Tyler Dietz opened to 150,000 from the cutoff and Andy Spears three-bet to 420,000 in the small blind. Dietz made the call and a {7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop was delivered.

Spears checked and then snap-called when Dietz shoved all in.

Andy Spears: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Spears was in great shape to double up but a {10-Hearts}{q-Hearts} run out gave Dietz a flush and Spears was sent to the rail in fourth.

Bill Murray put himself at risk preflop and Tyler Dietz looked him up. Murray was behind with the {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} but had two live cards against Dietz's {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

The board favored Dietz heavily though as it ran out {j-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and a full house sunk Murray who departed in eighth place.
