Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Eli Elezra: 
/ 
(FOLD)
Matthew Ashton: / 
/
Will Thompson: / 
/
We reached the table on fifth street, where Thompson led out. Elezra immediately folded, and Ashton tanked for a bit before calling. When Ashton paired his ace on sixth, he opted to check, and Thompson checked behind.
Ashton bet out on seventh though, and Thompson made the call. Ashton showed the 
for aces and eights, then turned his two other cards over - 
. Thompson mucked his cards high enough so that only Ashton could see.
