Level 31 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Brian Rast opened to 1,250,000 on the button with Q?10?5?3? and Ethan Cahn defended in the big blind holding A?K?7?4?.

Action checked through the K?J?6? flop to the A? turn at which point Cahn checked again. Rast fired off 2,000,000, receiving a call from Cahn.

Cahn checked once more after the river came 8?. Rast went for big value by pushing 5,400,000 into the middle. That sent Cahn into the tank but, with top two and plenty of missed draws on the board, he was unable to find the fold and could only watch as the majority of his stack was shipped over to Rast.

David Eldridge opened to 1,200,000 on the button holding J?10?7?7? and then called after Yang Wang three-bet to 3,800,000 out of the small blind with A?K?Q?5?.

Wang moved all in following the 10?J?6? flop and Eldridge snapped off with top two pair.

Yang Wang: A?K?Q?5? All in
David Eldridge: J?10?7?7?

Wang would need to make a straight to survive but the turn came J? to improve Eldridge to a full house, thus rendering the 6? river meaningless as Wang made his way to the payout desk in 4th place.
