Aaron Sacks: A♦K♣J♣7♠2♦ All in
George Parublev: A♣9♠4♦3♥3♠

The board ran out 6♠10♠2♠9♣2♣ to improve Parublev to a flush with no qualifying low hand, thus felting Sacks in 13th place.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

The action was caught on a turn of 9♣9♠7♠6♥, where George Parublev made a bet of 75,000 from the big blind. His opponent was Michael Rocco in the hijack, who made the call.

On the 4♥ river, Parublev bet 150,000 chips before Rocco announced a pot-sized raise to 740,000, putting his opponent all in. Parublev thought it over for a few moments before announcing a call for his tournament life.

Rocco tabled A♠Q♠10♥5♥3♣ for the second nut low, while Parublev showed down A♦9♦8♣5♠3♦ for the same low and a straight to go with it. He was awarded three-quarters of the pot, ending up with a seven-figure stack.

On the flop of A♦A♣J♣, Jattin bet 65,000 which Atamian called.

Jattin check-called a bet of 120,000 on the turn 10♠ from Atamian and both players checked the 6♦ river.

Jattin turned over A♥10♦9♦7♥2♦ for aces full of tens and he took down the pot.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Michael Rocco limped from under the gun before George Parublev raised to 105,000 on the button. Danny Wong called in the big blind as did Rocco to generate three-way action heading to the flop.

The flop came 7♣8♠K♠, prompting Wong to move all in for 300,000. Rocco jammed and Parublev called off to setup a massive pot.

Danny Wong: A♠K♣10♦4♣3♠ All in
George Parublev: A♦9♥6♥3♣2♦ All in
Michael Rocco: A♥6♦5♠5♣2♠

The turn and river came 3♥A♣ with Wong taking the high half of the main pot with top two while Rocco took the low half of the main and side pot. Parublev, meanwhile, was left with just the high half of the side pot.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Aaron Sacks limped in from under the gun, Dylan Weisman completed his small blind, and George Parublev checked his option in the big blind.

A flop of J♣10♣Q♣ then hit the table, where the action was checked to Sacks. Sacks made the minimum bet of 40,000 chips and was called by both of his opponents.

On the 5♣ turn, Sacks raised the stakes to 110,000 chips. This time, both Weisman and Parublev mucked their hands. Sacks tabled 4♥3♦2♠2♦, showing that he could not have had a flush.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Philip Shing called in the hijack which saw action fold to the small blind where Farid Jattin potted, prompting Shing to move all in for 670,000 which Jattin called.

Philip Shing: A♣A♠J♦10♣8♣ All in
Farid Jattin: A♦K♥Q♦Q♣3♠

The board ran out 10♥5♥3♣2♣J♠ and the jacks and tens for high and eight-low were good for Shing to secure the double up at the expense of Jattin.

Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Alfred Atamian raised to 90,000 under the gun and Anson Tsang pushed in his stack of 250,000 from the next seat over. The action folded back to Atamian, who made the call to put Tsang at risk.

Anson Tsang: A♥K♠Q♣2♠2♣ All in
Alfred Atamian: A♠5♠5♥4♦3♦

Tsang flopped a set on the 2♦K♦J♥ board, but the A♣ turn brought Atamian a wheel draw in addition to his flopped flush draw. The 3♣ river indeed made him the nut low and a straight to the five, wheeling out Tsang in 14th place.
