Benson Tam, the chip leader coming into Day 2, defended the big blind against the late position open of Mark Strodl.
Heads up, the players saw a flop of 6106. Tam checked and Strodl checked behind.

The turn brought the 2 and Tam took the betting lead. Strodl then raised and Tam declared all-in. Strodl thought briefly before calling and putting himself at risk.

Mark Strodl: J10
Benson Tam: 96

Benson was ahead with his flopped trips. Strodl was looking for a ten on the river, but it came the 9 instead, giving Tam a boat and the pot.
