Miguel Martinez raised to 30,000 under-the-gun and Ryan Hoberg called in the cutoff. Ira Schwartz called on the button before Nigel Murray moved all in out of the big blind for 160,000. Martinez tanked for a few moments before folding and Hoberg moved all in over the top.

Schwartz quickly folded and it was a race for Murray’s tournament life with his 10d10s up against Hoberg’s AcQc.

The flop is AhJh2c and Hoberg takes the lead after flopping an ace. The turn was the 8d and the river was the Jd to eliminate Murray in sixth place.

Murray takes home $2,508 and Hoberg takes the chip lead.

Ryan Hoberg – 605,000
