Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Kirk Acevedo made it 57,000 under the gun and Frank Katana called before Tyler Gardner shoved in from the big blind for some 200,000 more.
Both players called and the flop came down 
. Acevedo led into the dry side pot for 140,000 and Katana called. The turn came the 
and after Acevedo checked, Katana took the lead, betting 200,000.
Out of his chair at the time, Acevedo announced he was all in. After a minute in the tank, Katana mucked. Acevedo rolled over 
having flopped a set. Gardner had 
and was drawing dead.
Following a meaningless river card, the massive pot was pushed to Acevedo and he grabbed the chip lead as the first player up to two million in chips.
With 20 left they just redrew for seats at the final two tables.
