Each player drew one card, after which they showed down.
Landen Lucas: 10x9x8x2x 
Chad Himmelspach: 9x7x5x2x
Himmelspach turned over a 2x for a pair of deuces first. Lucas needed to fade a pair to double up, but he failed to do so when he flipped up an 8x for a higher pair, resulting in his elimination.
