: 1,500/3,000, 300 ante
On a 
flop, Sam Vakili found himself all in holding 
against Ray E's 
.
The turn and river landed running aces to see Vakili collect the pot and leave Ray with just 3,075 in chips.
The following hand, Vakili doubled Ray up when his 
failed to improve against Ray's 
.
But on the third hand, Vakili's 
would be the better holding of the two on a board of 
as Ray's 
was unable to connect with enough power to keep him alive.
Vakili is the final player to advance to round two, and will be taking 85,025 into play.
