J♠10♠5♣10♣6♣
8♣6♠10♥Q♦A♣
Seven players placed in their 10,000 ante to see two flops, and over half of them ended up with their stacks in the middle. Once they had been dealt, Ryan Haas wasted no time in open-shoving his remaining 52,000 into the middle, as the first player to act. Rick Ngo then announced "pot", and the dealer told him to place in 226,000. Jacob Baumgartner made the call, and Alessandro De Michele decided he also wanted some of the action, as he went all in for 70,000, and the players were off to a turn.
After a check from Ngo, Baumgartner shoved to put him at risk, and Ngo called, making him the fourth player to be playing for it all in this hand. Showdown took place once the completed boards were out, and the first pot to be decided was that between Ngo and Baumgartner, as the latter tabled K♠Q♣J♥9♠ for the scoop against Q♠7♠9♦3♥. His pair of jacks was good enough on top as Ngo's draws had missed, and he went runner-runner for Broadway on the bottom board, rendering Ngo's flopped straight irrelevant; sending him home and awarding the lion's share of the pot to Baumgartner
It was then De Michele's turn to table his cards, as he had K♣9♣7♣7♥. Unable to match Baumgartner's Broadway, he split the sidepot with him after backing into a king-high flush on the top board.
A third chop was in order, as Haas froze De Michele out of the final pot as his 5♥5♦4♥3♠ meant his boat also split a pot with Broadway
