Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Matthew Sabia
Matthew Sabia

Action folded to Matthew Sabia on the button, and he raised to 90,000, before the small blind Sarah Wasch three-bet to 300,000. The big blind folded, and Sabia made the call.

The flop came 5?10?10? and Sabia called a bet of 175,000 from Wasch.

After the Q? on the turn, Sabia called another bet from Wasch, this time for 450,000.

Wasch checked to Sabia after the river brought the 4?, and he bet out 730,000, leaving just 5,000 chips behind. Wasch thought over her decision before finding a fold, giving Sabia the massive pot.

Bin Weng Eliminated in 8th Place ($14,500)

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Bin Weng
Bin Weng

Alexander Wiggins opened to 80,000 from under the gun, and it folded to the small blind Bin Weng, who three-bet all in for 600,000. After the big blind folded, Wiggins sat in the tank, making a decision for the majority of his chips, but eventually found the call to put Weng at risk.

Bin Weng: A?2? All in
Alexander Wiggins: A?J?

As soon as Wiggins made the call, Weng said "I didn't see your open, I thought it was blind versus blind". It was an unfortunate mistake for Weng, who was dominated by the bigger ace of Wiggins. When the board ran out 5?J?8?A?K? Wiggins improved to two pair, aces and jacks and eliminated Weng in 8th place.

Matthew Sabia opened the action to 60,000 from the hijack, and when it folded to Charles Bryant on the button, he three-bet all in for 940,000. Both blinds folded, and Sabia made the call, to put himself at risk with his stack of 740,000.

Matthew Sabia: K?K? All in
Charles Bryant: 10?10?

Sabia was in a great spot to double with his pocket kings, and once the board ran out 6?K?8?6?J? he improved to a full house, kings full of sixes to double up.
