"I hope you all get unlucky. Good luck, me," Josh Arieh said at the start of the final table.
"I never say good luck. I say good game," John Veltri added.
Yannick Jobin then raised in the cutoff and Veltri called on the button, as did Calvin Anderson in the big blind.
Jobin bet on the 6♥5♥7♥ flop, and both opponents called. He then bet on the 3♥ turn, and only Veltri called this time.
The 6♦ river was checked down, and Jobin showed A♥Q♥7♣3♠ for the flopped nut flush. Veltri had A♣10♦8♦4♣ for a low to chop the pot.
The next hand, Veltri opened in the cutoff and Arieh three-bet on the button. David Bach called in the big blind, as did Veltri.
All three players checked the A♠10♥5♦ flop. Bach then bet on the 8♥ turn, and both opponents called.
Arieh bet on the 2♥ river, and only Bach called. Arieh showed A♣7♠6♦3♥ for a low, while Bach took the high with A♥A♦J♦10♠.
