Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante

Jonathan Dwek raised to 225,000 from the cutoff and Thissa de Silva moved all in from the big blind. Dwek quickly called with {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, and De Silva was racing with the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}. The flop of {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} kept Dwek in the lead, and though the turn and river were both paint cards, they were the {J-Clubs} and {J-Spades}.

Dwek is up to 11 million after that hand while De Silve has been eliminated in 66th place for $101,444.
