    In the late stages of level 14, Ardavan Yazdi opened the action to 160K from under the gun and was called by Lu Zhang, in the cut-off, before Kevin Rivest made a raise from the button to 500K. Both Yazdi and Zhang made the call, building a big pot before the 5 of Clubs 8 of Hearts 8 of Clubs flop hit the table. The action checked to Rivest who continued for 750K. Yazdi got out of the way before Zhang raised all-in for 2.9M. Rivest scanned the tournament board and quickly counted his remaining stack before deciding that he had too much invested in the pot to give up so he made the call with Ace of Clubs Queen of Diamonds. Zhang quietly opened Ace of Diamonds 5 of Diamonds, for a pair and the lead. The 9 of Clubs on the turn gave Rivest some more outs, and the Jack of Clubs on the river gave him the nuts. And just like that he added a few million more chips to his stack.

    Kevin Rivest
