On a board of {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {10-Hearts} Amit Makhija is already all in. With 2,000 in the side pot, Howard Lederer was first to act and bet 6,000. His opponent on the button called.

The river brought the {10-Clubs} . Lederer checked and the button bet 6,600.

Howard Lederer tanked for a minute, and it looked as if he considered calling, but eventually mucked {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} .

Makhija showed pocket fours for a full house, however, the button showed {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} for queens full to take down the pot and eliminate Amit Makhija from the tournament.
