In middle position, a player opened to 1,300 and Paul Ephremsen called on the button. In the big blind, Ben Klier made it 7,000 and Ephremsen was the only one to call.
Then on a 
flop, Klier bet 5,000 and Ephremsen called. The turn was a 
and Klier put Ephremsen at risk for his last 11,000. Ephremsen called.
Paul Ephremsen: 
Ben Klier: 
With the set of fives against top pair, Ephremsen was in good position to double up, but the 
river gave Klier a straight. Ephremsen was eliminated, while Klier is back to the starting stack.
