With the board showing Qh8d6c6h on the turn, Johnathan Norris moved all in, and Theo Lawson thought for a bit before he called all in for about 1,025,000 with KsKc for two pair, kings and sixes.

But Norris turned over 10d6d for trip sixes, and Lawson needed to catch a king on the river to stay alive.

The river card was the 7c, and Norris won the pot with his trip sixes to eliminate Lawson in 54th place.
