Craig Hartman and Nitesh Rawtani got all their chips in the middle on a flop of K♠4♠6♣.
Nitesh Rawtani: A♦3♠5♦10♣Q♠
Craig Hartman: K♥K♣6♦2♥2♣
Hartman was looking to hold with the nut high and it seemed he might get his wish when the 4♥ peeled, pairing the board and improving him to a full house.
Rawtani was in the need of help to get half and it came with the 7♣, giving him second nut low to keep him in contention.

PokerNews' Brad Whitehouse captured a hand on Saturday that might end up being the rarest we'll see all summer at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP). At the very least, the rarest chop pot.
Gus Hansen and Dzmitry Urbanovich battled for a hefty pot on Day 2 in Event #23: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship with 35 out of 127 players remaining. The pot ended in a chop, but it left future Poker Hall of Famer Nick Schulman in awe.
"I've never seen that before," Schulman, who has seen nearly everything at the poker table, was overheard saying as he glanced at the tabled cards. "Wow, that's an amazing one."
Leading the charge, Chad Schacht, a mixed-game player based out of the Pacific Northwest, has sent several opponents out of the tournament area to either re-enter or move on to the next event.

Allen Kessler went undrafted in the 25K Fantasy this year and, per some statements made on Daniel Negreanu's VLOG, he believes he'll easily out perform several $1 picks.
Only time will tell if Kessler's claim will be true, but you can be assured that he will be playing a full schedule with an emphasis on mixed games.
