James Akenhead opened from the button and short stack Mikhail Drozdov, who had barely played any hand since the bubble burst, got his last few big blinds in from the big blind. Akenhead quickly called.

Mikhail Drozdov: {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}
James Akenhead: {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Despite picking up an additional flush draw, the board of {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{9-Clubs} bricked and Drozdov was sent to the payout desk.

Nathan Manuel then raised from the cutoff and David Urban called in the small blind. Matthew Ashton pushed from the big blind for around 100,000 and Manuel folded, Urban called.

Matthew Ashton: {K-Hearts}{4-Spades}
David Urban: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

The board came {Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and that was it for Ashton as well.
