Tanner Enoch moved all in under the gun for 50,000, Zachary Eichenbaum called from the small blind, and James Blazek called from the big blind. Any further betting would create a side pot.

Both players checked to the turn on a board of 9s9c2h10c, Eichenbaum bet 75,000, Blazek moved all in, and Eichenbaum called. All three players showed their cards.

Zachary Eichenbaum:  Kc10h  (two pair, tens and nines)
James Blazek:  Ks10s  (two pair, tens and nines)
Tanner Enoch:  Kh6c  (king high)

Enoch was drawing dead, and the meaningless river card was the 7h. Eichenbaum and Blazek chopped the pot with their identical two pair to eliminate Enoch in fifth place.

Zachary Eichenbaum  –  450,000  (30 bb)
James Blazek  –  250,000  (17 bb)
Tanner Enoch  –  Eliminated in 5th Place  ($4,145)

With four players remaining from a field of 61 entries, the average chip stack is around 380,000 (25 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $5,325 each.
