Aaron Kupin called the bring-in and Todd Ivens completed. George Alexander made it three bets to go and both Kupin and Ivens called.
Kupin led out for a bet on fourth street and Ivens raised. Alexander three-bet and both Kupin and Ivens called once again.
Alexander caught an ace on fifth and led out for a bet. Kupin folded and Alexander shouted, "Don't fold, don't fold!" as Ivens laid his hand down as well — awarding the 2024 champ the pot.
