Action was recapped by the table as Rodney Spriggs was seen getting up from the table and exiting the tournament area.

On a board reading 3♣9♣4♠J♠, and a massive pot already built, Clayton Soliz checked out of position to Spriggs who bet 50,000 which Soliz called.

On the 2♠ river, Soliz checked once more and Spriggs bet 80,000. Soliz moved all in for 150,000, having Spriggs covered and Spriggs called.

Rodney Spriggs: J♥J♣
Clayton Soliz: A♠Q♠

Spriggs had turned top set, but it was rendered second best on the river with Soliz' nut flush. Spriggs exited the area while Soliz stacked up a massive pot.
