Brek Schutten opened to 600,000 from under the gun. Brandon Wilson three-bet to 2,700,000 from the small blind and called off the 1,800,000 he had behind when Schutten four-bet jammed as the bigger stack.

Brandon Wilson: K♠Q♦ All in
Brek Schutten: K♦K♣

The 10♠9♦2♣ flop provided no help for Wilson, but the A♣ turn gave him outs to Broadway. Instead, the 6♥ was a brick and the Day 1 and 2 chip leader exited in fifth-place.

Brek Schutten opened to 600,000 from the cutoff, and Brandon Wilson defended his big blind.

Wilson check-called bets of 450,000 and 1,000,000 on the flop and turn for the final board to read 9♥3♥6♠10♦Q♠

Wilson checked for a third time and Schutten fired out a third barrel of 2,300,000, leaving 775,000 behind. After using some time banks, Wilson called.

Wilson had J♣9♣ for a pair of nines, but Schutten had 3♠3♣ and recouped some lost chips with his set.

Brek Schutten opened to 1,000,000 in the small blind with A♥K♥ and Michael Rocco defended in the big blind with A♣10♣.

Schutten continued for 550,000 on the flop of 3♣6♣J♠ and Rocco called. Schutten then checked on the 5♣ turn and Rocco checked back.

Schutten checked once more on the 9♥ river and Rocco tried to get value with his flush by betting 2,200,000. Schutten was suspicious and called with his ace-high, only to muck when he saw the bad news.
