Demis Hassabis was down to 16,000, right at ten big blinds, when he open-shoved in early position. The table folded around to Elior Sion a few seats over, and he re-shoved all in over the top. Everyone else was scared off, and the cards were on their backs with Hassabis at risk.
Showdown
Hassabis: 
Sion: 
Hassabis stood from his chair and grabbed his coat, uttering a few hushed expletives under his breath. The flop came 
, and Hassabis put one arm into his coat just as the dealer plunked the 
down on fourth street. Stopped dead in his tracks, Hassabis pulled his arm back out of the sleeve and put his coat back over his seatback. The river 
ensured he'll be sticking around, now with twice as many chips as before. He's up to 35,000 now.
At an adjacent table, another aces-verus-small-pair hand played out immediately after. This time it was Wesley Pantling with the 
, and he was looking to knock off the 
of Dominic Wells. The aces held this time as the board ran 
, sending Wells out the door.
