Carlos Mortensen raised to 24,000 from under the gun and Ming Lee three-bet from late position. Tom Koral made the call from the big blind and Koral called as well. The flop came A66 and Lee led out with 12,000. Koral then raised to 24,000 and Mortensen called. Lee three-bet to 36,000 and Koral called the remainder of his stack into the pot.
Mortensen called as well and the turn was the K. Mortensen check-called a bet by Lee and both players checked the 10 on the river. Mortensen then showed JJ76 for a club-flush and Lee mucked. Koral showed down his losing hand, A2108 for two pair and he made his exit in 7th place.

Buchman moved all-in on fourth street with the board reading the following.
Buchman: X-X-105
Dutch Boyd: X-X-6J

After fourth street, Lee and Boyd fought over the side pot with Boyd leading out the whole way. After all was said and done, Boyd turned over his hand of (QQQ)6J52 and Lee mucked. Buchman was showing 105J5 and turned over two of his hole cards, (K2) and was drawing dead to Boyd’s three ladies. He mucked his river card and was ousted in 6th place.
