Ben Lamb raised the button to 560,000 and Robert Cowen three-bet to 1,800,000 from the big blind with 2,735,000 behind. Lamb called to see a flop.
The flop came down 2♣8♦5♥ and Cowen immediately jammed. Lamb quickly made the call to put Cowen at risk.
Robert Cowen: A♦A♣5♣4♠
Ben Lamb: K♥9♠7♠6♥
Cowen had aces, but Lamb had a wrap and a lot of cards he could hit to send Cowen home. The A♠ appeared on the turn to improve Cowen to a set, keeping him in the lead. However, the river was the 6♣, giving Lamb the nut straight. The pot was sent to Lamb, and Cowen headed to the cashier's desk to collect his fourth-place payout.
