Nick Becker
Nick Becker
Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Sebastian Mortelmans raised to 120,000 from early position, Christos Argyriadis flatted in the hijack, and Kevin Palmer three-bet to 720,000 on the button, leaving himself with 100,000 behind. Mortelmans folded and Argyriadis called.

The flop came 8♦A♥2♠, Argyriadis bet 100,000, and Palmer called.

Kevin Palmer: K♠K♥ All in
Christos Argyriadis: 8♣8♥

Palmer saw the bad news when the cards were tabled. The turn landed the 10♣ and the river fell the Q♦, ending his tournament run.
