The action was four ways to the flop between Connor Drinan, Yong Wang, Johannes Becker and Phil Hellmuth, with Hellmuth all-in before the flop.
Becker would control the action as both Drinan and Wang check-called three streets worth of bets from Becker to create a side pot, with a final board of 6♥Q♥8♥9♥8♠.
Hellmuth: K♠Q♣J♣10♣
Drinan: A♠6♦4♦2♣
Wang: A♣5♠5♣2♦
Becker: K♥K♣J♥J♠
No low hand was possible, so Becker would win a sizeable pot with a king-high flush, eliminating the sixteen-time bracelet winner.
