Nghia Le raised preflop from the hijack to open the action. Two players called - Bradley Smith from the button and Philip Sternheimer from the big blind.
The flop came 6♥2♦K♠, and Sternheimer checked. Le bet, with both of his opponents calling.
The 5♥ turn saw action checked to Smith, who bet. Le and Sternheimer remained in.
The 10♦ river followed the same line - Smith bet, with Le and Sternheimer both check-calling to get to showdown.
Smith showed A♣Q♣9♠3♦ for a six-five. Sternheimer turned over K♦J♣10♠6♠ for two pair, kings and tens. Le was the one to take down the high side, though, showing K♣K♥J♠10♣ for a set of kings.
