James Carroll raised to 20,000 from the cutoff and Joey Weissman called from the big blind.

The flop was KhJd6c and Weissman check-called 20,000 from Carroll.

The turn was the 10s and both players checked.

The river was the 8c, Weissman bet 60,000, Carroll raised to 180,000 and Weissman called.

Carroll showed As10c for a pair of tens, while Weissman turned over Kc8d for kings and eights to win the pot and increase his chip lead.

Joey Weissman – 820,000 (103 bb)
James Carroll – 186,000 (23 bb)
