Ray Fishman raised from under the gun before Masafumi IIjima slid out a three-bet in the cutoff. Maximilian Schindler called in the big blind, with Fishman also making the call.

Schindler checked the 2♦3♦A♣ flop and Fishman moved his last 6,000 into the middle. IIjima and Schindler called to see the 9♣ turn.

Another check from Schindler was met with a bet from IIjima, and the call was made. Schindler checked one last time on the 6♥ river and IIjima moved all in. Schindler called and all three hands were flipped over.

Ray Fishman: A♦K♠J♥5♠ All in
Masafumi IIjima: A♥8♣4♥2♣ All in
Maximilian Schindler: Q♦8♦4♣3♣

IIjima claimed the entire high pot with two pair, tying for the best low with Schindler. That left IIjima taking three-quarters, while Fishman was sent to the rail in 28th place.

"That's the only reason I'm still in," Seed replied.

Seiver bet again on seventh. "I almost had a heart attack," Seed said as he took a peek at his last card before calling. He showed K♠J♦4♦ for trips, while Seiver had A♠5♣3♥ to chop the pot.

"I've heard someone say you should always bet the end, because what if they have a heart attack," Seiver joked after the hand.
