Kunal Patni was all in for his last few big blinds and had been called by two opponents.
The action was checked to the river on a 9♦K♣9♠3♣A♣ board where a bet of 14,000 chips forced the second opponent out of the hand.
Patni showed Q♠J♣ for just queen-high but was eliminated by the A♠8♠ of his opponent.

Jeff Lennon raised from under the gun to 3,500 and got a call from the button. The big blind then three-bet to 17,000, and only Lennon called.
The flop came 5♥5♣8♥ and the big blind continued for 13,000. Lennon then raised to 33,000, which got the big blind to reluctantly fold.
"Do you want to see it or not?" asked Lennon to the table.
The answer seemed to be yes as Lennon tabled 10♠9♠ for a complete bluff.
"It's getting late," remarked Lennon as he was pushed the pot.
