Bradley Jansen: XxXx / A♥3♠3♥6♦ / Xx
Kazuhiro Shirasawa: XxXx / 10♦Q♣A♦5♥ / Xx
Hasan Kural: XxXx / 7♦J♠6♥10♥ / Xx - folded on seventh street
Action picked up on fourth as Jansen led with the ace up and both opponents put in the call.
Jansen kept up the pressure the whole way, leading every street. On seventh, Shirasawa took some time before he elected to call, and Kural got out of the way.
Jansen revealed 8♥5♣3♦ in the hole for trip threes, but they were second best as Shirasawa tabled K♥J♣10♠ in the hole for broadway and he scooped a sizeable pot off the start-of-day chipleader as the bubble looms.
