Ofer Peleg (pictured) raises from the hijack to 85,000, and James Gilbert calls from the big blind. The flop comes Spade ADiamond QDiamond 8, Gilbert checks, Peleg bets 125,000, and Gilbert calls.

The turn card pairs the board with the Club A, Gilbert checks, Peleg bets 350,000, and Gilbert calls.

The river card is the Spade 6, Gilbert checks, and Peleg moves all in for 600,000. Gilbert begins studying Peleg, and when Peleg notices this he covers his face with his hoodie. Shortly after that, Gilbert calls.

Peleg peeks out of his hoodie to confirm that Gilbert called, and he proudly says “Three aces” as he shows Heart AHeart 4.

But Gilbert quickly turns over Diamond AClub 10 for trip aces with a higher kicker, and Peleg is momentarily stunned as he is eliminated in 15th place.

James Gilbert  –  5,400,000  (135 bb)
