Kevin Eyster raised to 35,000 in the cutoff and received an all-in shove from Brandon Eisen on the button for 164,000. Action folded back to Eyster, who took his time to mull things over as the difference in their stacks was very small.
He finally made the call, putting his tournament run at risk and taking them to showdown.
Brandon Eisen: 9♦6♣ 
Kevin Eyster: Q♦10♠
Eyster saw he was ahead when the hands were tabled, but the flop gave Eisen a straight when it fell 10♣8♠7♠. The 6♠ turn gave Eyster some outs for a chop, but the 3♦ river sealed Eisen's double-up.
Thinking he was covered, Eyster prepared to leave, but Eisen, almost sounding apologetic, told him he still had chips to play with.
