Stead: runs good!

Kerry Stead has just eliminated Paul Birman and Michael Pugh simultaneously to move up to 19,000 in chips.

Birman raised all-in blind from under the gun for 1,800 and the action folded around to Stead who reraised from the cutoff. Pugh four-bet it from the cutoff and Stead called to go heads-up with Pugh into a sidepot on a flop of {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{a-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

.

Kerry check-raised after Pugh opened; Pugh called then moved all in after Kerry led out on the turn of the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

.

Stead called, rolling up {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

for a flopped set of sixes, well ahead of the {a-Clubs}

{a-Clubs}

{j-Hearts}

of Pugh. Birman turned up his hand and showed {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

.

The river was a useless {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

and Stead's hand was good to take the pot down and both players out.
