In a bloated pot on a {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} completed board, Marius Gierse had bet in the small blind, Stephen Chidwick had all his chips already committed in the big blind, and Elio Fox had a decision in early position and ultimately folded.

Gierse showed {8-Spades}{7-Spades} for a straight to defeat Chidwick's {q-Spades}{9-Spades}, and Gierse continued his climb near the top of the leaderboard.
