Nível 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Clement Richez raised from under the gun to 20,000 and got a call from the hijack. Patrick Leonard three-bet to 68,000 and Richez moved all in for around 190,000. The hijack took some time, and eventually folded, but Leonard threw a chip straight into the pot to make the call.

Clement Richez: A♥A♦ All in
Patrick Leonard: A♠K♥

Richez was looking good with Aces, but the 9♣10♥Q♦ flop brought in the sweat of a gutshot for Leonard.

The 8♦ and 7♦ came in to complete the board, and Richez held with his pocket pair to stay alive and get the double.
