Stein and Nishijima Move On

Level 3 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

The match between Sam Stein and Brandon Steven was relatively one sided with Stein winning most of the crucial pots. The match finally came to a head when the duo took a flop of {J-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Steven led out. Stein raised enough to put him all in and Steven called.

Steven: {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Stein: {J-Spades}{10-Spades}

Stein's jacks were ahead and he was able to fade the diamonds as the turn brought the {3-Clubs} and the river the {5-Spades}.

A few tables over, Thiago Nishijima became the next to move on when his pocket sixes outlived Ludovic Lacay's ace-queen after a preflop all in.
