Level 16: 1,500/3,000 with a 500 ante
Players Remaining: 12 of 100

Event 6 was playing fast and had only 14 players after the last break with 12 getting paid. It took most of Level 16 to get them there thanks to a money bubble slowdown.

After a half dozen rounds of hand-for-hand action, there was a four-way pot to a flop. An early position player moved all in for 48,000 and Matthew Zarcadoolas shipped all in for a slightly bigger stack from the button. Not to be left behind, the small blind player called both shoves for the three-way all-in.

Early Position:
Zarcadoolas:
Small Blind:

The aces were ahead for a triple up and the turn changed nothing. The small blind was calling for a heart, Zarcadoolas asked for a jack, neither request was met. But Zarcadoolas did pick up the river for two pair to top the rockets, nearly triple up, and put Event 6 into the money.
