Ray Fishman: Ax7x / 3xKx6x6x / 7x

David Steicke completed before Ren Lin raised. Ray Fishman made it three-bets and both players called.

Lin bet on fourth street and was called in both spots.

The action checked to Fishman on fifth street and he bet. Steicke raised, which left with 11,000 behind. Ren Lin raised all-in for 73,000 total. Fishman called and Steicke put in his last chips.

An ace on sixth street gave Steicke a nine-eight and made him the favorite. Neither Lin or Fishman could best the Aussie by the end of seventh and Fishman tripled up.

Lin's ten-seven was enough to take the 4,000 side pot.
