Jeff Kandefer made it 150 from the button and after the small blind called, Peter DeSantis bumped it up to 725 from the big blind.

Both players called and the flop rolled out {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. DeSantis continued for 1,225, but Kandefer fired back with a raise to 2,500. The small blind folded, but DeSantis called.

The turn brought the {q-Hearts} and a check from DeSantis. Kandefer made it 3,000 and DeSantis called again. The action heated up even more on the {8-Hearts} river, as DeSantis made a rather large 8,000-chip bet. Kandefer called and when DeSantis showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, he turned over {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, dragging the pot with a flopped set.
