Cary Katz moved all in for 48,000 from the small blind on a flop of 6♠9♥A♠ and James Obst put him at risk in the hijack.

Cary Katz: 10♥10♦9♦9♣ All in
James Obst: A♣5♠4♣2♠

Katz was ahead with his set, while Obst had a pair and flush draw. The 2♣ gave Obst additional outs with the nut flush draw and a straight draw, but Katz held on through the 4♥ river to secure the double up.

Nick Guagenti was among the latest players sent to the rail, with the dealer shouting out "payout" as Guagenti left the table.

"Nick, be sure to collect your zero dollars and zero cents," David Baker teased from another table.
