Action was picked up on the turn in a blind-on-blind battle between Philip Neumann from the small blind and Douglas Dossett in the big blind.
With the board reading Q♥7♣3♥6♦, Neumann led for 50,000 into a pot of 140,000. After a long tank, Dossett raised to 250,000 effective to put Neumann all-in. Four minutes would roll off the clock before Neumann slid forward his stack to call.
Philip Neumann: Q♦J♦
Douglas Dossett: Q♣J♥
Both players held the same hand and the K♦ river was irrelevant as they chopped the pot.
Overheard from a tablemate, "I was 38 years old when this hand started and now I'm 39."

Vinny Chu jammed for 147,000 from the cutoff and Bill Murray snapped it off from the big blind with a slightly smaller stack of 135,000.
Bill Murray: K♥K♦
Vinny Chu: J♥J♣
Murray was primed for the double until the J♠3♠3♣ gave Chu top boat. Nothing changed on the Q♥2♠ runout as Murray hit the rail in brutal fashion.
