Asher Neaman raised to 18,000 in middle position, Phil Rigby three-bet to 40,000 on the button, and Neaman called.

The flop was 8h3d2d, Neaman checked, Rigby bet 45,000, and Neaman called.

The turn was the Kh, Neaman moved all in with a covering stack, and Rigby called all in for 159,000 with KcKs for a set of kings. Neaman showed AcQs and was drawing dead.

The river was a meaningless 2c and Rigby doubled into the chip lead.

Phil Rigby  –  503,000  (84 bb)
Asher Neaman  –  360,000  (60 bb)
