fish2013 called bencb789's cutoff raise on the button with A-A and Fedor "CrownUpGuy" Holz also called from the big blind. Bencb789 bet 8,811 on the K-Q-6 flop into a pot of 26,700 and both of his opponents called.

After a Deuce hit the turn bencb789 slowed down and checked after which fish2013 bet 21,784 into a pot of 53,113.

The next player to be eliminated was Igor "lechuckpoker" Kurganov, he limped in from the small blind with a stack of roughly 68,000 with Q-J and called Holz's raise of 10,600. Kurganov check/called a 12,000 bet on the J-8-2 flop then check/called all-in after the turn came a Ten (J-8-2-Tboard).

Holz showed 9-5 offsuit for an open-ended straight draw and got there when a Seven hit the river.
