James Brashear opened to 40,000 from the hijack, and Christopher Borinsky called in the cutoff. Benjamin Purer came along on the button, and Adam Thomas did the same in the small blind. Jake Buchbaum defended his big blind, and Thomas checked the Q♠J♥10♥ flop.
Buchbaum moved all in for 246,000, with Brashear and Borinsky getting out of the way. Purer announced a call and began to turn over his hand. Thomas had yet to act, indicating he saw one of Purer's cards and made the call.
Thomas checked again on the K♠ turn, and Purer moved all in. Thomas let his hand go, leaving Buchbaum at risk heads up.
