Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action exploded on the turn between Steffen Sontheimer and Erik Seidel with the board reading {3-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}.

The latter checked and the former took the opportunity to bet 65,000. Seidel, who earlier today finished second in Event #3 for $576,000, responded by check-raising all in for what looked to be roughly 200,000 and Sontheimer snap-called.

Sontheimer: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Seidel: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}

Seidel had turned two pair, but the same card gave Sontheimer a set. Seidel needed an ace on the river to survive, but one wasn't in the cards as the {8-Hearts} blanked.
