Eddie Blumenthal: XxXx/9♦K♥K♣10♥/Xx
Yong Wang: XxXx/7♣5♣J♦7♦/Xx
Bruno Fitoussi: XxXx/2♠7♠J♥A♠/Xx
The action was caught when Eddie Blumenthal bet out with a pair of kings on his board on sixth street. Yong Wang made the call with open sevens before Bruno Fitoussi made a raise. Both opponents called and each player received their final card.
Blumenthal and Wang now checked to Fitoussi, who put in another bet. Blumenthal called but Wang laid his hand down. Fitoussi showed K♠6♦4♠ for a flush and a seven-low.
"So sick", muttered Blumenthal, who flashed the K♦ before passing his cards to the dealer. This pot elevated Fitoussi's stack to over one million chips as he is now leading the final 15 players.
