Jesse Martin bet from the button before the final draw and faced a check-raise by the small blind. Martin called and drew with his opponent standing pat. Martin called a bet on the end but couldn't beat {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

The next hand, Martin three-bet an open and went heads up with the small blind to the first draw. The small blind took one and Martin two. The small blind grabbed the lead with a bet and Martin called. Both players drew one and the small blind slowed down with a check. Martin bet and the small blind called. Draws repeated.

The end checked through and the small blind announced a three-card. Martin turned over the nut three-card with {3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{a-Spades} as well as the {8-Diamonds}.

At the next table over, Daniel Strelitz went bust. Dan Zack made his way back into the room to fire a reentry.
