Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Ryan Tepen

Ryan Tepen jammed for 74,000 from early position, and Thomas Rennier three-bet shoved for 225,000 from the hijack. Austin McCormick called on the button, and Paul Belken called off his last 100,000 in the big blind.

Ryan Tepen: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Paul Belken: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Thomas Rennier: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Austin McCormick: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Belken's aces held on the {4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop, but McCormick picked up two outs for a triple knockout on the {q-Spades} turn. The table gasped when the {q-Diamonds} hit the river, and McCormick went from last place before the flop to a miracle winner on the river to knock Day 1a chip Leader Tepen, former HPT St. Louis champ Belken, and Rennier all out in a single hand!
