Yuval Bronshtein raised from middle position to 45,000 (leaving himself just 20K behind), and Dapo Ajayi moved all in from the button. Cherish Andrews tanked for a while before folding her big blind, then Bronshtein quickly called all in for 65,000 with AdKs.

Ajayi turned over AsQd, and Bronshtein needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The board came 8s6h4cKh6c, and Bronshtein won the pot with two pair, kings and sixes, to double up in chips.

Yuval Bronshtein  –  155,000  (16 bb)
Dapo Ajayi  –  600,000  (60 bb)

With about 117 players remaining from a field of 1,180, the average chip stack is about 403,000 (40 big blinds). The field is in the money, with the remaining players guaranteed at least $10,495 each.

Action will continue tonight until the end of Level 20 (about 12:20 am).
