William Baribeault: {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Faisal Siddiqui: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The {q-Diamonds} landed on the turn, giving Siddiqui an open ender and Baribeault needed to dodge to stay alive. A {k-Diamonds} peeled off on the river, shifting the lead to Siddiqui who paired his king, pulling in the pot and Baribeault was sent packing.
