: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
On a completed board of A♦K♥3♦3♠J♦ with around 40,000 in the middle, Stephen Song in middle position checked to Kevin Killeen on the button who cut out a bet of 36,000.
Song responded with a check-raise to 135,000, more than half of Killeen's remaining stack. Over two minutes would roll off the clock before Killeen tossed in a chip to call.
However, he would get the bad news as Song tabled K♦10♦ for the nut flush to win the pot. Killeen dropped under six figures while Song continued to ascend up the counts.
