On a flop of {Jc}{6c}{7h}, Joe Cashen bets 800,000 and Kevin Wang makes it 2,100,000. Joe goes all in and Kevin calls.
Joe: {7c}{6h}
Kevin: {Jd}{5s}
Joe has flopped two pair, while Kevin has top pair and a runner-runner straight draw. The turn is {8h}, giving Joe the double-ended straight draw outs. Two jacks in the deck are also outs, as are three fives. The river bricks out with a {10d} and Joe now leads four to one.
Two hands later, Joe has a five to one chip lead, and they get it all in preflop. Joe has {9c}{9h} and Kevin has {3h}{3c}. The board runs out {Qc}{Kh}{9d}{5c}{6h} and the trip 9s on the flop seals Kevin’s fate in second place.
