Three-way to fifth street, Valentin Vornicu bet out to force a fold from Seamus Cahill and a call from Nikolay Fal. Vornicu then barreled on fifth, sixth, and seventh streets, earning two calls. Fall couldn't call on the river, showing a ten among his hole cards for an open-ended straight draw on fifth. However, Fal never got there and had to lay down on seventh.
Fal:
