Action picked up on the flop of J39 where Eli Karp, who was on the button, was faced with a raise to 35,500 from Jason Zipfel in the small blind after having bet 6,000. Karp made the call.

The turn landed the 6, Zipfel moved all in for 8,800 to put himself at risk, and Karp quickly called.

Jason Zipfel: A994 All in
Eli Karp: Q1073

Zipfel's set of nines held against Karp's open-ender as the river fell the 7, earning him the double up.

Zipfel took down Event #35: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha for a career-best score of $411,560 earlier in the series. He will look to follow up his performance with another deep run in the 10k.
