Eric Hicks opened from the cutoff, Griffin Benger three-bet shoved 400,000 from the big blind and Hicks called.

Griffin Benger: {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Eric Hicks: {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The {8-Clubs}{2-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} board proved of no help to Benger, making him the first player to snatch the payjump to $19,280.

"Does anyone of you have a bracelet?" Hicks asked his tablemates, receiving nothing but crickets.

"Man, if I win a bracelet I'm gonna wear it every day," he smiled, pointing at his empty wrist.
