In four way action to the 10♦7♦6♣3♦ turn, Bryan Micon bet in the cutoff and Thomas Stinson check-called in the small blind while the other two players folded. The duo then checked the 10♥ on the river and Micon tabled his A♠K♦6♥4♣. Stinson exposed his A♣K♣J♠4♦ and they chopped it up for both the high and low.

Todd Brenn: XxXx / K♣J♣10♠9♣ / Xx
Frederik Brink check-called on fifth and sixth street with his open pair of fives versus Todd Brenn. He then check-called seventh and Brenn briefly flashed his cards but had missed his straight draw for Brink to win the pot.

Pedro Zuccarato: 10♥8♥2♥ / 5♥7♣J♠A♥
