Xiangnan Meng raised to 22,000 in middle position and Gavin three-bet to 80,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Meng four-bet shoved all in. Gavin quickly called off his stack of 260,000 and the cards were tabled.
Gavin: A♦Q♦
Xiangnan Meng: A♠J♠
The flop came J♣10♦8♣ and Meng took the lead with a pair of jacks. Gavin still had plenty of outs but the 4♠ on the turn was not one of them. However, the Q♠ on the river was and Gavin managed to score a double up after countless trips to the registration desk throughout this event.
