Tough Run for Tan; Baoukian Runs Pure
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Christopher Baoukian open jammed in early position for 27,000 before the action folded to Alexander Tan in the small blind who flicked in a call and the big blind folded.
Christopher Baoukian: A?A? 
Alexander Tan: 8?8?
The full board ran out 10?2?K?A?J? and Baoukian earned the pure double with the rockets.
The very next there was a middle position limp followed by Tan jamming the button for his last 13,000. Baoukian was in the big blind and rejammed. The remaining players folded and it was the same players heads up, two hands in a row.
Alexander Tan: A?J?
Christopher Baoukian: K?Q?
The full board ran out 4?2?K?10?5? and in just two hands, Tan hit the rail and Baoukian built himself a workable stack.
