Kenneth Shelton raised the minimum to 4,000 from the button and both the Thibaut Durand in the small blind and the big blind called.

The flop came {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {6-Spades} . Durand checked, the button bet 13,000 and Shelton called. Action was back on Durand who moved all in for 51,500. The big blind re-shipped and made it 95,500. Shelton called all in.

Durand: {5-Hearts} {4-Hearts} Flush draw with two undercards to the board. Running straight draw possibilities.
Big blind: {K-Spades} {9-Clubs} Top two pair
Shelton: {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} Over pair to the board.

The board filled out {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {6-Spades} {J-Hearts} {8-Spades} giving Durand a flush and the main pot to triple up to 170,000. The big blind took the side pot and Kenneth Shelton is eliminated from the tournament.
