Ben Yu raised the pot to 105,000 in middle position and Tom Marchese three-bet to 345,000 in the small blind. The action was back on Yu who made a four-bet and Marchese was all in for 425,000.

Ben Yu: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Tom Marchese: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

The flop fell {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Yu picked up two pair (three, in fact) to outflop Marchese's pocket aces. The turn was the {7-Spades} and Marchese was drawing slim heading to the river. The dealer burned and turned the {j-Hearts} which improved Yu to a full house and Marchese was eliminated.
