Hand 1:
Jessie Baldwin raised to 1,300 from the small blind, and Jay Bishop, who won the very first HPT Ameristar Vicksburg Main Event held here in 2014 for $39,129, called in the big blind.
Baldwin bet 2,000 on a 
flop, and Bishop called.
Baldwin continued for 4,000 when the 
fell on the turn, and Bishop called again.
On the 
river, Baldwin emptied the clip with a bet of 13,000, and Bishop made a quick call. Baldwin could only muster up 
, while Bishop tabled 
for a pair of aces and the winner.
Hand 2:
A few hands later, Baldwin raised to 1,500 from the cutoff, and Bishop three-bet to 5,000 on the button. Baldwin called, leaving himself 4,600 behind.
Baldwin checked the 
flop, and Bishop bet enough to put Baldwin at risk for his last 4,600. Baldwin thought for a few moments, then tossed in his remaining chips.
Jessie Baldwin:
Jay Bishop: 
Bishop ended matters early when the 
gave him unbeatable trips, and Baldwin took his leave after the 
hit the river.
"I think you had his number," a tablemate told Bishop, who grinned as he collected the last of Baldwin's chips.
