An Early Six-Bet Jam from Obara
Jun Obara and Tien Dung Pham got into a raising war early in the day at Table 2 that began with Obara opening from the cutoff. Pham then three-bet to 3,000 from the small blind and Obara responded with a four-bet to 7,800.
Pham wasn't having any of that and put in a five-bet to 18,000, which the dealer initially thought was a call and she began collecting the pot before the table informed her of the raise. Obara wasted no time six-bet jamming with a stack of about 45,000 and Pham called after a few seconds.
Jun Obara: 
Tien Dung Pham: 
No, it wasn't aces over kings, but instead a fair fight between nines and ace-king. Obara took the lead when the flop came 
to pair his ace and he improved to Broadway on the 
runout to earn him the double, while Pham was left with a short stack during the first level of play.
