Lin An opened to 6,500 in middle position, with Christopher Caruso calling in the cutoff and Ian Crampton defending his big blind.
Crampton checked the 4♠K♥K♦ flop, with An checking behind. Caruso fired a bet of 14,000, resulting in a fold by Crampton and a call from An.
Both players then checked the Q♥ turn and the dealer revealed the J♥ river. An checked to Caruso, who did not take long to check behind.
An tabled K♠10♣ for trip kings, good enough to take down the pot as Caruso mucked.

Andrew Defrancesco opened to 10,000 from early position before Kesuo Fan moved his short stack of 32,500 into the middle. Brent Vaalburg made the call, with Defrancesco taking some time before also sliding in the call.
Defrancesco checked the 6♠3♦Q♥ flop, folding after Vaalburg fired a bet of 20,000. That left Fan at risk heads up as the cards were revealed.
Kesuo Fan: A♥K♣
Brent Vaalburg: A♠A♥
Fan bowed his head after seeing Vaalburg's pocket aces, with the 4♠ turn and 6♣ sealing his fate.
