Victor Nassif:  (XxXx)  2cAhQhJd
Adam Walter:  (XxXx)  3d5sKs3s

5th Street:  Adam Walker bets 60,000, and Victor Nassif calls.

6th Street:  Adam Walker bets 60,000, Victor Nassif raises, and Walker calls all in for 70,000. Both players turn over their cards:

Victor Nassif:  (As5c)  2cAhQhJd
Adam Walter:  (8c4d)  3d5sKs3s

Nassif had a pair of aces with no low draw, and Walter had a pair of threes with an 8-5 low draw. Walter needed to improve to stay alive.

Victor Nassif:  (As5c)  2cAhQhJd  (9h)
Adam Walter:  (8c4d)  3d5sKs3s  (10c)

Walter missed all of his outs on seventh street, and with neither player making a qualifying low, Nassif wins the pot with his pair of aces to eliminate Walter in third place.
