In two hands, Joe Ebanks was able to finish off Bill Khourie and gain control of almost 80% of the chips in play.

The action started when Ebanks and Khourie were heads up after a 75,000 preflop raise. Ebanks called and the two saw the {6-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop. Ebanks checked and Khourie bet 80,000. Ebanks called.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and Ebanks checked again. This time Khourie bet 140,000 and Ebanks called.

The river was the {5-Spades} and Ebanks bet 350,000 into the board that was a six-high straight. Khourie called and Ebanks showed him the bad news. Ebanks had a flush with the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}. Khourie was slightly annoyed and it appeared he didn't see the possible flush.

That left Khourie pretty short and the two players got it all in when Ebanks was in the small blind and Khourie in the big. Ebanks had {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} versus the {a-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} of Khourie. But like most of the day, Ebanks can't miss and he turned a straight on the {6-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{5-Hearts} board.

Khourie earned $24,900 for his third place finish. Ebanks has now eliminated the last six players and has a massive chip lead over Jeremy Detamore entering heads up play.
