With the blinds at 1.5K/3K, the action was opened by Ian Monahoyios to 6.5K, and he picked up three callers before the action got to Yan Gohier in the big blind. Gohier took this opportunity to raise it up to 22K, sending the action back to the initial raiser. Not to be deterred, Monahoyios quickly raised all in for roughly 100K. To everyone’s surprise, the first caller of the initial bet, Aaron Shepard, also raised all in for 142K. This brought about a series of snap folds until the action got back to Gohier, who went deep into the tank. Gohier eventually found the fold button, and hands were tabled.

Ace-high was good enough to take this one down, vaulting Monahoyios up the leader board in dramatic fashion.
