After a big preflop raising war, Marvin Rettenmaier (cutoff) ends up all in for 89,000, Sylvain Loosli (small blind) is all in for 164,000, and Ian O’Hara has them both covered, looking for the double knockout from middle position.

Rettenmaier: QsQh
Loosli: AdQc
O’Hara: AhKd

Loosli was less than thrilled with the news at showdown, but things improved for him in a big way. The board ran out JdTd6d4s2d, and the Frenchman ran down the nut flush to double up and then some. Rettenmaier was eliminated, and O’Hara was left with just a handful of big blinds.

Sylvain Loosli – 425,000 (85 bb)
Ian O’Hara – 59,500 (12 bb)
Marvin Rettenmaier – Eliminated
