren announced pot, which got a fold from Hui who revealed he had pocket aces.

Vankeuren responded, "That is a pretty sick fold!" Vankeuren is in contention for the bracelet.
