JP Kelly had already moved in uncontested before his second jam was called my Michael Kaufman. When the hands were overturned JP Kelly had quite a lot of work to do.

The flop 
gave Kelly a gut-shot and the crowd was going crazy. The turn was the 
and finally the river was 
and Kelly was crippled once more - down to 10,000!
JP Kelly was all-in for just around 12,000 chips when he got action from Jacob Bazeley. Richard Park decided to move all-in and that was too rich for Bazeley. We went heads up to showdown.

The board ran out

Andrew Badecker raised from the button and Ryan Schmidt defended the big blind. The flop was 
and Schmidt check-called a 60,000 Badecker bet. On the turn there was yet another spade 
and the same action ensued; this time for 142,00. The fifth and final card created a clean sweep of spades - - and a 420,000 Badecker bet forced Smith off the pot.
Vanessa Selbst raised to 43,000 in early position and Abdyl Konjuhi three-bet to 110,000 in the cutoff. The button and blinds folded and Selbst went into deep thought mode. After a few minutes she cleared her head and four-bet to 263,000. Back to Konjuhi who had his chin wedged in his hands and he folded his hand.
Ryan Schmidt raised to 52,000 in the cutoff and Vanessa Selbst made the call from the big blind. Our dealer gave us a flop of 
and both players checked. Fourth street brought the into play and Selbst brought out the check-raise for 194,000, after Schmidt had bet 43,000. Back to Schmidt and after a few seconds thought he folded his hand.
Jacob Bazeley raised to 50,000 and Vanessa Selbst called from the small blind. The flop came down 
and Selbst lead out for 54,000 to take down the pot. Another one for Selbst who's doing great so far at this final table hunting down her second WSOP bracelet.
