Scotty Nguyen had raised first to act and picked up two callers in James Calderaro in the cutoff and Mike Leah in the small blind. The three-way flop of {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop was checked to Nguyen and he bet 30,000, which both opponents called. After the {7-Clubs} turn all three players checked and the {9-Diamonds} fell on the river.

Leah and Nguyen checked and defending champion Calderaro bet 75,000. Leah tossed in three T-25,000 chips for the call, while Nguyen sent his cards into the muck. Calderaro turned over {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a straight and claimed the pot.
