On the last hand of the night, Philip Sternheimer raised to 120,000 in the small blind and Ryan Hoenig called in the big blind.
Sternheimer continued for 125,000 on the 9♠3♣2♠ flop and Hoenig called. The turn was the 5♥ and Sternheimer bet another 275,000. Hoenig again called.
The river was the 8♥ and Sternheimer bet 500,000. Hoenig let out a loud sigh as he went deep into the tank. "I trapped on the flop," Hoenig said.
"I'll show you. I'll let you squeeze my cards," Sternheimer told him.
"Are you a nice guy, Phil? You seem like a nice guy," Hoenig added.
"I hope you make the wrong decision," Sternheimer replied.
"Life is good either way," Hoenig said as he called.
"Can I squeeze your cards? Because I have a set too," Sternheimer asked, grabbing Hoenig's cards. He eventually exposed Hoenig's A♣5♣5♦3♦ and mucked his own cards as Hoenig ended the night with a monster pot.
The remaining three players are bagging up their chips for the night.
