After Steven Spunt raises to 55,000 in middle position, Daniel Rezaei (pictured) three-bets to 160,000, leaving himself 10,000 behind. Action folds back to Spunt who raises all-in and Rezaei calls.

The Diamond 9Club 6Diamond 8 flop is great for Rezaei, giving him a straight draw to go with his leading pair, but the Diamond K on the turn brings a flush draw and straight draw of his own to Spunt, with tens no longer of use to Rezaei.

The river is the Heart Q, bringing Spunt the win with a pair of queens to bring the field one elimination away from the two-table redraw.
