A player in early position checked behind to put action on David Levy, who bet 2,600 from the hijack. Rory Hayes was the last player in the hand and folded from the button, as did the small blind.

Action was then back on Garshofsky, who check-raised to 9,000. The early-position player folded and Levy called, leaving two players in contention for the pot.

The turn fell and Garshofsky continued, betting another 10,000. Levy looked at his stack, counting out some of the chips from his tall stack of T100 chips. He then slid his cards forward from the five-seat to the center of the table for the dealer to muck, resulting in the pot being sent to Garshofsky.
