river completed the board, and Weng stayed ahead to eliminate both players.

Michael Evans had gotten his 48,800 chips in preflop from early position against a player in the cutoff.
Opponent:
Michael Evans: 
It was the classic flip as the dealer spread the 
flop to improve Evans to top set. He still needed to fade a ten which would improve his opponent to Broadway, and the and 
harmlessly completed the board to confirm the result. A count confirmed Evans slightly covered his opponent and he moved up to nearly a six-figure stack with the pot.
