First in from the button, Chris "Jesus" Ferguson opened it up with a pot raise to 1,400. Max Pescatori pushed back from the small blind, making it 3,200 total. Ferguson called.

The two men saw the dealer spread the flop: {J-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {10-Hearts}. Pescatori bet out 4,000, and Ferguson called all in for his last 1,450. After the betting was complete, the turn and river were the {K-Hearts} and the {7-Hearts}.

Ferguson had {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}, making him kings up. Pescatori had that beaten though. His {8-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {J-Spades} made a straight on the river, and sent Ferguson walking.
