Stephen Chidwick was all in for his last few chips from the small blind. Jason Mercier (big blind) and Ryan Riess (under the gun) were in the pot with him.

The side-pot remained the same as both players checked {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}. Mercier then check-folded to a bet on the {9-Hearts} turn. Chidwick showed {9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for two pair but was drawing slim against the {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} of Riess.

The river {3-Hearts} made things official: Chidwick eliminated.
