Big Slick Topples the Hooks

Julius Malzanini opened to 51,000 from under-the-gun only to be three-bet one seat over by Aymon Hata. Hata bumped it up to 108,000 but Yan Li wasn't having any of that. Li four-bet jammed, having both players covered.
Malzanini went into the tank for a moment before reluctantly letting it go. Hata grabbed a handful of chips and set them down in front of him, making a call for his tournament life.

Hata smashed the flop, taking a big lead with two pair. Li needed a jack or running cards to pause the clock on Day 4 but the turn —
and river —
were no help and Hata survived, vaulting up the chip counts.
