Abrams led out for 300,000 on the 8♥ river and Liedtke responded with a raise to 725,000. Abrams went deep into the tank, but eventually decided to look Liedtke up, who showed K♦J♥10♥9♥ for jacks-full of kings.

Abrams mucked his hand and Liedtke was sent the large pot.

Liedtke check-called bets from Nedelcu on the 3♣A♥3♠ flop and J♣ turn, but check-folded facing a final bet from Nedelcu on the Q♥ river.

"You're probably good," Cipriano said as he revealed J♥6♥ for jacks-up.

Nedelcu tabled 9♣5♣4♦3♥ for trip threes and Cipriano's hand was scooped up and mucked — eliminating him in fifth place.

2-7 Triple Draw

John Cipriano raised from the cutoff and Mark Liedtke three-bet from the big blind to put Cipriano all in. Cipriano called and it was up to the drawing rounds to decide Cipriano's fate.

Liedtke drew two, then one, then two and Cipriano drew one then stood pat the rest of the way.

Liedtke ended with a 9x8x7x6x4x, which was no good against Cipriano's 8x7x4x3x2x for the double up.
