In Level 32 with blinds of 40,000/80,000 and an ante of 10,000, "ClarkWesterfeld" completed the small blind and "rumpthumper" checked their option from the big blind.

The flop was {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and "rumpthumper" check-called a bet of 110,000 from "ClarkWesterfeld."

The turn came {8-Clubs} and "rumpthumper" checked a second time. "ClarkWesterfeld" kept on the attack with another bet, this time for 350,000. "rumpthumper" took a few moments to think and then check-raised all in for around 2.1 million. "ClarkWesterfeld" immediately called.

"rumpthumper": {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
"ClarkWesterfeld": {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Both players improved on the turn, with "rumpthumper' turning two pair that left them needing to hit a four outer to stay alive as "ClarkWesterfeld" had improved to the nuts after hitting a straight. The river {j-Hearts} paired the board, but it was not one of the two pairs that "rumpthumper" needed to stay alive and they were eliminated in second place, taking home a prize of $5,832 for their efforts.

Meanwhile, "ClarkWesterfeld" has taken down the tournament and earned the first-place prize of $8,424 to go along with it. A recap of the tournament will be posted shortly.
