Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The hand with Aladin Reskallah was picked up on the turn with the board showing and a player in the big blind checked.

Reskallah bet 15,000 and the big blind quickly called. The river was and the big blind led out with a bet of 80,000.

Reskallah tanked briefly before going all-in for about 100,000. The big blind quickly mucked not calling the extra 20,000 in the pot of already 180,000 and Reskallah scooped in the massive pot without a showdown.

Nível 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Johnnie Moreno was left with about five big blinds when it folded around to him in the small blind and he went all-in. The big blind called the 14,000 to put Moreno at risk for his tournament life.

Big Blind:

Moreno needed to catch one of his live cards because his opponent also had hearts and the board would run out giving Moreno a nine on the flop to win the pot.
