James Cheung: A♣10♦8♣/A♥4♣7♦4♦
Naoya Kihara: XxXx/Q♣K♦J♥6♥/Xx
Allen Kessler: XxXx/K♣3♠5♦ - folded on fifth street

James Cheung completed and was called by Naoya Kihara and Allen Kessler for a three-way pot.

Kihara and Kessler called a bet from Cheung on fourth street, and Cheung bet again on fifth. Kihara raised, which got a fold from Kessler and a call from Cheung.

Cheung paired his four on sixth street and bet on both sixth and seventh and Kihara called him down.

"Ace-up," Cheung said as he revealed his holding. Kihara couldn't beat it and mucked — sending the pot Cheung's way.
