Nível 31 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Mark Buckley raised to 325,000 on the button before Joni Rantamaki shoved from the big blind with the covering stack. Buckley had 4,300,000 behind and snap-called.

Mark Buckley: K♠K♥ All in
Joni Rantamaki: A♦3♣

If Rantamak could find an ace to crack the kings of Buckley, he would go into heads-up with around ninety percent of the chips in play. However, the board didn't contain an ace as it came J♥J♠7♣5♦4♣, and now Buckley became the chip leader of the tournament.

Nível 31 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Mark Buckley shoved from the cutoff for 3,005,000. When it folded to Sean Hegarty in the big blind, he took one look at his cards and flicked in the call to put Buckley at risk.

Mark Buckley: A♣5♥ All in
Sean Hegarty: A♥K♠

Buckley was dominated and looked poised to be headed for the rail. The 10♥6♥4♠ didn't change anything but Buckley did have some backdoor draws. The 2♣ turn gave him a gutshot, but the 5♦ river improved Buckley to a pair of fives. Buckley doubled up while Hegarty was left as the table short-stack.
