Brian Breck: XxXx / 2♥6♠A♠3♥ / Xx
Jeff Madsen: XxXx / A♣9♠Q♣ - folded on fifth street
Philip Sternheimer: XxXx / 5♠J♥A♥K♣ / Xx
Madsen completed, Sternheimer called, and Breck called from the bring-in.
Madsen checked to Sternheimer on fourth who bet and both opponents called. Sternheimer bet again on fifth and only Breck called this time.
Sternheimer would lead again on sixth and seventh, with Breck calling down quickly. Sternheimer tabled Q♠J♠9♦ in the hole for a lone pair of jacks, as Breck revealed 6♦4♦2♣ for two pair, sixes and twos, which were enough for the win.
