Reza Yazdi, who won this very event one year ago, opened for 800 from middle position and Chuck Tipton three-bet to 2,000 from the hijack. Action folded back to Yazdi, who called to see a {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop. Yazdi proceeded to check-call a bet of 4,000, and then checked the {7-Clubs} turn. Tipton bet 8,000, Yazdi moved all in, and Tipton called off for just a bit less.

Tipton: {q-Hearts}{q-}
Yazdi: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Yazdi flopped trip nines to pull ahead of Tipton's queens, and he held when the {J-Hearts} blanked on the river. Tipton immediately made his way to the registration desk to reenter.
