Action folded all the way to Matteo Cavelier in the small blind who limped. Olga Iermolcheva was in the big blind and checked her option.

The Q? landed on the turn and action quickly checked through.

The A? river landed and after a moment of thought Cavelier led for 200,000.

Without much thought Iermolcheva raised to 700,000. Cavelier snap called and Iermolcheva tabled 6?2?.

Cavelier mucked and Iermolcheva continued to chip up.

Zhou Gets Jaka Off the Hand

Level 39 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Faraz Jaka opened under the gun to 360,000. Multiple players thought long and hard about what action to take before it finally folded to Mo Zhou on the button who opted to do what no one else would. He put in the cold three-bet to 750,000.

It then folded back to Jaka who thought over his options but thought better of a jam and let his hand go.

Jaka still holds the chip lead.
