Early in Level 1, Alfie Adam laid down his pocket aces to Albert Daher on the turn when the action got a bit heavy for a one-pair hand. It was a policy he would reverse in Level 2 with disastrous results.

Adam held aces again in a pot against Daher with three spades on the flop and a lot of heavy betting. The chips went in the middle with Adam calling for his tournament life on a non-spade turn card with Daher holding {a-Spades}{j-}.

A spade on the river gave Daher the winning flush to felt Adam and another pile of chips was pushed to Daher.
