Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Pierre-Alexandre Lessard opened from middle position to 1,500 and Brandon Mitchell three-bet to 4,000. Eric Berman flatted from the big blind and action was back on Lessard.

Lessard took a little pause before four-betting to 14,000 and Mitchell made a quick five-bet for 25,000. Berman mucked his hand and Lessard took some time before six-bet jamming, covering Mitchell's remaining 63,500 stack.

Mitchell sat and deliberated his decision before opting to muck his hand. After the hand Mitchell shared with the table he had, "ace-king," before asking Lessard, "same hand?"

Lessard replied, "I don't think so," and continued to suggest that he had, "queens."
