On a flop of {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

, Sol Mammon bet out and Joe De Niro raised enough to put Mammon all in. Mammon made the call.

De Niro: {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{5-Hearts}

Mammon:

{A-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

The turn fell the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

, helping neither player. The river card of the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

gave De Niro the table win and will propel him to the final table.

De Niro will be the first player to advance to the final table today. He will have a long wait as all the other tables still have to play down to a winner.
