Brunson bet after the first two draws then called a bet on the third. Alstyne declared a pair of sixes and Brunson showed .
Next hand saw Brunson call Joe Serock's bet. Both drew two and Brunson then bet with a call following. Both then drew one card and Brunson check-called. On the final draw Brunson drew one again and Serock stood pat and bet after Brunson checked.
Brunson showed a pair of fours and then mucked.
Sheikh, Rattle And Roll

Joe Serock completed on third street, [Removed:163] raised, Serock reraised, and Sheikh called. The last of Sheikh's chips went in on fourth street and Serock called.
Serock was ahead with four cards to an eight low. Sheikh improved to a draw to a seven on fifth street while Serock paired his ace, but Serock made a jack-low on sixth while Sheikh hit a pair of fours. Serock improved to an 8-7 low on seventh street, Sheikh still drawing live and hoping to hit an ace, a three, or a six to make a better low. Sheikh's river card was a queen, however, sending the online legend home in 12th place.
