Alan Kelleher completed in the small blind with {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Ronan Sweeney with {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} three-bet to 600,000 from the big blind. Kelleher elected to call.

The flop was {8-Spades}{9-Spades}{q-Spades}.

Kelleher shoved with his pair and flush draw and Sweeney called with his top two pair.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, giving Sweeney a full house, so the {k-Spades} flush for Kelleher was no good and he was eliminated.
