A flop reading {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades} was dealt. Kornuth bet 19,000. Epstein folded. Foxen gave it some thought, then moved all in for 38,500. Patgorski and Perkins folded. Kornuth made the call.

Alex Foxen: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Chance Kornuth: {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Kornuth flopped a straight, but the {j-Spades} turn and {q-Diamonds} river completed the board, and Foxen made queens full of jacks to take down the pot.

Alex Epstein
Alex Epstein

On a {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} flop Dylan Wilkerson checked to Alex Epstein who put out 75,000.

"Damn," said Wilkerson who had 55,000 behind. "I was going to check-jam."

"That is still an option," said Epstein.

Eventually Wilkerson folded and Epstein showed {6-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

"You know, when you flop that strong..." he said as he moved over a million chips.

The flop {k-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts} gave Tsang top set and although the {j-Spades} gave Lamb a gutshot straight draw, the river was the {9-Clubs} and he was eliminated.
