With the completed board showing J♠9♣7♦6♦J♦, Terry Fleischer was getting up from his seat as John Morgan was collecting all of his chips.
Fleischer held A♦4♦ for the nut flush, but it was no good as Morgan had tabled J♥J♣ for quad jacks to add to his sizable stack early in the day.

Eric Schaeffer raised the cutoff, Brian Thomas called in the small blind, and Jeremy Becker defended the big blind.
The flop landed K♥4♥2♣ and the blinds checked to Schaeffer who bet 2,000. Thomas check-raised to 5,200, Becker folded, and Schaeffer called.
The 10♠ fell on the turn and Thomas bet 8,000. Schaeffer called.
The J♣ completed the board and Thomas moved all in for 16,000. Schaeffer briefly thought about it and called.
Thomas showed Q♥J♥ for a pair of jacks, but it was no good as Schaeffer tabled K♣10♣ for two pair to claim the pot and eliminate Thomas.

There were a lot of ways for players in New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania to win their way to the North American Poker Tour in Las Vegas and it's finally time for players to convert their opportunity into big bucks.
Calvin Kelleher, Sridhar Sangannagari, and Barrett Lipkin are among those qualifiers in Las Vegas who are vying for a share of the $1,500,000 guarantee.
Kelleher and Sangannagari are from New Jersey and Lipkin hails from Pennsylvania. Sangannagari has just over $1,000,000 in career earnings, according to the Hendon Mob, and he recently finished in second place in the $600 NLH/PLO mix at the 2023 WSOP. Lipkin is a WSOP circuit ring winner and Kelleher is looking for his first major accolade.
