Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Oleksii Koiev raised it up in early position and Zhi Yi Ning stuck in a three-bet on the button. Florian Duta four-bet shoved all in for around 100,000 in the big blind which got Koiev to fold. Ning, however, quickly called to put Duta at risk.
Florian Duta:
Zhi Yi Ning:
Not only did Ning have the better pocket pair, but he also had both of the suits covered. The board ran out and Ning held with no sweat to claim a bounty and move into the chip lead.
