Francisco Hernandez (X)(X) / {3-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {A-Hearts} / (X)
Cyndy Violette (X)(X) / {7-Spades} {2-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} / (X)
Mikhail Smirnov (X)(X) / {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {A-Spades} {7-Clubs} / (X)

We caught the action on fifth street, Violette betting out and getting called by both opponents. Violette led again on sixth, Smirnov called, Hernandez raised, and both Violette and Smirnov committed another bet. All hell broke loose on the river as the action was four-bet three ways.

Smirnov showed {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {6-Clubs} for an ace-high flush and took the high while Violette tabled {A-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} , winning the low with 6-5-3-2-A. Hernandez mucked. He is down to 23,000 while Violette is up to 111,000 and Smirnov is sitting on 93,000.
