Heath was the only player to match the bet, and the players turned their cards over.
John Kincaid: K♥Q♦
Ben Heath: 8♦8♣
The board ran out a very clean 9♥3♥7♠7♦10♥ for Heath and Kincaid vacated his seat.

Martin Kabrhel has been up to his usual antics since taking his seat for Day 2, and a limp from him in the cutoff sparked off a wild hand.
Joao Vieira called from the button, and Chance Kornuth also called from the small blind. Nacho Barbero checked his option in the big blind.
The blinds checked to Kabhrel on the K♠5♦3♦ flop, and he bet 30,000.
"Not like that!" Kabrhel cried out his new catchphrase as Vieira raised to 120,000. The decision was on Kornuth, and as he thought over his option, the USA national anthem began playing, and like a true patriot, Kabrhel stood up while "The Star-Spangled Banner" boomed over the tannoy. Kabrhel, while Kornuth was still thinking, implored Alex Kulev to join him in standing up.
Kornuth then shoved for 375,000 total, as the music sounded off. Barbero then announced a raise of 500,000, and the table questioned whether it was a legal size. After some confusion and debate, it was determined that Barbero had to make it 630,000. Kabrhel then folded, and Vieira followed suit for the cards to go on their backs.
Chance Kornuth: 5♠3♠
Nacho Barbero: K♦4♦
Kornuth had bottom two pair while Barbero had plenty of outs with his top pair and flush draw.
The 10♣ gave Barbero two more outs but the A♠ river completed the board for Kornuth to double up.
After some table chatter, Barbero told Kabhrel, "You f***ed everything up with your limp."
"I'm not surprised, everything bad in this country is apparently my fault," Kabrhel quipped back as the dealer began the next hand.

Leon Sturm opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Danny Tang just flat-called on his left. Adrian Mateos three-bet to 225,000 from the big blind and Sturm four-bet jammed all in for around 700,000. Tang quickly folded and Mateos called it off.
Leon Sturm: K♦Q♦
Adrian Mateos: A♠Q♣
"Give me my hand back," Tang muttered, noting that he folded pocket jacks.
The board ran out 10♥8♠2♠8♦A♦ and Mateos made a pair of aces on the river to send Sturm packing.
"Don't give me my hand back," Tang laughed.
