On the button, Kristijonas Andrulis raised, big blind Nicholas Seiken defended, and they both drew two. Seiken led out, earning a call, and they took one apiece on the second draw. Seiken continued barrelling but Andrulis raised. Seiken, however, kept his foot firmly on the gas pedal and countered with a three-bet. Andrulis called and they both stood pat.

Seiken fired one more shell and Andrulis called. Seiken quickly turned up for the nuts, claiming the last pot before a one-hour dinner break.
