Action started on the button as no one else seemed to want to play, and he raised it to 2,700. Benjamin Vinson in the small blind reraised and made it 5,600. After the big blind folded it was back on the button who moved all in for around 37,000. Vinson made the call and the table got to see the cards.

Vinson: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Button: {A-Spades}{5-Spades}

{J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} all made an appearance on the flop and it was Vinson's pair of nines that were ahead against his opponent's pair of fives. A {4-Clubs} put out any hopes of a run run flush draw for Vinson's opponent, and a river {10-Diamonds} sealed the deal as Vinson knocked out a player.
