Jarrett Peter opened with a raise to 1,600 from middle position before Adam Katz reraised to 6,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Peter, who moved all in covering Katz.

Katz sighed, "I'm not good enough to fold," before making the call and tabling {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}. But as he suspected he was in trouble against the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} of Peter.

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{J-Spades}{10-Spades} and Peter takes the pot to move to 76,000 as Katz is eliminated.
