Eric Frankson open shoved all in from the button 3 handed, to which Scott Koernig made the call from the SB, as did Brett Hueckman from the BB.

Flop: 7♣ 6♦ 2♥

Koernig, as the biggest stack of the 3, moved all in. Hueckman called after about 5 seconds of deliberation.

Their hands after discards:

Frankson: TT
Koernig: KK
Hueckman: K7

The board ran out clean to secure Scott Koernig the double knock out and give him the victory!

Congrats to Eric Frankson for his third place finish tonight that guaranteed him $1,017!

Congrats to Brett Hueckman for his second place finish worth $1,305!

Ricky Bobby ended up all in preflop against Brett Hueckman in what essentially amounted to a preflop race with KJx against Hueckman’s 99x. The board did not improve Ricky Bobby’s hand, so he exits in 5th place. Good work tonight!

With 6 players left, we’ve got an average stack of 358k. All level long we have not seen a hand make it to showdown, and few if any hands have made it past the flop. We’re still here ready to report any hands with significant action, when the time comes 😉

In the mean time, it’s been entertaining watching 6 players duke it out, trading jabs, waiting for someone else to make a mistake.

Payouts the rest of the way are:
1st: $2,053
2nd: $1,305
3rd: $1,017
4th: $839
5th: $702
6th: $582

We have our 8th place finisher tonight, Cory Gogerty! Well played tonight, sir!

Congrats to the first player to exit our final table tonight, Drew Goodson, in 10th place and taking home $313 for his play. Well done!
