Level 41
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Simon Britton and Jordan Johnson found themselves in a battle of the blinds.
Britton, who was in the small blind and covered Johnson, announced an all-in bet, which would put Johnson at risk with a call.
Johnson went in the tank for a brief period before making the call.
Jordan Johnson: A♣9♠
Simon Britton: 8♦6♣
The dealer placed 8♥5♣A♠ on the board, giving Johnson top pair and pairing Britton’s eight.
The A♥ on the turn sealed the hand for Johnson, and the Q♣ on the river didn’t change the outcome.

Stephen Winters opened from late position with 9♠8♥ to 7,500,000 and Quang Vu three-bet from the button with Q♠Q♦. Winters debated briefly before making the call.
The flop came out 6♥Q♣J♣ and Winters checked to Vu who bet 5,600,000. Winters, having flopped a gutshot, made the call. J♥ on the turn improved Vu's hand from a beast to a monster, giving him a full house. Winters checked and Vu bet 5,000,000. Winters decided to fold and Vu scooped a sizable pot.

: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Simon Britton raised 6,000,000 in early position with J♦10♦, and Stephen Winters called with 6♥6♣.
Action folded to Caleb Levesque, who was in the big blind and held K♣Q♦. Levesque, one of the short stacks at the final table, announced an all-in bet, which forced out Britton.
Winters, the chip leader, quickly called to put Levesque at risk.
The dealer fanned 3♠J♠2♣ on the flop, keeping Winters in the lead. The 9♠ appeared on the turn, giving Levesque a gutshot straight draw in addition to potentially pairing his king or queen on the river to keep him alive.
The 9♦ on the river, though, gave Winters the winning hand with two pair. Levesque exited in ninth place for a payout of $41,337.

Alain Macabulos decided to make his stand in late position by moving all in for his remaining 17,000,000.
But he ran into Simon Britton, who promptly three-bet on the button to 35,000,000. The two players in the blinds immediately folded and the cards were tabled.
Alain Macabulos: K♥Q♠
Simon Britton: A♥A♣
“Hold for me,” Britton exclaimed after he tabled his hand.
The dealer fanned 10♠J♣3♣ on the flop, giving Macabulos an open-ended straight draw. But Britton’s aces would hold after the dealer placed 6♣ on the turn and K♦ on the river.
Macabulos exited in 11th place with a payout of $32,680.
