Level 13 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

With the board reading {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}, Calen McNeil was already all in and at risk. Sidepot action was brewing between Dustin Dirksen and James Obst, with action on the latter. Obst bet, Dirksen check-raised, and Obst called.

On the {5-Clubs} river, Dirksen bet and Obst called, leaving himself with a mere 1,500 behind.

Dirksen showed {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for kings full of fives to win the whole pot, as no low was possible. McNeil showed {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and was eliminated. Obst mucked as well.

Shortly after, Obst lost those final chips to Dirsken as well and headed for the rail too.
