During the Razz round, Matt Vinke got it all in on third street for 34,000, and there was a 22,000 side pot between Brandon Caputo and Michael Rosenberg.

Matt Vinke:  (XxXx) 8xKx4x6x
Brandon Caputo: (XxXx) 3xJxQxKx
Michael Rosenberg: (XxXx) 7x5xAx3x

4th Street: Rosenberg bet 15,000, and Caputo called.

5th Street: Rosenberg bet 30,000, and Caputo called.

6th Street: Rosenberg bet 30,000, and Caputo folded as his best possible hand could be jack-low.

Matt Vinke:  (Ax6x) 8xKx4x6x (2x)
Michael Rosenberg: (Ax4x) 7x5xAx3x (Qx)

Vinke was drawing dead on sixth street, as the best hand he could make would be an 8-6, and Rosenberg already had a 7-5.

Vinke made his 8-6, but it was too little, too late, and Rosenberg won the pot to eliminate Vinke in fourth place.
