Xixiang Luo raised on the button and Michael Falk three-bet to put Luo all in for 5,000 more from the big blind. Luo called.

Falk drew two on every round while Luo drew two, then one, then one.

Xixiang Luo: 8♣6♠A♥ All in
Michael Falk: 4♥2♦

Falk turned over the Q♦ followed by the A♦ while Luo peeled the 2♥ — leaving him best with a three-card eight for the double up.
