Jeff Madsen opened to 60,000 in early position and Yusei Iyama three-bet to 150,000 in the hijack. The action was back on Madsen who four-bet shoved all in for around 650,000. Iyama instantly called and the cards were on their backs.
Jeff Madsen: A♥K♥
Yusei Iyama: Q♣Q♦
Another classic flip and once again, the pocket queens held up on the J♦7♣4♣8♣4♦ runout to eliminate Madsen. With Ryan Franklin being eliminated during the same hand during the soft hand-for-hand process, the players chopped the payouts and will each receive $7,595.
