Blake Purvis raises to 40,000 from late position and Amelio Amato shoves all-in for the second hand in a row. Purvis eyeballs Amato’s 243,000-chip stack for a second or two, then calls with [QcQs].

Amato trails with [As9d] and stays behind on the [8c7d3c] flop. The turn brings the [Ad] though, pairing up Amato to give him the advantage in the hand. 

The river is the [2d] and the aces take the pot.

Amelio Amato – 500,000 (31 BBs)
Blake Purvis – 443,000 (28 BBs)
