Craig Hartman raised from middle position to 25,000 before Joey Couden three-bet to 93,000 in the cutoff. After it folded back to Hartman, he made the call.
The flop came 7♠2♣8♥ and Hartman bet 10,000 to put Couden all in, and he quickly called.
Joey Couden: A♥A♣9♠2♠ 
Craig Hartman: Q♠J♦10♦8♣
Couden was ahead with his aces but when the turn came the 10♥ it improved Hartman to two pair. But the river being the 7♣ it gave Couden a better two pair with aces and sevens to secure the double up.
At the same table a few hands later, Noah Boeken was eliminated from the tournament.
