Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Matt Hyman

The preflop action escaped us, but we do know that Matt Hyman got his stack of 144,500 all in preflop against Brandon Adams, who recently worked his stack of 18,000 up to over 200K.

Adams: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Hyman: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

It was the epitome of a race, and Hyman was looking to hold to score the double. The ladies showed him some love as they held after the board ran out {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.
