Lopez at 185,000

Carlos Lopez recently chipped up and won a pot that was the result of Terry Patten having been eliminated. According to Lopez, he raised to 6,500 and Patten called on his direct left. The player on Patten's left three-bet to 16,500 and Lopez four-bet to 32,000. Patten called all in for his last 31,000 or so and the other player called as well, giving Patten a chance to triple up and taking future action to a side pot.

The flop came and Lopez shoved all in, getting a fold from his opponent.

Patten was in need of a non-diamond four to chop or running jacks to triple up. Luck was not on his side, however, as the board ran out clean and he was eliminated from the tournament.
