Ren Lin min-raised under the gun to 120,000, Thomas Boivin reraised from the cutoff to 300,000, and Eli Berg moved all in from the big blind for 725,000.

Lin folded, and Boivin thought for a while before he called with Ad3d. Berg turned over AhKs, and needed it to hold to stay alive.

The board came Jh9d8c7hAc, and Berg won the pot with a pair of aces and his king kicker to double up in chips.

Eli Berg  –  1,660,000  (28 bb)
Thomas Boivin  –  1,390,000  (23 bb)

With five players remaining, the average chip stack is around 2,100,000 (35 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $140,000 each.
