Jared Bleznick limped from under the gun and action folded to Ben Lamb in the small blind who completed.
Matthew Wantman made it 20,000 to go and was called in both places.
The flop came [4h3h3d] and the action checked through.
The dealer burned and turned the [Td] and Lamb checked before Wantman bet 28,000. Bleznick quickly got out of the way.
Lamb used a time extension before tossing his cards into the muck.
The very next shuffle Sean Winter opened to 13,000 from the cutoff and action folded to Wantman in the small blind who announced a three bet of the pot to 47,000. Winter already had calling chips in the middle before Wantman could cut out the raise.
The flop came [2d7d8s] and Wantman quickly announced pot. Winter mucked immediately.
