Leo Kaplin opened to 10,000 and after Andy Stover called, Matt Marcinkiewicz bumped it to 30,000. Only Stover called and they went heads up to a 
flop.
Stover made it 30,000 and Marcinkiewicz raised to 75,000. Stover called and the turn brought the 
. Stover led for 65,000 and Marcinkiewicz shipped it in for a little more.
Holding the 
open-ender and a flush draw, Stover called, but he would need to hit against Marcinkiewicz' 
trips. He didn't. The river came the 
and the pot was pushed to Marcinkiewicz.
Marcinkiewicz now climbs up close to the top spot on the leaderboard with Stover falling awful fast.
In the meantime, Blake Napierala found a flush and an opponent willing to bluff into him for heaps. Napierala now has a contending stack as well.
