Bracelet winner Joey Couden was involved in three-way action on a board reading {j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades}. Andy Bloch was seemingly all in for his final T-100 chip, while the rest of his stack had already gone in before the flop.

Robert Preston, seated in the small blind, had 20,000 in front of him on the flop. Couden raised to 125,000, enough to put Preston to a decision for his remaining, 59,500 in chips. He pondered for a while before calling it off for his tournament life.

Andy Bloch: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Robert Preston: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Joey Couden: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Couden was miles ahead with top-top and faded the other players' outs on the {4-Hearts} turn and {4-Spades} river to score the double elimination.
