Lou Garza potted from the cutoff, and Richard Kirsch made the call from the button. Youness Barakat then shoved from the small blind, Garza went over the top, and Kirsch folded.
Youness Barakat: A♦K♥J♣9♣
Lou Garza: A♠K♠10♦6♠
Barakat saw a great flop, hitting kings and nines on 9♥K♦3♣. The 3♦ turn had him one card away from a double, but the 10♥ river improved Garza to a better two pair, ending Barakat's tournament early.
