A completed board of {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} was spread across the table with just under 20,000 in the middle. Doug Polk checked to Joe Cada who tanked for a minute before shoving all in for 25,600. Polk snap-called and turned over {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a full house.

Cada had a look of surprise on his face as he flashed the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. "I was betting for value," Cada said. Polk will be moving on to the next round while Cada will have to look for another bracelet on another day.
