With the board showing Diamond KDiamond 8Spade 2Club 7 on the turn with more than 75,000 already in the pot, Alex Arsenault moves all in from the big blind for 61,600, and Aneris Adomkevicius asks for an exact count from the hijack before he goes into the tank for a long time. After a while, Adomkevicius asks, “You have two pair?” Arsenault remains silent.

Eventually, somebody calls for a clock, and Adomkevicius has 30 seconds to act or his hand will be declared dead. As the countdown is nearing its end, Adomkevicius calls with Diamond 7Diamond 6 for a pair of sevens with a diamond flush draw.

Arsenault turns over Heart 2Diamond 2 for a flopped set of deuces, and he needs his hand to hold to stay alive.

The river card is the Diamond 9, and Adomkevicius wins the pot with a diamond flush to eliminate Arsenault from Day 1B.

Aneris Adomkevicius  –  406,000
Alex Arsenault  –  Eliminated

After the hand, one of the players at the table describes the recent hot streak of Adomkevicius as he crosses the 400K mark: “That’s a supernova run right there.”
