Two of the bigger stacks just clashed at Table 11, with Brian Stevens raising to 4,000 in the small blind and Brian Newman three-betting to 9,000 in the big. Stevens called, and {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flopped. Stevens checked and called 10,000. Both quickly checked the {7-Spades}, and Stevens bet 25,000 on the {2-Spades} river. Newman snap-called, and Stevens showed him {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for a missed double-gutshot.

Newman took it with {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}.
