Jeffrey Homer completed the small blind to 100,000, and Nancy Birnbaum checked her option in the big blind.

The flop came 9c2c2h, and Birnbaum quickly got it all in for about 500,000 with Kd9s for two pair, nines and deuces. But Homer turned over 7c2d for trip deuces. Birnbaum needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the 6c, the river card was the 5h, and the trip deuces held up for Homer to win the pot and eliminate Birnbaum in third place.
