On fifth street, Hildebrand's board displayed a pair of aces and action checked through to sixth street where fireworks began to ignite. Hildebrand bet, Weisman raised only for Hildebrand to put in the three-bet. Weisman called, setting up a massive pot between the two big stacks.

On seventh street, Hildebrand bet and was snap-called. Hildebrand tabled his hand and had trip aces, but Weisman had jacks full of sevens to scoop.
