- folded fourth street
Joe Hachem: / - folded bring-in

Sixth street saw Watson pick up a jack and take over the betting lead. He did just that with Ashby now calling.
Watson bet again on seventh and Ashby called, revealing that both players had missed lows, but ended up with two pair.
Ashby's eights and fives took the pot over Watson's fours and threes.

Joe Hachem: 
/
Mike Watson: //
Richard Ashby 
/
Action picked up heading to fourth street with Joe Hachem all in and Mike Watson and Richard Ashby trying to knock him out. On fourth, fifth, and sixth streets, Watson bet and Ashby called all three streets while Hachem watched on.
On seventh, Watson slowed down and checked. Ashby went for the bet and Watson called.
Ashby showed his two pair which was good enough to beat Watson. It wasn't good enough to eliminate Hachem, who showed the better two pair for the full triple.
