We arrived in time to see Dan "Wretchy" Martin and Brandon Steven involved in a hand on a flop of {5-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{A-Diamonds}. Martin led out and Steven came over the top with a raise. Martin three-bet to 4,750 only to have Steven ship all in over the top for what looked to be just under 20,000. Martin called and the hands were turned over.

Martin: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Steven: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

Both players flopped sets but Steven's jacks trumped the fives. The board finished with the {4-Spades} and the {K-Clubs}, allowing Steven's set to secure him a double up. He scooped the pot and brought his stack up to around 45,000. Martin, on the other hand, was left with just about 4,800. He was eliminated from play soon after.
