William Kerkaert Eliminated in 13th Place ($39,786)

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
William Kerkaert
William Kerkaert

William Kerkaert raised to 175,000 in the cutoff. Sam Soverel responded with a three-bet to 575,000 in the small blind, which Kerkaert called.

Soverel then potted the 1054 flop for 1,250,000. Kerkaert went all in for only a little more, and Soverel snap-called with the covering stack.

William Kerkaert: AAQ75 All in
Sam Soverel: AA963

Both players had aces, but Soverel had the better low draw and better flush draw.

The Q turn upgraded Kerkaert to two pair to take the lead, but Soverel's nut flush completed on the 6 river to send the Day 1 chipleader out in 13th place.
